I'm the sister of Steve. The male baby in this "Stolen Baby" story. We had a great reunion. He came back to Memphis to visit and I took him and Carole, his wife to Graceland to see Elvis' home. They are big Elvis fans. Turns out his birth dad may have been named Elvis...he was about 25 years older than EP. Our Mom is still living and is 95. She still talks about Steve and our reunion. She wanted him so bad that as nervous and scared as she was, she took it to court. I knew about him since I was 10. There were no baby pics of me and when I complained about it. She handed me this little hardback pic. She said it was me. When I turned it over it said "My precious baby boy." Needless to say, I knew I was a girl so I questioned her and that's when she told me about Steve. She hurt so much over losing Steve but she's been happy ever since. We are one of the few families who had a happy ending.

I've been watching a lot about this criminal - Tann. I was legally adopted at birth but WA state closed records and it took me 30 years of searching to locate birth family through Kinsolving. More connections through 23andme. Shame on the states closing our records. It was too late for my birth parents as they both passed. I've met a few relatives. Facebook helps, but sadly one response, "I don't need another sister" comment hurts.

Are you saying you think the Elvis could have been his father? Elvis did get around but shocking didn't have all kinds of kids... I wonder if more "Elvis" babies went to Georgia Tann without anyone knowing?

This is such a sad story but I’m happy they got reunited. Georgia Tann is the cruelest human to ever live.

The Tennessee Judicial System should be responsible for reuniting these families separated by Georgia Tann.

Make some attempt to reunite them with their families open up the darn records! Georgia was the one to get them sealed so it could not come back on her! The state should help those children who went through this!

She was so beautiful. How sad her son was stolen from her by such an evil woman.

This is shocking.Unbelievable how she found a corrupt judge to back her up.

There were cops and a judge and politicians involved.

That last story was so sad. Could you imagine. She probably walked past her own father a time or two and neither of them even knew it. So sad.

I can’t imagine. I love my kids so much. Bless these people

I just stumbled upon this story. I am shocked at the evil of these two women in Tennessee. These children should sue the state. I had an aunt who dies in the early 90’s. Sometime in the 1960’s, she gave birth to a girl. She gave the baby up for adoption. The family tried to locate the girl after my aunt was diagnosed with cancer. They weren’t able to find her and my aunt died never meeting her daughter. I never knew this story until perhaps 15 years ago. I’ve always wondered where my cousin is, what she looks like. I hope she had a happy childhood. All such a shame.

Do 23andme DNA testing and you may locate your cousin.

professional wrestler Ric Flair, was actually adopted from here. I just find that interesting, he's not entirely sure who his biological parents are or were, rather.

I have read that Christina Crawford,did find her birth parents,but they had passed,but she has cousins.She wrote in her book that her mother did not adopt any kids,she was the one adopted the others were bought.Christina,was from Tennessee, but taken to Navoda,and legalized.the others ,Christopher,had no records,The twins found their,dad in Mississippi.very sad

What is horrible is that it still happens every day because this is what adoption agencies do. Not much has changed since what that monster Tann did except making her crimes legal. Adoption agencies still buy and sell every infant they adopt out plus they have social workers who prey on single moms and break them down until they sign away their babies. If you want to help then please get everyone you know to speak out against this.

The thing is, here in the UK this sort of thing is going on today - only that its being done "legally", that is to say that new borns that are "suspected" of POTENTIALLY being at risk are being removed from the mother and out into the "care" system - and once these children hit the "care" system then they become untraceable - Richie Allen on KZread did a program on this a few days ago

Georgia Tann did this for almost 30 years. She began in 1923.

Any inkling of am idea if this corruption is present in modern day Tennessee via cps? I only ask bc my step children were just took from their grandparents and none of what dss is saying adds up to the grandmothers story or dss story and I can't help but feel like there's something phishy going on in the middle of all of this

My teacher made me watch this

Modern day Jasper county Missouri

Sounds like today’s child services keep the money rolling in

Do the celebrity's children know this?!

Oregon is just as bad and has got worse. I'm not saying all DHS agencies but some of the adoption agencies that work with certain people in DHS, plus the courts. You get the right people in there that get paid to cover up then it's almost impossible to uncover when it's such a child trafficking ring. My mother had to give up me and my four siblings in sort of the same way that happened in TN. I'd say this is a much bigger problem than people realize.

Omg it's 2019 and there is another story about the same thing in a different state with an abortion doctor.

The doctor that delivered baby and told the mother's the baby died but they were selling the baby out the back door. Many people said the baby's were tiny and covered in blood when they picked them up and they were afraid to get help for the baby's because they didn't want to get in trouble because they thought it was a real adoption up until they had this premature baby in their care.

I think I would say "never mind how could you have done that, you are evil and oh boy i will get my revenge on you lady" and rub my hands together excitedly And most likely she will then say "but-sdkfjleifjlsdkjf" and provide some sort of reasoning to her train of thought or at least, the deepest parts of her unhealthy emotional situation

think it still happens today in some form or another????!!!!
