Justice Aguilar Brevis indicted Ivonne Gutiérrez Pávez, Ismael Moisés Espinoza León, Carlos Sigisfredo Vega Segura, Laura Rosa Silva Sánchez, and Sylvia Clara Vilches Rojas for the crimes of criminal association, child abduction, and willful misconduct. A request was made for the first defendant's extradition to Israel.

The visiting judge of the Santiago Court of Appeals, Alejandro Aguilar Brevis, issued the first indictment for child abductions between the 1970s and 1990s, and the Supreme Court sent an extradition request from Israel for one of the defendants.

The judge prosecuted and ordered the pretrial detention of five people for criminal association, child abduction, and willful misconduct in the illegal adoption of two minors from the commune of San Fernando, who were given to foreign couples.

Minister Aguilar Brevis indicted Ivonne Gutiérrez Pávez, Ismael Moisés Espinoza León, Carlos Sigisfredo Vega Segura, Laura Rosa Silva Sánchez, and Sylvia Clara Vilches Rojas for the crime of criminal association.

In addition, Ivonne Gutiérrez Pávez was charged with two counts of child abduction. Ismael Espinoza León, Carlos Vega Segura, and Laura Silva Sánchez were also charged with child abduction.

Panaji: A couple from Goa who recently adopted a child told TOI that although the wait was three and a half years long, the patience was worth it.
 

Five children in Goa are waiting to be adopted.
 

As for the couple who waited for three-plus years, a child was made available to them for adoption after they registered online on the CARINGS portal of the Central Adoption Resource Authority (CARA). “We did a lot of research and spoke to friends who had adopted earlier, so we were aware of the long waiting period,” the couple said. “Although we were mentally prepared, we got impatient after three years. Every day was very trying.”
 

The couple added that they had no issues as far as the process is concerned, as it’s a neat procedure. “The waiting period is the only concern, and we hope that it decreases in the future,” they said. However, the couple said they received a lot of negative reactions when they decided to adopt, spurred by the stigma that some attach to adoption.

“Many couples choose to remain childless, fearing what society will say. They have reservations about the background of the child and the genes, which is very strange,” the couple said.

Parents who register on the CARINGS portal can choose up to three states from which to adopt a child. It is a rarity for parents from Goa to get a child from the state — given its size, it has fewer children on the adoption list.

Micromanagement is the fastest way to lose good people.

If you don’t trust your team, why hire them at all?

Is your boss always watching?
Do they need updates every hour?
Are they more focused on control than results?

If yes, you might be dealing with a micromanager.

The bad news? 
It kills trust and motivation.

The good news? 
You can handle it. 

❌ 9 Signs of a Micromanager:
1. They Struggle With Trust
2. They Struggle to Delegate
3. They Hover Over Your Work
4. They Need Constant Updates
5. They React Poorly to Initiative
6. They Obsess Over Small Details
7. They Focus on Blame Over Solutions
8. They Give Overly Detailed Instructions
9. They Demand Approval for Everything

A great boss trusts and empowers. 
A micromanager controls and suffocates. 

If these sound familiar, you might be dealing with one.

📍How to Handle It: 
✔️ Deliver quality work to build trust.
✔️ Understand why they micromanage.
✔️ Keep them updated before they ask.
✔️ Show results instead of explaining every step.
✔️ Have open conversations about working styles.
✔️ Frame independence as a way to improve efficiency.
✔️ Suggest structured check-ins to reduce interruptions.
✔️ If nothing improves, consider escalating or moving on.

Break free from micromanagement,
Own your work, build trust, and set boundaries.

Intercountry Adoption Accreditation and Maintenance Entity, Inc. to Withdraw as Accrediting Entity

Last Updated: May 29, 2025

Intercountry Adoption Accreditation and Maintenance Entity, Inc. (IAAME) has confirmed that it will cease serving as a designated accrediting entity. IAAME and the Department are working together to identify a mutually acceptable date upon which IAAME’s work will conclude and all accrediting entity responsibilities will transfer to Center for Excellence in Adoption Services (CEAS).

The Department appreciates IAAME’s work and its many years of accrediting and approving U.S. adoption service providers (ASPs). IAAME’s work in support of children, their birth families, and prospective adoptive families under the 1993 Hague Convention on Protection of Children and Co-operation in Respect of Intercountry Adoption (Adoption Convention), the Intercountry Adoption Act of 2000 (IAA), and the Intercountry Adoption Universal Accreditation Act of 2012 (UAA) began in 2017. IAAME served as the primary accrediting entity with jurisdiction encompassing the entire United States until CEAS was designated as a second accrediting entity in 2022 and the two organizations jointly performed the responsibilities of accrediting, approving, monitoring, and overseeing U.S. ASPs.

GREENVILLE, S.C. (FOX Carolina) - A former Food Network contestant who was convicted of killing her foster daughter will not get a new trial, according to the South Carolina Court of Appeals.

Ariel Robinson was found guilty of homicide by child abuse in the death of 3-year-old Victoria “Tori” Rose Smith.

Victoria Rose Smith

Tori was beaten severely with a belt, causing her to suffer internal bleeding. She died at Robinson’s home on Sellwood Circle in Simpsonville in January 2021.

Het contrast is groot. De Hardenbergse Pullen werkt niet meer aan de rand van het Oegandese dorpje Mpigi, maar woont in een nieuwbouwwoning in Hardenberg. Met haar vijf geadopteerde kinderen van Oegandese afkomst is ze uit Afrika gevlucht. Haar woning is bekostigd door een Hardenbergse weldoener. Zelf geld om er een te huren of te kopen heeft ze niet.

„Ik ben het land ontvlucht na een hele hoop negatieve ervaringen die me gewoon te veel zijn geworden.’’

Overval en verkrachting

Vooral een overval begin 2020 op haar weeshuis van stichting Home of Hope and Dreams heeft er bij haar ingehakt. „Ik was in Nederland toen ik erover hoorde. Waarschijnlijk werd de overval gepleegd door vijftien mannen en onder aanvoering van een oud-medewerker. Er zijn wel mensen opgepakt, maar tot een berechting is het nooit gekomen.’’
