How One Woman Stole 5,000 Babies

How does one woman manage to steal an estimated 5,000 babies from their parents, then sell them to the rich? 
In this episode, Christine goes over the atrocities committed at the Tennessee Children's Home Society, an orphanage ran by a woman named Georgia Tann. 
Tann committed everything from fraud to abuse, and even murder.
Learn how Tann got away with committing these crimes for over 20 years, and discover how adoption law (and adoption in general) was forever changed as a result.

*As a warning, this episode does involve (minor and non-detailed) discussion surrounding child abuse and some mention of child loss*
