People here in the Valley are working to help the mothers and families caught up in Maricopa County Assessor Paul Petersen’s alleged adoption scandal.
Pastors Barmon Langbata and Greg Pratt along with the Life Church at South Mountain in Phoenix are stepping in to help the victims in this case.
Langbata says the tight-knit church is shocked by the whole situation, surrounding Petersen and the alleged baby-trafficking business.
“Everybody’s very sad as far as Marshallese community right now here in Phoenix. We’re trying to get together and do something for them,” he told 12 News.
Langbata had a chance to speak with the mothers recently and says they’re doing pretty good, considering the circumstances.
