Do you think the 10 American volunteers arrested were trying to drug traffic the Haiti kids?
Guilty or innocent?


They found adoptive parents in Dominica.

The charges are sadistic.

How can you fault anyone for trying to find homes for starving children caught in gang-ridden collapsed cities?

All the evidence so far points towards a knee jerk reaction by religious fanatics, more interested in the future s of the children than the law or themselves, I find it difficult to disagree with them.

Guilty, if anything of sheer stupidity.

They may have had the parents permission and good intentions but they did not consider Haitian law about leaving the country with minor Haitian citizens. I am not 100% on the good intentions part because some adoptive people seem to be so very desperate.

Innocent of what YOU are insinuating.

I beleive they were honestly trying to do what was best.
The question is what exactly were they doing.
- Did they take these children who were either orphaned or who the parents gave up so they could give them a better life?
- Or were they thinking the kids would grow up with the evils of voodoo and therefore thought taking them, even without parental consent, would be the best thing for the child?

If it is the 1st, they are completely innocent. If the 2nd, although they might have had the best of intentions in their hearts, would still be kidnapping.

But they were Baptists. I am in Texas and I know Baptists. Although hyper-conservative, they aren’t typically the "holy-roller" types. So I think it is likely that they had consent from the surviving parents. Maybe they would still be guilty of some crime, but not kidnapping, which is what they are charged with.

I don’t know what it means to drug traffic someone. I have a degree in criminal justice, but I have never before seen ‘drug traffic’ used as a verb.

Anyway, they’re clearly guilty. They’re guilty because they took children without any lawful authority to do so. That’s kidnapping, and they don’t seem to deny having done that. I can’t see any real basis upon which you could argue that they’re innocent.
Also, they weren’t taking orphans. They were taking children, with virtually no consideration as to whether they had families. They even lied to children, telling them their parents had died when they hadn’t, so that the kids would go with them. What they were doing was disgusting, those kids have been through too much already.
