Part 1 - TAPES: We Investigated a Suburban LGBTQ Pedophile Ring. Here's What We Found.

This is Part 1 of a four-part investigative series.

Content Warning: This article contains graphic descriptions of child sexual abuse. Reader discretion is advised.

A months-long Townhall investigation reveals disturbing new details about the affluent LGBTQ-activist couple accused of sodomizing their young adopted sons—now ages 9 and 11—and distributing "homemade" child pornography of the sexual abuse. Half a year after the shocking story made national news, Townhall is the only outlet following up on the criminal case in Georgia that has since seen zero headlines written about it. We've found that it's far, far worse than what was first reported.

Not only did the married men allegedly rape the two boys who were adopted through a Christian special-needs adoption agency, they were pimping out their children to nearby pedophiles in Atlanta-area suburbs, Townhall's follow-up investigation discovered.

Recorded jailhouse calls, a trove of never-before-seen court documents, and testimony from a family member who spoke exclusively with Townhall uncover the extent of the physical and emotional trauma the two elementary school-aged brothers endured as well as the red flags that the state overlooked during the same-sex couple's "faster than expected" adoption process.

The scandal of “stolen” children: the drift of a French association at the heart of a judicial investigation

The association Rayon de soleil for foreign children, still approved by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs in five countries, is of interest to French justice for its activities in Mali in the 1990s. Similar cases have been listed in Romania and the Central African Republic.

It is a first relief after years of despised combat. On September 6, the Paris court called for the opening of an investigation for concealment of fraud following a complaint filed in June 2020 by nine French people adopted in Mali against their adoption organization and their former correspondent in Bamako: Sunbeam of the foreign child (RDSEE) and Danielle Boudault.

All criticize this French organization, still approved by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs in five countries (Bulgaria, Chile, China, South Korea and India), of having implemented "stratagems" to allow "the circumvention of the law with the aim of having them adopted in France, between 1989 and 1996, thus deceiving their parents, both biological and adoptive . To the first, this association would have promised a temporary stay in France for the children. To the latter, RDSEE would have assured that the little Malians had been abandoned by their families of origin.

For five years, Le Monde investigated this association, one of the most important French organizations responsible for the adoption of more than 7,000 children around the world. In Mali but also in the Central African Republic, Madagascar, Haiti, Peru and Romania, RDSEE is suspected of having had children adopted who should not have been, to satisfy international adoption requests. French couples.

Do adoptees have special CPR numbers?

Foreign adoptees always have a social security number with a relatively high serial number, but you cannot determine from the serial number whether the child is adopted. However, special conditions apply to foreign adoptees who came to Denmark between 1976 and 1984.

For adoptees who arrived in Denmark in 2001 or later, many have been surprised that the child has been given a very high serial number, but there is a natural explanation for this.

A CPR number consists of 10 digits: ddmmåå xyzw

ddmmyy is the date of birth, 6 digits.

xyz is a 3-digit serial number, 3 digits

State provides adoption incentives

Jan. 21—ASHTABULA TOWNSHIP — Ashtabula County Children Services officials are waiting for details, but are excited about potential new resources to help children be adopted.

Houses Bill 45 was passed in early January and provides funds to help famileis adopt children.

The Ohio Adoption Grant Program will provide $10,000 to any family adopting a child; $15,000 to any adopting family who was already providing foster care for the child and $20,000 to a family adopting a child with special needs.

The bill is written to allow the Ohio Department of Jobs and Family Services to apply for more money if it looks like the original $15 million will not be adequate to pay for the benefits during 2023.

The details are still being worked out so counties know proper procedures to handle the requests for the grants, said Ashtabula County Children Services Executive Director Tania Burnett.

‘They just vanish’: whistleblowers met by wall of complacency over missing migrant children

As scores of youngsters are disappearing from hotels run by the Home Office and being trafficked across the country, sources claims warnings over their safety were ignored

On the first day of April, 17-year-old Wassim Hamam* disappeared near the bustling centre of Hove. He was never seen again. Days later another teenager, Burim Markaj, 16, vanished nearby. Within hours, a 15-year-old was also reported missing.

The disappearances continued. Four days later Alban Berisha, a 17-year-old whose portrait suggests a pensive, wary character, suddenly vanished from the streets of the Sussex coastal city. The same day, a 5ft 5in 17-year-old, Khalid Muha, was last seen wearing a black bomber jacket and white trainers.

Revealed: scores of child asylum seekers kidnapped from Home Office hotel

Another child went, then another. Detectives investigating the disappearances quickly identified two facts linking the lengthening caseload: all were unaccompanied asylum-seeking children. And all disappeared after staying at the same hotel. But this was no ordinary seaside hotel. The children were staying in a residence run by the Home Office, the government department whose mandate is keeping people safe.

Adopted by their parents’ enemies: tracing the stolen children of Argentina’s ‘dirty war’

After the 1976 coup, the military brutally crushed its opponents. At least 500 babies were taken from their captured parents and given to military couples to raise. Many still live unaware of their true identity

One autumn afternoon in 1983, paediatrician Jorge Meijide was called to an apartment in the small town of Acassuso, on the outskirts of Buenos Aires. His six-year-old patient turned out to have nothing more than a mild flu, but Meijide sensed that something else was wrong in the household.

The woman who claimed to be the child’s mother seemed to him too old to be his parent. On the walls hung photos of a man in military uniform: presumably the boy’s father.

In 1980s Argentina both details were more than suspect. The country was slowly returning to democracy after the “dirty war” waged by the military dictatorship under Jorge Videla, known as the “Hitler of the Pampa”. After the 1976 coup, Argentina’s military set about crushing any potential opposition and eventually 30,000 people were killed or disappeared, almost all of them civilians. Pregnant prisoners were kept alive until they gave birth and then murdered. At least 500 newborns were taken from their parents while in captivity and given to military couples to raise as their own.

The office of Suffolk County District Attorney Kevin Hayden announced Thursday that 52-year-old Kiyoshi Yu of Winthrop had been charged with assault and battery on a child under 14.

Prosecutors say Yu traveled last summer to Bogota to adopt three boys aged 8, 9 and 13.
