The black couple sued and got custody of the child.
Thanks to things like surrogacy and the laws surrounding it they probably have every legal right to the child as defined by precedent set there.
Women allowed themselves to be considered meat chambers for money to grow other people's babies, and the end result is even when they don't explicitly agree to such an arrangement they can be considered as such in a legal decision.

This is exactly what would have happened, which is why her multiple lawyers told her to give it up.
Murray hired lawyers in multiple states to fight the lawsuit. ... When another DNA test affirmed that Murray was not the mother, her legal team advised her to give up the child to the couple and drop the family-law case. Murray took their advice and gave up the baby in May 2024. She hasn't seen him since.

Women allowed themselves to be considered meat chambers for money ...
Exactly. So "empowered." Women have painted themselves into a corner and they still can't bring themselves to admit it.

Because they don't have to. Based on multiple sightings of her with the child she didn't want it and was actively trying to hide it. Losing it like this is absolutely the best scenario she wanted, and is now trying to act devastated to sue the clinic (rightfully) for a shit ton of money for using her as a surrogate non-consensually.
So the end result is she got to go through a pregnancy once and is going to likely make back all her money she lost and then some, and will then probably repeat the cycle for another baby and has a solid chance of getting what she wants anyway.
They never need to admit it because society is built to prevent them from ever having to truly deal with the consequences of their actions, leaving most of them unable to do so whatsoever.
Surrogacy is per agreement, though. The reason they have a legal right to their child is it is their child, despite the bizarre circumstances of its birth.
But it creates a legal precedence where carrying the baby in your womb doesn't give you legal custody of it.
Without surrogacy as a practice, that wouldn't have been on the books and she made have had a case to argue that since she "grew" it it was hers. As before that, there was little need to separate "my womb" from "my eggs" legally as they were almost always one and the same.
