In 1997 it came to light that a corrupt local physician in McCaysville, Georgia had illegal trafficked and sold up to possibly 200 babies to unsuspecting adoptive families, sometimes without the birth parents permission or knowledge. He ran his black market adoption ring out of his practice, The Hicks Community Clinic. The search for the truth in it's full scope is ongoing for these people, many who will never know the circumstances of their births or their past. Join us in the closet this week as we discuss Dr. Hicks, The Hicks Community Clinic, and the Hicks Babies.
