I think Jen and Sarah [Hart] should be idolized, said Erica Rosser
Their parenting and their partnership was beautiful, Rosser said. These children came from scary, scary home situations [before the adoption]. Not only neglectful but scary drugs and guns. And to have them turn out this way, everybody whos met those children loved them deeply and its because of Jen and Sarah. Its because of their love. You cant have a happy, smiling, abused child that doesnt get love. Theres absolutely no abuse.

Records show a trail of child abuse concerns going back to 2008, when the family lived in Minnesota.
And yet, Nusheen Bakhtiar says she still cannot believe that the Hart family home was filled with anything but love and laughter.
"We weren't duped that love wasn't fake," she said.
Still, Bakhtiar finds it impossible to think that Jennifer or Sarah abused their children even after learning that Child Protective Services had opened investigations into the family in Minnesota, Oregon, and Washington. Another family friend, Alexandra Argyropoulos, contacted CPS in Oregon in 2013, telling caseworkers there that she believed the children weren't being fed and were being punished inappropriately.
"I want investigators to come out and prove [signs of starvation or abuse] -- they can prove that, right? If a child had years of physical trauma, I want them to come out and say it wasn't true," Bakhtiar said.
As she waits for more information from California investigators, Bakhtiar is struggling to come to terms with the possibility that the crash may have been intentional. Even if that is proven to be the case, she said it doesn't mean the Harts were not great mothers, up to that point.
"They were alone, scared, desperate, in pain. They didn't do it out of malice," Bakhtiar said. "I think they did what they did because there was no other option."
