This is the story of the evil lawyer, Dr. Vásquez, from Boyacá, Colombia — a man who used his position within the child welfare system to steal, kidnap, and forcibly take children from their Colombian mothers, trafficking them abroad, including to Sweden, in the late 1970s and early 1980s. His name later appears in Swedish government investigations into international adoption. By 1981, he confessed to facilitating the illegal adoption of hundreds of children, exposing how corruption and weak oversight turned adoption into child trafficking.
