Not supported by fact.  You love saying this, but never provide any actual "proof."  Go back, read the Supreme Court opinion.  None of that is in there.  [/quote]

Documents were filed with the Cherokee nation with 3 crucial errors in them, in Dusten Brown's name and birthdate.   Documents were also filed listing her as Hispanic. It hasn't been proven that any of these errors were intentional, but the reverse hasn't been proven either.  It seems particularly unlikely to me that the birthmom wouldn't have known the year of his birth since they were the same age and had attended highschool together. Had these errors not been made, it seems pretty clear that the Cherokee Nation would have proceeded to stop the adoption.

It also seems to me that in adoption, the burden of proof should lie with the people adopting the child.  That is that if they can't prove that they did everything to discover whether this child was legally available, then the adoption can't go through.[/quote]

Misspelling Dusten as Dustin is hardly so egregious that they gave him a fake name, you know.  Having been in a low-level position where I had to verify names against a database, both of those errors would have had me double-checking.  And the child is in fact mostly Hispanic, so I fail to see how that is fraud.  Moreover, it isn't at all clear that the Cherokee Nation would have stopped the adoption.  The father, as you recall, had abandoned his parental obligations - and rights.

What shocks me is how none of you think it is unfair that the birth mom no longer have contact with Veronica.  She chose the Capobiancos and an open adoption, and was in touch with Veronica.  She hasn't seen her since Dusten decided belatedly that he wanted to raise her, since his ex refused to go along with his plan that she raise the child in abject poverty as a single mother.  How is your support of him fair?  [/quote]
