JEFFERSON CITY, Mo. — The Missouri Supreme Court ruled Tuesday that state adoption laws were not followed in terminating the parental rights of a Guatemalan woman caught up in a 2007 immigration raid and allowing her son to be adopted by Americans.
But the decision doesn’t return the 4-year-old child to his birth mother, Encarnacion Bail Romero. The court instead ordered the completion of mandatory reports about Romero, the adoptive parents and the boy, and a new trial regarding parental rights.
