Mr. Garcetti and His Instant Family?

John Q. WalshOP-ED

[img]1862|left|||no_popup[/img]Thank you, Dakota Smith of the Daily News, for excavating important details concerning the adopted daughter of Los Angeles mayoral candidate Eric Garcetti and his wife Amy that I have been trying to dig out for many months!

The Los Angeles Times has bowed to Eric's request and never even mentioned the existence of his 16 month-old adopted daughter, Maya.

How odd.

What are the Garcettis nervous about?

Wendy Greuel and her husband don't appear to be paranoid about their kid?

Why the secrecy?

Is the adoption final?

Or have irregularities in the Garcettis’ track record with their past seven Dept. of Family and Children Services foster children caused difficulty in what should have been a smooth adoption process?

See jwalshconfidential.wordpress.com blog entry for more revealing details on Eric and Amy's unlikely family tree.

Did the aunt of two of Eric's foster children make a complaint to Dept. of Children and Family Services awhile back that resulted in Eric returning those children to DCFS?

Eric and Amy, please tell a concerned city of the current whereabouts of your seven former foster children. Or have you cut off all ties with them?

The two Hispanic boys Eric routinely introduced to the press a couple of years ago as “my sons” have inexplicably disappeared from the Garcetti family portrait…without a trace.

How come?

The mainstream media doesn't seem to be curious in the slightest about the whereabouts of these former Garcetti family members.

Why not?

Did the Garcettis, in consultation with Grandpa Gil, cold-bloodedly acquire a child for the happy couple's stay in office as L.A. Mayor and Spouse, accompanied by tabbed offspring?

Were Eric and Amy allowed to “audition” Maya and other prospective babies to play this unique role as drafted daughter and  specially- selected member of the First Family of the City of Los Angeles before a lucky baby was ultimately picked by Eric and his dad Gil?

Where did they adopt her?

From what agency?

Did the Garcettis pay a bonus fee to the adoption agency for special would-be parental treatment?

Is something terribly wrong here?
