Thousands of dollars were lost. with inestimable emotional travail for the brokenhearted prospective parents. Their acute pain is not as great. however. as was the trauma of the young Mexican woman who paid the same Southwestern agency to send her daughters to temporarily live in U.S. homes. She planned to later immigrate and rejoin them. only to find that they had been permanently adopted by another American family who were similarly deceived by the disreputable firm in question. Despite growing instances of these problems. there are no Federal statutes to prosecute those who victimize prospective parents with their agencies fraudulent claims. There is no practical recourse for the waiting parentstobe.
