Lori Carangelo is retired from administrative positions with environmental and job creation projects in Santa Barbara and Palm Desert, California. Lori has authored over 600 published articles and more than 20 unique non-fiction adoption-themed and "true crime" books. Lori and her national volunteer network, Americans For Open Records (AmFOR), enabled thousands of adoptees to connect with their unknown birth families and the stories gleaned enabled her to serve as Data Source to the United Nations Rights of the Child Project. Her "true crime" books explain "WHY" they did it from trial transcripts, and the killers' own words, and also give a voice to the wrongfully convicted.

“The  number of children in foster care right now is the highest it’s ever been. As it encouraged  adoption, ASFA made it easier than ever to take children from their parents  just because those parents are poor.” --Richard Wexler, Exec. Director, National Coalition Child Protection Reform.”
Lori Carangelo, Chosen Children 2016: People as Commodities in America's Failed Multi-Billion Dollar Foster Care, Adoption and Prison Industries

“I learned that a covert CIA operation known as ‘The Finders,’ based in Washington DC, was actively involved in kidnapping and trafficking of children since the early 1960s.  This matter was brought to the attention of the FBI and State Department in 1997.  A report by the Metropolitan Police Department was classified ‘Secret’ in the interest of National Security.  The investigation by the FBI was closed down,  however,  according  to  the U.S. Customs  investigation  report.  ‘The Finders’  became  an internal matter. I  have  given  this  information  to  the  FBI  on  seven  occasions,  and  have  demanded  an investigation for the international kidnapping and trafficking of children.”   Fostered,”
Lori Carangelo, Chosen Children 2016: People as Commodities in America's Failed Multi-Billion Dollar Foster Care, Adoption and Prison Industries

“Los Angeles has more kids in foster care than any other city and it is not unusual to read a news story about a child who was  injured or who needlessly died  in  foster care—after being unjustly  taken from economically disadvantaged parents who are not unfit. ”
Lori Carangelo, Chosen Children 2016: People as Commodities in America's Failed Multi-Billion Dollar Foster Care, Adoption and Prison Industries
