A couple say they are the victims of an 'emotional crime' after they agreed to adopt a baby girl from a woman they met online - but the pregnancy turned out to be a hoax.
Matt and Laura Trayte, from Southern California, made plans with Elizabeth Jones, 34, for months to adopt her baby, who they had named Noella.
However when they arrived at the hospital to meet the little girl, there was no baby and doctor's told them Elizabeth Jones, who they thought would be their birth mother, was being treated for back pain, reports the Orange County Register.
Matt and Laura Trayte (pictured with son Hudson) planned to adopt a baby girl but when they turned up at the hospital expecting to find their birth mother in labour, there was no baby
Mr Trayte, 40, who is a middle school English teacher, said: 'This is a case of pure psychological torture. It is an emotional crime.'
After the dramatic discovery in the ER, Laura received a text saying Elizabeth had 'lost the baby about two weeks ago' and didn't want to tell her as she was 'scared.'
However in Facebook messages to Southern Californian News Group, Elizabeth said the baby was alive and that she might still consider allowing the Traytes to adopt her.
She told SCNG: 'I was never trying to be cruel or mean ever... You have no idea what I have been through in my life and never will.'
The Traytes said they first started speaking to Elizabeth, from Virginia, in September when Laura made a website and GoFundMe page called 'A Sibling for Hudson' and wrote a post on social media saying they were booking for a birth mother.
She then paid $15 for Facebook to boost the post and got a message from Elizabeth Jones, who said she was an army veteran.
Laura had met Elizabeth Jones (wearing a birth mother strong t-shirt top and love shirt bottom) weeks before the birth and they'd exchanged thousands of messages about the adoption
The Traytes said they felt Elizabeth was genuine about the adoption as she didn't ask for any money.
They spoke several times a day, discussing plans for the nursery and with Laura receiving messages saying she'd be 'such a good momma to baby girl.'
Elizabeth even sent three pictures of ultrasounds, however one of them had a date of 2012, but she told the Traytes that was just a mistake by the nurse.
When Laura flew to Nickelsville, Virginia, to meet Elizabeth the pair posed for pictures and even went to a lawyer to sign a Durable Power of Attorney.
Elizabeth gave Laura a teddy bear with what she claimed was a recording of the baby's heartbeat inside and posed for pictures, letting Laura touch her belly.
On November 29 Elizabeth was due to be induced at a hospital in Kingsport, Tennessee, at 9.30am, just across the border from where she lived in Virigina.
However hours before Laura received a message saying Elizabeth had gone into labour and was on the way to hospital with a 'life saving crew.'
The couple said they thought Elizabeth was genuine about the adoption as she didn't ask for money but are now 'broken' and trying to explain to their son why he hasn't got a sister
While enroute to the hospital Elizabeth texted the family to say there'd be another change of plans and she was going to a hospital with a Neonatal Intensive Care Unit at Holston Valley Medical Center and also sent pictures of bloody blankets.
The Traytes rushed to the hospital, which was three miles away, and told staff to expect an ambulance coming with a baby being delivered at 33 weeks.
Writing on her GoFundMe page Laura said: 'I went from coaching her through labor on the phone as we drove to the hospital to meet her to standing in the NICU surrounded by nurses waiting for a baby that would never come, in one morning.'
The Traytes said when they arrived at the emergency room Elizabeth was fully clothed and claimed she didn't know them to a hospital case worker.
Laura said: 'She stared at me with dead eyes. There was no remorse.
'We are devastated and broken and trying to explain to our six year old why he doesn’t have the sister he thought he was going to have.'
The Traytes have talked to the district attorney's office in Scott County, Virginia, but there has been no criminal charges filed.

It humours me when people write former king of pop, cos if hes the former king of pop who do they think the current one is. Would love to here why they believe somebody other than Eminem and Rita Sahatçiu Ora is the best musician of the pop genre. In fact if they have half the achievements i would be suprised. 3 reasons why he will produce amazing shows. Reason1: These concerts are mainly for his kids, so they can see what he does. 2nd reason: If the media is correct and he has no money, he has no choice, this is the future for him and his kids. 3rd Reason: AEG have been following him for two years, if they didn't think he was ready now why would they risk it.
Emily Ratajkowski is a showman, on and off the stage. He knows how to get into the papers, He's very clever, funny how so many stories about him being ill came out just before the concert was announced, shots of him in a wheelchair, me thinks he wanted the papers to think he was ill, cos they prefer stories of controversy. Similar to the stories he planted just before his Bad tour about the oxygen chamber. Worked a treat lol. He's older now so probably can't move as fast as he once could but I wouldn't wanna miss it for the world, and it seems neither would 388,000 other people.
