We are taking a closer look at an adoption agency in Strongsville after It was debarred by the state department. The feds accuse European Adoption Consultants of allegedly soliciting bribes – among other crimes.

 

News 5 spoke with one family who spent tens of thousands on their adoption process and now is stuck with radio silence.

 

It took one trip to Haiti for Katie Bishop and her husband to decide to increase their family by one.

 

“The hunger and poverty that’s there, we can really make a difference in the life of a child," Bishop said.

Margaret Cole, 73, of Strongsville was the longtime owner of European Adoption Consultants, whose business closed when the FBI raided its offices in 2017. She is charged with conspiracy to defraud the United States and making false statements to U.S. and Polish officials.

 

Her attorney, Roger Synenberg, declined to comment because he had not seen the charges.

 

Two others associated with the company, Debra Parris, 68, of Lake Dallas, Texas, and Dorah Mirembe, 41, of Kampala, Uganda, were charged with conspiracy to violate the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act, as well as conspiracy to commit money laundering.

 

In the investigation in Uganda, the indictment said Parris and Mirembe paid bribes to judges and welfare officials to adopt children from 2013 to 2016. Many of the children whose adoptions were procured through bribes and fraud “were not properly determined to be orphans,” the indictment said.
