It's definitely a tricky issue because as much as this case needs exposure, there's definitely some people who will use it to demonize gay adoption (or gay marriage/relationships as a whole).
To me this is case isn't an example as to why gay adoption is bad (it isn't), it's an example of how adoption agencies need to be a LOT more thourough with background checks- It sounds like these guys were never charged with anything but the rape accusations should have been though to stop the agency from placing kids with them. I see so many horror stories on here about adopted kids being harmed or killed and it makes me wonder how the 'parents' were even allowed to adopt in the first place. It seems that a lot of them have violent backgrounds or accusations of violence against them but since they were never charged/convicted they're all clear to adopt kids.
