It was a sight that jarred motorists on busy Dolphin Expressway.

Westbound traffic suddenly came to a standstill around 2:30 p.m. Thursday, and a woman sprang from her car, holding a baby, screaming for help.

Pamela Rauseo, 37, of West Kendall, quickly got that help for her 5-month-old nephew, little Sebastian de la Cruz, who was turning blue.

Rauseo said she was in a panic, thinking she could not let anything happen to the baby while in her care.

“My sister had trusted me with him,” she told reporters.

Motorists stuck in traffic just east of 57th Avenue swung into action.

Lucila Godoy, 34, of Miami left her 3-year-old son in her car to help Rauseo revive the unconscious infant, who she said was born prematurely and had respiratory issues.

Miami Herald photographer Al Diaz, stopped right behind Rauseo, jumped out of his car.

“I heard screaming,” he said. He saw a woman pop out of the car in front of him “screaming that the baby can’t breathe.”

Diaz quickly jogged through traffic lanes to summon more help. He found Sweetwater police officer Amauris Bastidas, who ran to the scene and took over CPR for Godoy, performing chest pumps while Rauseo breathed into the baby’s mouth.

“I lifted him up in the air and moved him up and down,” Bastidas said. “He started breathing and crying.”

Then the baby stopped breathing again.

The trio frantically started CPR again and got the baby breathing. By that time, more help had arrived.

Capt. Anthony Trim and Lt. Alvaro Tonanez with Miami-Dade Fire Rescue’s hazardous materials unit — also stuck in traffic — jumped out of their separate cars. They were returning from a meeting and happened to hear the emergency call over the radio.

Trim and Tonanez ran up and found Sebastian breathing — but barely.

“The aunt gave him the baby,” Trim said of Tonanez. “He did a quick check and made sure the baby’s airway was open.”

Miami Fire Rescue arrived moments later and rushed Sebastian to Jackson Memorial Hospital’s Pediatrics unit.

The baby was listed in stable condition Thursday evening, a hospital spokeswoman said.

  141. In these days of austerity and relative stress about running into debt, some people balk against the idea of employing a credit card to make acquisition of merchandise or maybe pay for a trip, preferring, instead just to rely on a tried and trusted procedure for making repayment – cash. However, if you have the cash there to make the purchase entirely, then, paradoxically, that’s the best time to be able to use the credit card for several good reasons.

  177. La question se pose à plusieurs titres. Les deux principales figures de l’islam de France ont participé au procès aux assises de Douai en 1997. Et ce n’est pas rien. Dalil Boubakeur, qui vient de tirer sa révérence à la tête de la Grande Mosquée de Paris, a été à l’époque sollicité par la justice pour donner un avis théologique sur la chose. Quant à Amar Lafsar, qui allait rapidement connaître une carrière nationale qu’on lui connaît à la tête de l’UOIF, il a témoigné, en faveur de l’exorciste. Ce qui était assez cohérent. Amar Lafsar voyait en l’exorciste un futur cadre de l’islam de France dans la région. Lafsar comme Boubakeur commençaient leurs carrières à l’époque où l’État balbutiait ses premiers plans pour un islam de France. Et des gens comme l’exorciste, prêchant en français et ayant fait des études, correspondaient au casting potentiel. En étant extérieur au sujet, on pouvait penser qu’en 1994 cette affaire n’était qu’un accident collatéral, un résidu de magie arrivé dans les valises des Algériens fuyant le pays après la guerre. C’est ce que la justice a pu croire peut-être, et d’autant plus qu’en 1994, le nouveau Code pénal qui entrait en vigueur venait d’être épousseté des vieilles contraventions liées à la magie ou la divination. On entrait dans le XXIe siècle et la bulle internet. Toute autorité religieuse proche de ses fidèles aurait dû voir l’explosion de la pratique. Mais surtout le fait que celle-ci était importée d’une dictature théocratique, dont l’expansion de la religion se faisait aux dépens de toutes les autres. Mais peut-être qu’aucun responsable du culte musulman ne voulait s’opposer de manière trop visible au royaume saoudien. D’autant que les autorités saoudiennes ont pris parti dans cette affaire. L’exorciste a bénéficié du soutien du grand mufti d’Arabie Saoudite (autant dire l’équivalant du pape !) en défense, arguant de la bonne foi du chasseur de démon et au passage faisant état de la peine qu’il aurait purgé si l’évènement s’était passé là-bas. En l’occurrence il n’aurait pas été poursuivi. On a du mal à s’imaginer le juge d’instruction français de l’époque recevant cette lettre venue d’une des pires dictatures au monde. Il y a quelque chose qu’on rappelle trop rarement quand il s’agit de parler de l’influence de l’islam saoudien en France. Tous les musulmans du monde prient en direction de la Mecque. S’y rendre est une obligation religieuse. Mais on n’y voyage pas comme ça, le royaume ferme ses portes à qui il veut. Et c’est certainement une des raisons de la grande complaisance de certains responsables du culte à l’égard du royaume. La pratique de l’exorcisme à la saoudienne a explosé en trente ans et dans certains pays comme l’Algérie il y a eu tellement de victimes que le gouvernement a envisagé un temps l’interdire. En France on parle souvent de l’islam pour évoquer les défaillances de ses institutions ou les franges les plus radicalisées. Entre les deux, il y a une majorité silencieuse de fidèles, des familles comme celle de Louisa ou la mienne qui vivent leurs malheurs à huis clos, loin de la politique, c’est vers eux que je préfère porter le regard.
