An Arizona official faces charges in two states for his alleged role in an international adoption fraud scheme that involved smuggling pregnant women into the U.S. from the Marshall Islands and then paying them to give up their babies, according to court documents.
Maricopa County Assessor Paul Petersen was charged Tuesday night with 11 felony offenses, including human smuggling, the sale of a child, and communications fraud, the Utah Attorney Generals Office said during a Wednesday press conference.
The commercialization of children is illegal and the commoditization of children is simply evil, AG Sean D. Reyes said, adding that authorities have no interest in interfering with adoptions that have already taken place.
According to his website, the father of four has been working with adoptive parents for almost 15 years and is also an active member of the Maricopa County Republican Party and the Arizona Republican Party.
