"It wasn't until they noticed their then 3-year-old son cringing at the sound of a squeaky bed that the Garcia-Bengocheas suspected something was seriously wrong with the three children they'd adopted from the state's foster care system.

The sound, the boy told his adoptive parents, reminded him of the nightly sexual abuse he and his older brothers suffered at the hands of their former foster father, Hector Rosa.

..... A false light was cast on these boys' background in their behavior and personality by the department,' Block said. "It was a slick marketing job so they can dump these children on the adoptive parents. And that's what they did, they literally dumped these kids."

"....The boys also broke their adoptive mother's jaw, tried to poison her and intentionally injured their older, previously adopted brother, ' Block said."
