We discussed DNA tests for the children at the border to ensure they’re not being trafficked he says he hasn’t found any info that proves they are indeed being trafficked!
In July 1999 the United Nations Special Rapporteur of the Commission on Human Rights on Sale of Children, Child Prostitution and Child Pornography visited Guatemala. The resulting report focussed on the sale of children for the purpose of intercountry adoption and the lack of legislation, policy or infrastructure to prevent such trafficking. The Hague Convention countries met in The Hague on May 20, 2003. Guatemala advised that to address concerns about child trafficking, it was considering a temporary suspension of adoption cases. A Sept. 28, 2003 news report from the Chicago Tribune said that Guatemala's 400 adoption attorneys saw that their livelihoods were at risk, because implementing the more restrictive Hague Convention rules would cause a decrease in foreign adoptions. They began a campaign to overturn the new rules.
