An adoption agency in D.C. is asking a Tennessee court to investigate the adoptive mother who sent her son back to Russia unattended. Specifically, the adoption agency wants to know if the boy was abused.

“The World Association for Children and Parents filed the petition Tuesday in the Circuit Court of Bedford Country saying it was concerned no one was investigating claims the boy had been abandoned last month when he was put on the plane.” (Source: Associated Press)

World Association is the agency that placed the boy with Torry Hansen of Tennessee, who is refusing to talk to police. The agency’s petition was filed against Hansen and her mother – the adopted child’s grandmother.
