'Baby Jessica' To Receive $1 Million

Today is the 20th anniversary since toddler Jessica McClure was rescued from a backyard well in Midland, TX. Her disappearance was a national story as Americans were concerned about the well-being of "Baby Jessica".

She's now a 21-year-old wife and mother.

Chip McClure says his daughter is a wonderful mother, whose dream has always been to be a stay-at-home mom. She has a 1-year-old son, Simon.

However, Jessica's quiet existence in Midland could change in 3.5 years.

That's when all the monetary tributes sent to "Baby Jessica" while the world waited for her safe rescue will mature into a payment of $1 million or more. The trust fund is waiting for Jessica to turn 25.

Richardo Morales, Simon's uncle, says Jessica plans to put the money into a fund for her child.
