Here are some stories that I have from around the state. Each one was going to be its own post, but I am running out of time before they become stale:

> dead baby left in dumpster
—
That hits local news in my state every five years or so, and national news (from elsewhere) every now and then. Almost all of them were found when a passer-by heard crying. Which would depend on the baby being alive, and crying at the time, the area being quiet enough for someone not dumpster-diving to notice it, and then deciding to make a call, unless they were agile enough and willing to climb into a full-size dumpster. Which used to take finding a phone somewhere, in the days before cellphones.

Given that, my personal guess is that it happens all the time, and 99% of the infants get compacted in the truck and dumped at landfills.
