Former Adoptive Mother Wanted In Russia

The Russian children’s rights ombudsman says he wants an American woman who sent her young adopted son back to Russia to testify in a Moscow court.
Torry Hansen was living in Shelbyville, Tenn., in April 2010 when she sent her then-7-year-old son on a plane alone back to Moscow with a note that said the boy was violent and she no longer wanted to keep him.
A Tennessee judge ruled last month that Hansen is liable for child support in a lawsuit brought by her former adoption agency.
The boy now lives in a private orphanage that spends the equivalent of about $2,300 a month on his housing and “psychological correction.”
