We wanted you to have this as well. I don't know if you can do any investigations in Bulgaria, Serbia and Ukraine or Russia where these cases are from as the US doesn't seem to care. Most adoptions have come from Ukraine with an increase recently from Bulgaria.The attached pdf has our blog posts on the subject including some of the actual adoptive parents who have adopted through this ministry in the comments of a few posts; the financial records of Reece's from 2008, 2009 and 2010 which clearly differ from the large amounts of money that people pay to adopt from Reece's and many pages of posts from a public Yahoo group TEEA that discusses the extortion, false listings of children, photolistings, bribing of biological families to sign over rights and other heinous activities that this so-called "Christian" organization is participating in.Reece's has somehow set up multiple funds per child and prospective parents report carrying $30,000 cash to Ukraine and are informed to lie to US Embassy officials about how they came to learn of the child(ren) they are adopting. One of our posts is about a case in which two at once were adopted into a large family that was overwhelmed with special needs children. The Reece's child -Selah Clanton-ended up in a questionable accident 4 months after placement almost drowning and is in a vegetative state.The biological child of this family was saved from this drowning.We have been told that the number of disruptions of the children is upwards of 20 in the past year or so. Some of the TEEA messages by Ellen indicate that over 30% of their placements are of multiple unrelated special needs children with several people adopting 5 at once. The owner Andrea Roberts also has disrupted twice from her own special needs adoptions.Our own tracking of 7 recent Reece's disruptions are as follows. We do not know where these children have gone. Some of these look like visa fraud especially the last case of the 2 boys from Ukraine who disrupted within 5 weeks of coming to the US. That particular case is of concern as we have had people contacting us concerned of their whereabouts.#Date posted or observedCountry of originAgency nameAge of child now (age at adoption) and genderAny possible diagnoses or other information contributing to disruption39April 20, 2011unknownReece’s Rainbow matching serviceAdopted in 2010· Down Syndrome40April 20, 2011unknownReece’s Rainbow matching service6 (5)· Down Syndrome· Adopted to an out-of state family secretly by Reece’s Rainbow41April 20, 2011UkraineReece’s Rainbow matching service2 (2)· child adopted was not the child originally planned to adopt, but this child was pushed on them once in country· possibly same child as one 3 year old from Ukraine in home 5 months and stolen away by another RR member whom she found on their private forum After the Rainbow (this may be a separate child-this was posted on yahoo group)125
