Last time the petitions received 20,000 signatures.<br /><br /><br /><br />We should also be aware that under the ORIGINAL Cherokee constitution people who are not married would be unable to use Cherokee rights aka the ICWA law.<br /><br /><br />Constitution of the Cherokee Nation<br />'September 6, 1839'<br />Sec. 5<br />The descendants of Cherokee men by free women, whose parents may have been living together as "MAN AND WIFE" according to the customs and laws of this Nation, shall be entitled to all the rights and privileges of this Nation.<br />Done in convention at Tahlequah, Cherokee Nation, this sixth day of September, 1839, George Lowrey, President of the National Convention.<br /><br /><br />Another thing we should be aware of is "ICWA sets federal requirements that apply to state child custody proceedings involving an Indian child who is a member of or eligible for membership in a federally recognized tribe." Keyword here is "ELIGIBLE".....since the Cherokee nation "Of Oklahoma" has no blood requirement....it means ANYONE (member or not) who has at least 1 ancestor on the flawed "Dawes" rolls can have their parental rights taken by the Cherokee nation "of Oklahoma". the child, both parents, all grand parents could have never ever been a enrolled member of the tribe or ever lived anywhere near the tribe could still be subject to this even if they never knew a thing about their ancestors. Your grandparents could of been born in Alaska...you and your parents lived whole life in Alaska....never heard of the Dawes rolls before....then you have a child and the Cherokee nation "of Oklahoma" could litterally step in and remove your parental rights and have your child brought to Oklahoma. This was NEVER the intention of the ICWA law yet people are misusing it for this purpose.<br /><br /><br />Now the Cherokee nation of Oklahoma is a "newly" formed tribe, it is only about 36 years old (formed in 1976 by Ross Swimmer). It is NOT the ORIGINAL Cherokee Nation. However they use a roll that was created in the late 1800's as their "ELIGIBLE FOR ENROLLMENT". What this means is your family and ancestors could have NEVER EVER been associated with this tribe yet this tribe can take your parental rights.<br /><br />To get a better understanding about how dangerous this law can be....tribes themself get to decide their "ELIGIBLE FOR ENROLLMENT", As we know the Cherokee nation of Oklahoma has used that right when they took out Indian blood amount requirement. There is over 554 Federally recognized tribes in America, if just 1 of those tribes was to say...ok we are going to change our "ELIGIBLE FOR ENROLLMENT" so that any American citizen can join....then every American citizen could have their kids governed by that tribe under the ICWA's current status.<br /><br />In the Baby Veronica case, the girl's tan skin does NOT come from native american blood...it comes from her Latino mother. The girl is only 1/265th indian and the rest of her is white and latino yet the Cherokee nation of Oklahoma is trying to say the 264th white and latino blood does not matter.<br /><br />Why is there no amber alert or kidnapping charges etc on this case so far?<br /><br />Anyone else did this and there would be amber alerts everywhere.<br /><br />There is a video on Youtube called "Anonymous ICWA" which is a 1 hr long video that explaines fully why this law needs to be amended and shows what the media is not showing.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-574300303008890516.post-64632422735613573342013-08-15T05:48:16.589-04:002013-08-15T05:48:16.589-04:00Nikki haley should be ashame of her self trying to...Nikki haley should be ashame of her self trying too break up a child from her biological father-I will record all shows and articles of this bullshit and save it so when ( VERONICA)grows up she can see what they put her loving father through,so she'll know he wanted too keep and love her.....<br />Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14146158816993153666noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-574300303008890516.post-91902827621209786222013-08-10T00:14:42.464-04:002013-08-10T00:14:42.464-04:00Hi Trace, I want to take this opportunity to talk ...Hi Trace, I want to take this opportunity to talk about a well-known joke:<br /><br />What is the difference between a female lawyer and a pitbull?<br /><br />Answer: Female lawyers wear lipstick.<br /><br />I am a female lawyer too, and I do sometimes wear lipstick, but I want to talk about Lori Alvino McGill, the ultimate pitbull. If you read her comments, which are all over the place at this point, she fixates on the legal win. There absolutely is no consideration given to the gift of living in a loving family, your biological family, who can provide the most intimate sense of who you are and why you are you. <br /><br />Even if we simply stick to the law, i.e., ICWA, which is a big focus of this case, the US Supreme Court only held that ICWA did not apply to the father as a parent. It was a very narrow ruling. ICWA still applies to the extent that Veronica is a Cherokee citizen, to the extent that the Cherokee tribe can intervene, and to the extent that her Cherokee family members have a stake in wanting to nuture her.<br /><br />I have a lot of problems with the law here, but I'll mention only a couple. First, I am curious how this case came to the attention of the US Supreme Court. I really wonder if Lori and Matt McGill's close ties with Chief Justice Roberts had something to do with it. Next, why did the South Carolina Supreme Court not order a best interest analysis for Veronica? How can you pretend a living, breathing human being has not grown in the past 19 months, has not changed, has not developed a strong bond with her father, her heritage? How can you, the law, not even consider that?!!<br /><br />Lastly, Lori Alvino McGill, there is the law, and there is the nurturing of a human life that cannot adequately be protected by the law, no matter how brilliant an attorney you are. Veronica needs to have the gift of her father who wants to raise her (her mother, your client, obviously doesn't) and the intimacy of growing up with her biological connections. How sad to deprive Veronica of this gift because you and your client, Christy Maldonado, want to punish the father.

This is tradition and called kinship adoption. The Indian Child Welfare Act addresses this. If a parent cannot raise their child, then another family member will adopt the child, or someone in the tribe, or someone in another tribe.<br />It is time that what has been legally enshrined as ICWA is honored, practiced and taken seriously, for a better future for children who deserve better, who need better and who must have connection with their people in order to be fully functioning, fully participating members of their tribe when their time comes. Anything less is racist, destructive and should be unthinkable.<br />Children are only children a short time. Veronica is reported to be strong-willed, even as a little girl. What will she have to say about this in five years or ten years? What will she remember? Will her adoptive parents (like my own) expect her to be grateful and accept and understand how they chose her -- yet in truth they took her away from a father who wanted her. Veronica will learn the truth eventually. It is an ugly truth, cruel in the extreme and one which she will not be able to escape. Experience tells us that it will not end well for the adoptive parents and there will in the end be no winners, only a great deal of loss and trauma.<br />For many adoptive parents, they still do not get it: you do not OWN us, nor will you ever own us, make us your own or become our ‘real’ parents. <br />Speaking with a retired tribal court judge in South Dakota, Lorraine Rousseau handled at least a thousand Indian Child Welfare Act cases. She fought to have tribal children raised by their relatives if parents were unfit or unable. She admitted most states and judges do not fully understand or abide by ICWA - even today. “That is the problem we are facing with Baby Veronica, and the fact that her parents were unmarried when Veronica was born,” she told me. <br />ICWA is a federal law though some news outlets referred to it as “obscure.”<br />Trace A DeMeyerhttp://www.splitfeathers.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-574300303008890516.post-59137162688279870462013-08-06T00:31:16.547-04:002013-08-06T00:31:16.547-04:00I am sick with worry about Veronica - see the link...I am sick with worry about Veronica - see the link below:<br /><br />http://www.postandcourier.com/article/20130805/PC16/130809668/1177/judge-orders-veronica-x2019-s-prompt-transfer-asks-for-prosecutors-x2019-help-after-father-misses-visit<br /><br />I can only imagine the desperation Dusten Brown feels..how can someone want to take another's biological child away from them SO MUCH?!!!

Now we know why this case was taken up by the US Supreme Court in the first place. While Baby Veronica's biological mother is not a direct party to the suit, her lawyer filed a brief as "amici" in support of the prospective adoptive couple. Turns out her lawyer, Lori Alvino McGill, and her husband both have very close ties with Chief Justice Roberts. Now here's the excerpt:<br /><br />"Sources in Washington have pointed out that Alvino McGill's role in Adoptive Couple is more than that of a spokesperson for Christy Maldonado. As it turns out, Chief Justice Roberts and former solicitor general Ted Olson, both of whom sided with the Capobiancos, attended Ms. Alvino McGill's 2006 wedding to Matthew McGill who, coincidentally, was a clerk for John Roberts in the D.C. Circuit Court of Appeals. Therefore, given the cozy nature and small world influence in the Capitol's legal circles, observers say it was no surprise when Adoptive Couple v. Baby Girl was granted petition of certiorari in January.<br /><br />“Dusten Brown never had a chance,” said the source. “His biggest sin was that he got on the wrong side of the billion dollar U.S. adoption industry and he was winning. [The Supreme Court] knew this when they took cert on this case, otherwise, why would they bother with a custody dispute that should have been nipped in the bud four years ago? And the sad part is that he's rehabilitated himself in every way in this case. He's gone to every length to keep his child, he's done everything asked of him. But it is a system that was stacked against him from the beginning. This is Worcester v. Georgia all over again.”<br /><br />After the South Carolina court's ruling finalizing the adoption of his daughter, Dusten Brown made a direct plea to the Capobiancos.<br /><br />“To Matt and Melanie Capobianco I want to say this: Please, for Veronica's sake, just stop. Stop, and ask yourself if you really believe this is best for her.”"<br /><br />Read more at https://indiancountrytodaymedianetwork.com/2013/08/01/gloves-come-civil-rights-suit-filed-adoption-veronica-finalized-150676Jay Iyerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01592280612055255470noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-574300303008890516.post-48760863005096718582013-07-31T15:43:16.976-04:002013-07-31T15:43:16.976-04:00SIGNED AND POSTED TO FACEBOOK.

Sadly, the answer is "no." State laws do not require consent by either parent to be informed. The laws may allow a short period to revoke consent but after that, they allow revocation only for fraud or coercion. <br /><br />This is unlike many others areas of the law where consent--for surgery, marriage, purchase of a vacuum cleaner, use of a name, many others-- must be informed.Jane Edwardshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09715622112694146946noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-574300303008890516.post-47699243160561102512013-07-24T20:02:08.363-04:002013-07-24T20:02:08.363-04:00Shouldn't Brown have had to provide "info...Shouldn't Brown have had to provide "informed consent"? It sounds like he signed a document which the Capobiancos are trying to pass off as "consent" but if he did it thinking the child was with her mother then it obviously wasn't informed consent.

The adoption community is outraged that, for obviously political reasons, the Times has targeted the very private circumstances, motivations, and processes by which the Roberts became parents."[8]<br /><br />The reasons for the adoption happening in the unnamed Latin American country remain unclear, though it was noted that the Irish 1991 Adoption Act only allows adoption of children born in Ireland by people resident in Ireland.[9]Lorraine Duskyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18285341379272250245noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-574300303008890516.post-7454576650180288662013-07-23T11:01:52.509-04:002013-07-23T11:01:52.509-04:00It ain't over 'till it's over.

I am wri...Thanks for this comprehensive, sad post. I am writing as an adoptive parent of a boy who was taken from an abusive family and placed in foster care. I also write as a foster parent who helped reunify a little girl with her mother. These experiences helped shift my vision from an adoptive path focused on securing for myself a long-desired child to one of recognizing the importance, to a child, of an upbringing integrated with biological identity. I feel that adoption should occur only when all avenues for placement within a child’s biological family are exhausted. Much as I adore my son, I felt a profound loss on his behalf when no safe “forever” home was found among members of his first family.<br /><br />I have experienced emotions similar to those I imagine the Capobiancos feel. When my former foster daughter, Nina, was placed with us, her mother was given near impossible odds to overcome her mental health and addiction-related issues. Everybody working on her case felt certain that Nina would end up being adopted by us. Nina came to us as an 8 month old baby who had suffered much neglect. She bonded with me deeply and I grew to love her as my own, long-awaited baby. I convinced myself that only I was capable of giving her a happy, safe, protected life full of love and I worried greatly about her well-being in the care of her mother. I fantasized about running away with her. I was utterly grief-stricken when, at the age of 22 months, she went back to her mother Rayna.<br /><br />Five years have passed since her reunification and, thanks to Rayna allowing us frequent contact with Nina, I see first hand what a gift she has in being raised by her biological family. I realize that self-convincing arguments about providing a better life as Nina’s adoptive mother were born out of my selfish desire to keep her for my very own. I would appeal to the Capobiancos that they might consider whether their passionate devotion to what they are sure serves Veronica’s best interests, living with them, might similarly be motivated by a desperate desire to keep her within their reach. Letting her go is a hard thing to do, but the right thing to do.<br /><br />The Capobiancos have pledged to do everything within their power to maintain contact with both of Veronica’s biological parents: an open adoption all around. They apparently have worked with professionals to come up with a detailed “transition” plan. Had we adopted Nina, we would have done the same. In fact, we transitioned Nina back to her mother in consultation with a child psychologist, to minimize her trauma. The difference between us and the Capobiancos is our view of how the child’s interests are best met: they see their open adoption plan as the best way to surround Veronica by all who love her, while we view that arrangement as a consolation prize at best and a convenient excuse to justify holding on to someone else’s baby. <br /><br />Visiting your roots, your lineage is NOT the same as being raised in it. I see that with Nina, even though had we been raising her as adoptive parents she would have lived very close to her biological family and she could have seen them every day. Dusten Brown has shown that he loves Veronica, can clothe her, feed her, protect her and provide her with her lineage and heritage. There is no bigger prize for Veronica and I had hoped the Capobiancos would see that she deserved this, regardless of courts granting them the legal edge. <br /><br />In the end, saddened as I am, I at least have to acknowledge our incapacity to fully predict the future of these young children. I simply hope that, someday into the future, Nina agrees that what her family and ours together are doing for her is indeed what was in her best interests. I simply hope that, someday into the future, Veronica arrives at that same conclusion in regard to hers.<br />Jay Iyerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01592280612055255470noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-574300303008890516.post-92201263900189523802013-07-20T19:48:47.023-04:002013-07-20T19:48:47.023-04:00There is a group on facebook, "standing our g...There is a group on facebook, "standing our ground for Veronica Brown"...they have links to email legislatures as well as phone numbers.

If it had not been for the ICWA, the Veronica would probably never have left the Copabiancos.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-574300303008890516.post-44919287866554574972013-07-20T05:09:59.325-04:002013-07-20T05:09:59.325-04:00Anon 9:58, I disagree.

They are NOT considering her well-being, her happiness, so they cannot claim to "love" her. They were her pending, uncontested legal guardians for the 1st 4 months of her life. They contested her return to her father for the next 2 years. They have not been her legal guardian for the last 18-19 months. They have had no role in her life for the last 18-19 months except to try to take her away from what is rightfully hers - her family, relatives, her history and her future with her people, her father who will ALWAYS be her father, with whom she shares unique and permanent bonds. <br /><br />The PAP's have NOT behaved lovingly towards this little girl? Sadly, V will come to know this. The courts and the PAP's could have done so much differently to protect her.kymnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-574300303008890516.post-61736774018771377242013-07-19T21:58:56.295-04:002013-07-19T21:58:56.295-04:00I agree with the minority of the SC Supreme court ...I agree with the minority of the SC Supreme court but not Scalia. The ICWA isn't about general parental rights but the ability to override state adoption laws based on a sometimes limited tie to an Indian tribe. More importantly the father surrendered his parental rights and in most states, once surrendered they are not returned without at least a best interests hearing. Saying you didn't understand the surrender documents is standard practice if for parent who later challenge the adoption. <br /><br />The best interests of Veronica should have been considered and I can't see why it wouldn't be in the best interests of the child to stay with the father. That said, I don't think the APs are evil for wanting Veronica back. They clearly love her and being adoptive parents have trained themselves to ignore biology.<br /><br />It's true that they aren't her legal parents until finalization but they were presumably her legal guardians. Finalization would appear to be a formality at this point.
