A man in California has been arrested for arranging to sell his 14-year-old daughter for $US16,000, 100 slabs of beer and several cases of meat, police said overnight.
Authorities in the rural farming community of Greenfield, 225 kilometres south-east of San Francisco, said the 36-year-old Hispanic man sold the child to an 18-year-old man who was to marry her.
The case came to light after the father complained to police that his daughter's prospective husband had failed to pay him under the terms of their deal, which was brokered by a third party.
The man has been arrested on human trafficking charges while the 18-year-old has been booked for statutory rape.
The child has been returned to the family.
Greenfield Police Department said in a statement there had been several cases where children had been sold or offered for sale, including one incident involving a 12-year-old.
"While each case is unique, the issues of arranged marriages involving minor females or the selling of minor females to older males have become a local problem," the statement said.
It's heart stopped, that's good enough for me. Fuck you'd have to really like your next door neighbour to resuscitate their dog via the nostrils.

I eKspecially hate her for claiming not to know the Wii could be "so dangerous".
Anything would be dangerous in the hands of this moron.
Yeah, she's got gall warning people at the end. Reminds me of that radio ad with the guy who got hit by a train and lost an arm and leg, telling you to be careful near train tracks. Because clearly I need advice from someone that's already been hit due to incompetence/stupidity.
werd, who the fuck resuscitates a dog??? If my neighbour rang ME up and said their dog was dead I would go "oh man, that sucks, do you wanna borrow a shovel or sumthin'?' NOT 'HOLD ON! Give him 2 cc's of sodium solution STAT!! put him in room 4 I'll be there in 1 minute!!!'

Three US siblings whose names have Nazi connotations - and whose family made headlines after a bakery refused to put one of the children's names on a cake - have been placed in the custody of the state.
Holland Township Police Sergeant John Harris says workers from the state Division of Youth and Family Services on Tuesday removed three-year-old Adolf Hitler Campbell and his younger sisters, JoyceLynn Aryan Nation Campbell and Honszlynn Hinler Jeannie Campbell from their home on Tuesday, The Express-Times of Easton, Pennsylvania, reported.
Harris says family services did not tell police the reason the children were removed.
Agency spokeswoman Kate Bernyk says it does not comment on specific cases.
The children and their parents, Heath and Deborah Campbell, received attention last month when a supermarket bakery refused to put Adolf Hitler Campbell's name on a birthday cake.
But that's your own dog. If my neighbour calls me and asks if I can go mouth to mouth with their pet I'm probably going to say no.
Maybe the chick was a vet and they didn't report that... but I think the average person isn't going to slip their neighbours dog a wet one.
If my cat was in need of the kiss of life I would go for it, but not someone elses... unless she was hot, and would thank me in a sexy fashion after rescuing said pet.
There's no way I'd do it. I'd have enough trouble resuscitating a human if they were sufficiently seedy-looking or had bad breath, I'm not about to snog-a-dog.
Gamma, my old housemate was a doctor, and she would DREAD seeing passed out junkies in the street (we live in St Kilda so we see a few). The last thing she ever wanted to do was resuscitate them, but unfortunately she was expected to...
Actually he says it can't be rape if you force your wife to have sex. He also says it's ok to touch her up if she gets lippy. But don't make her bleed or bruise her....that's a bit crook. At least they recognise that you have to hide it from the public. I think it's a sign that Muslims are moving forward.
Goat detained over armed robbery
LAGOS (Reuters) - Police in Nigeria are holding a goat on suspicion of attempted armed robbery.
"The group of vigilante men came to report that while they were on patrol they saw some hoodlums attempting to rob a car. They pursued them. However one of them escaped while the other turned into a goat," Kwara state police spokesman Tunde Mohammed told Reuters by telephone.
Someone photoshop Prez Blairs going down on Howard or something and that pic will be complete!
