PA’s Lax Judicial Oversight in the Masha Allen Case

During the past four years numerous questions have been raised about how and why then-Allegheny County Judge Cheryl Lynn Allen was allowed to preside over the adoption of Masha Allen by her namesake and former roommate Faith Allen. For a long time I wondered the same thing. Almost three years ago, I filed this complaint with the Pennsylvania Judicial Conduct Board. After supplying additional information at the request of JCB's chief counsel, Joseph A. Massa Jr., the JCB presumably spent a year investigating my allegations. Right after Judge Allen won her hotly contested election to the Pennsylvania court of appeals in late 2007 (she recently ran for ...

Masha Allen Update: “Irreconcilable Differences” Delay Justice

Last fall we published a definitive statement on Masha Allen's pending wrongful adoption litigation, publicly expressing a long-held concern that "a traumatized, abused and exploited child like Masha needs a competent and independent decision maker to protect her legal rights and guard her pecuniary well being." Now Masha's third attorney in three years, high-powered litigator Robert N. Hunn, is withdrawing from representing her citing "Irreconcilable differences" with Masha's mother Faith Allen. According to Hunn, "the irreconcilable differences have made it impossible for [my firm] to continue as counsel for the plaintiff. . . . The differences ...

Statement Regarding Masha Allen Litigation

Last week we inadvertently discovered that a Philadelphia law firm recently filed this lawsuit on behalf of Masha Allen. We hope that Masha may now finally begin the process of obtaining some measure of civil justice from the individuals and entities which were complicit in her ongoing sexual abuse and exploitation. We are, however, deeply disturbed that Masha still does not have the independent guardian she so desperately needs. Two years ago today we learned that Masha was being abused and neglected by her current caretaker. She eventually became involved with the child welfare and public health systems in both Georgia and Pennsylvania. After ...

FTIA-ROTIA-AAA and the Axis of Evil

On September 27, 2006, Families Thru International Adoption potentate Keith Wallace repeatedly testified, under oath, before the United States Congress that he "didn't have much information" about Masha Allen's adoption even though he had been "invited here today to provide the committee with all the information I have about the adoption of Mr. Mancuso." A close comparison of Wallace's spoken and written testimony, however, reveals that he left out a lot of unqualified praise for Jeannene Smith. Here's what Wallace says in his written testimony: FTIA's working relationship with Ms. Smith was interesting, to say the least. Ms. Smith is very indust...

Focus on Adoption – a Rogues Gallery

Let me keep it as simple as possible. Since as early as December 5, 2004, the "intercountry adoption advocacy organization" Focus on Adoption has been a virtual rogues gallery of the leading unethical playas in international adoption. On December 5, 2004, the FOA website listed Jeannene Smith as the organization's treasurer. Smith's name, along with Keith Wallace of Families thru International Adoption, appeared prominently in Masha Allen's October 7, 2003 Child Profile Study Report. Clearly Smith, along with Wallace, knew exactly what had become of "child porn star" Masha when Smith was promoted to an FOA officer. This from the FOA website: J...
