OriginsUSA, Inc. is organizing a Blogger Blitz for Monday, April 16, 2007, to increase media and public awareness of the coercion used to obtain the surrender and removal of five month old Evelyn Bennett from her seventeen year old mother, Stephanie Bennett, on September 12, 2006, in Canton , Ohio. Traditional media, with the exception of Rick Armon of the Akron Beacon Journal, have largely ignored this story.
As outlined by Mr. Armon in the original story on December 31, 2006, the Bennett case has many unanswered questions. Despite the lack of media coverage, the interest of the online community has not diminished and has been kept alive for months via blog articles, adoption forums and online chats. Kicking off the Blogger Blitz will be a live stream, online, radio interview with Judy Bennett, Stephanie’s mother and grandmother to baby Evelyn. “The Adoption Show,” with Michelle Edmonds, will air on Sunday, April 15, 2007, and will be available online there after at www.theadoptionshow.com . The interview will break the codes of silence and gag orders imposed upon the family, while showing that this story is more tragic than even previously known.A factual time line will be available to bloggers, along with further, as yet unrevealed, details.
Links to this information and a list of participating bloggers will be available on the OriginsUSA website at www.originsusa.org . The online adoption community, other mothers who have been forced to surrender, adult adopted persons, and people who have adopted will have the opportunity to react to the new information. They then can respond as to why this case is important not just to people involved in adoption, but to all who care about truth and justice.It is hoped that attention generated by bloggers will inspire renewed interest from mainstream media and cause widespread support for the Bennett family. To date, the Bennetts remain separated from their daughter and granddaughter and are fighting in court for the return of baby Evelyn. Sandy Young of OriginsUSA, who has been working with the Bennett family said, “Wrongly ignoring cases like the Bennett’s, and the many other stories of forced adoption that still occur in America as accepted adoption practice, allow these abuses to continue. OriginsUSA fights for justice and the preservation of natural families.”If you are interested in being part of the Blogger Blitz or would like more information about how to help the Bennetts, please contact BOD@originsusa.org*****

Hey Gershom....thanks for this post. I have a few questions so I emailed OriginsUSA and will await a response. It is an interesting case to follow. If you would like to know what I emailed them and/or their response, just let me know and I can either send you a copy or put it here.
Hope you are having a great weekend!
Opps...sorry Sarah. I got you mixed up with someone else who posted this. I won't let that happen again. I deserve 30 lashes for that!!!
No I just copy pasted this from a forum because I did not have the time that day to write about baby Evelyn. I had visitors.
Oh but you can confuse me with Gershom any day!!
It is easy to do Sarah since you both have such great personalities and looks to go with it!
Happy Mother's Day to you Sarah!!!
I saw your post somewhere else... interesting... thank you for your work in this area... I will bookmark your page.
I'm an adoptee of the more usual sort, but I have wondered about stories like yours.
Best wishes... and will keep in touch
Sarah, that is a wonderful story. I'm so glad that you got to meet your birth mother. It was very emotional for me just reading your story, because I feel so happy for you. You have a natural right to your biological mother. I'm sure that she also feels deep love for you, since such a natural love would be very difficult to eliminate. However, it sounds like she is still guarding herself, possibly out of fear...and maybe because she is trying to evade the guilt and regret that would come if she admitted she did something wrong by giving you up. But the fact that she met with you shows that she is changing too, and that's great. The fact remains that you are her real, true blue daughter!
