'Adult Baby' cleared of fraud, was accused of milking social security checks

This guy was being a little weird before all the gender pronoun people came around. He's been doing this for at least ten years and he could be in his 40's now. I wonder what he's up to! His 'thing' dates back to at least 2011. He was cleared of fraud at one point and was collecting about $800 in social security checks each month so he can live out his life like a baby. He even made custom grown-up size baby furniture like a crib and baby chair for dinner time. WEE WEE WAA WAAAAA.

At some point he was on a TV show which is where this video came from. TLC wrote: "Stanley is 31 years-old & has been obsessed with being an adult baby for the past 18 years. Every day involves spending time in baby mode, which includes wearing footie pajamas, eating baby food in a highchair, wearing a diaper & sleeping in a crib."

ABC News reported on his fraud innocence:

The California man who lives his life as an “adult baby,” complete with adult diapers, bottles, a crib and a mother-figure caregiver, says he has been cleared from suspicion of Social Security fraud and will continue to receive his disability checks. Stanley Thornton, Jr. has a condition called paraphilic infantilism that involves role-playing as an infant. Though paraphilic infantilism is a fetish for some, Thornton explains on his website that he pretends to be a baby because it makes him feel “safe” and helps him cope with the post traumatic stress he suffers from physical and sexual abuse he suffered as a child.

After Thornton’s lifestyle was showcased on National Geographic’s television show “Taboo,” Sen. Tom Coburn, R-Okla., accused him of defrauding Social Security because the episode shows him exhibiting work skills such as building a high chair and operating his website.

Well, this escalated quickly. They called him out for being able to build the furniture, which showed the ability to work, but he threatened to commit suicide. I wonder where he is today?
