wow. This is big news out here, What a POS. He is also an attorney. I hope he loses everything and goes to prison. 9 pregnant women found at his house. He is also being accused of defrauding Medicaid (AHCCCS) for medical care for pregnant women.

He's a despicable human being as are others who are alleged to be a part of this disgusting situation.

Eight of the women were found in a home that Petersen owned but apparently did not occupy himself. Other women were said to have lived in an apartment complex in the east Valley.

And there are stories of as many as 70 women or more who've been brought here for private adoptions that Petersen set up and profited from:

I agree. Total POS. No question too that he used his position as an elected official to earn people’s trust.

So much wrong with this situation.

"The indictment states, "Petersen and Jennet facilitated travel for pregnant women from the Republic of the Marshall Islands to come to Arizona for the purpose of giving a child up for adoption."

Damn.
