Ex-Arizona GOP'er Gets 6 yrs for illegal adoption scheme
So, this news crops up on my local news station while checking the weather.
[link to www.wral.com (secure)]

As picked up from AP....
"PHOENIX — A former Arizona politician who admitted running an illegal adoption scheme in three states involving women from the Marshall Islands was sentenced in Arkansas to six years in federal prison. It was the first of three punishments he’ll face for arranging adoptions prohibited by an international compact.

Paul Petersen, a Republican who served as metro Phoenix’s assessor for six years and also worked as an adoption attorney, illegally paid women from the Pacific island nation to come to the U.S. to give up their babies in at least 70 adoptions cases in Arizona, Utah and Arkansas, prosecutors said."

Actually, Evangelina posted this thread Oct of last yr to give some back story to this unraveling.

Have to get off the farm and run many errands, so I won't be able to tend my thread 'til later tonight.

Hope some of you folks will weigh in on your thoughts about this whole scandal.

Wow, alrighty AC! I was thinking it was most definitely a warning shot given but didn't think of it terms as high as Roberts.

Was thinking that 6 yrs is what they normally give white collar paper hangers and personally thought this crime warranted A LOT more than just 6 yrs.

Amazing Polly covered this in one of her vids. The Marshall Islands have been preyed upon in adoption scams for decades.

Well damn...somehow I missed this video and I try hard to keep up w/ her stuff. Thx and will check it out, AC.

I feel that this news is just another sledge hammer hitting the house of cards. There has always been major bank to be made when it comes to the selling of flesh on many levels.

6 years of punishment for selling children and baby farming women, disappointing.

I remember when he got caught with his secretary. He did the adoption stuff while he was on the clock. I think they said if he would have done it on his own time he might not have got caught.

Seriously, my same thoughts (sigh). I know it's been an ancient practice thru' course of history but I've always believed a society who does not cherish and protect children are is just flat out doomed.

And that right there is a classic case of hubris.

Gotta' wonder about the fates of all the kids run thru' this system. And the fates of the mothers.

Makes me think back to Oprah's BFF named John of God and his whole sick operation.
