Along the way she became an expert in illicit adoptions, serving as an investigator and telling her story on every major news network.

Synopsis
From the 1940s through the 1960s, young pregnant women entered the front door of a clinic in a small North Georgia town. Sometimes their babies exited out the back, sold to northern couples who were desperate to hold a newborn in their arms. But these weren't adoptions—they were transactions. And one unethical doctor was exploiting other people's tragedies.Jane Blasio was one of those babies. At six, she learned she was adopted.
