Society For Adoption Truth

Our mission is to expose the truth about a criminal child supply market involving the commodification and exploitation of children victimized by a legalized child harvesting industry.

Crimes against these children need to stop

Not just abused, not just an accidental death, they are bought and tortured to death. Who thinks this is acceptable?

  • Fayetteville Adoptive Mother CHARGED with Murders of TWO MISSING Children! Avantae Deven - Grizzly True Crime

    NORTH CAROLINA: 63 year old Avantae Deven has been arrested and charged with the murders of missing London Deven (28) and Blake Deven (17) who were last seen years ago! Police found evidence in a burn barrel that both adopted children are deceased. The investigation began with a 911 call in November 2023 when one of Avantae's three other adopted children told police that they had not seen Blake in five years. When Avantae was questioned in January 2024, she claimed that Blake went to a Buddhist retreat. After investigating the home, Fayetteville Police Sgt. Jeff Locklear said: "Avantae Deven is said to have kept them ... in small rooms, in complete darkness at times. They were given little or no food and could earn nourishment by quote 'doing paperwork.' That means they had to write hundreds of paragraphs to apologize for behavior." Authorities believe that Avantae dismembered and burned the remains of the deceased children, even asking for another member of the household to assist her. It is believed that Blake was 10 years old when he died and London died sometime in 2019. Avantae has been charged with first-degree murder, concealment of death and kidnapping in connection with London's death, per police. She has been charged with felony child abuse in connection with Blake's disappearance. She is being held without bond.

  • On January 14, 2021 3-year-old Victoria Rose Smith died at the hands of the adoptive parents that DSS and CPS had placed her and her 2 brothers with in March of 2020.

    As the biological family we were told that these children were being put in a safe, loving and healthy environment, and since Victoria's death we have learned it was anything but that.

    We are seeking a reform of the DSS and CPS system so that no other child must meet the same devastating fate as Victoria. If you have a DSS or CPS story to share with us, please let us know as we can use that to help with the Bill we are working to draft and get passed in our State Capital.

    This page is being managed by the biological family of Victoria. No information will be approved that cannot be verified by officials. We are not here to speculate or subscribe to outlandish theories and false information. We expect everyone to treat each other with respect and blame lies with only those that took her life and the officials that allowed Victoria and her brothers in that home.

    Dear Senator/Rep [Insert Last Name]:

    My name is [Insert Your Name] and I reside in [Insert Your City], South Carolina. I am a concerned citizen writing on behalf of the family of Victoria Rose Smith. On Jan. 14, 2021 3 year old Victoria Smith was physically abused by her foster parents. Unfortunately little Victoria died from injuries sustained during the abuse inflicted on her tiny body.

    I am writing in hopes of gaining your support in the passage of a bill which will call for reform of the current screening process to become not only an adoptive parent but as a foster parent as well. We are asking that there be frequent non-scheduled home visits to the foster and adoptive parents residence even after adoptions are finalized. We also ask that the vetting system is better structured to include full physiological examinations, thorough background checks and consistent training for foster parents, adoptive parents, guardian ad-litems and DSS case workers. There is also an online petition which has over 44,000 signatures in support of this bill as well.

    Petition can be found at attached link

    Thank you for your time and consideration. I look forward to hearing from you soon.

    Respectfully,
