Alleged baby deaths
These alleged baby deaths are happening in the USA and Montreal
An American example, published on the front page of the Arizona Republic on Oct 2, 1992, was the sensational story of a heavily sedated Texas women who gave birth on a Halloween night. She was later told her baby boy was a stillbirth. She was not given a death certificate, but had to take it upon herself to search for it. What she discovered was shocking, her baby boy was actually a baby girl and was adopted out to a Phoenix Arizona couple. The baby was sold by her biological father. The adopted parents had paid a lawyer for the baby in question.
Black market babies are a reality in the USA and Canada, not just something that happens in third world countries.
Montreal Black Market Babies http://home.primus.ca/~pfmtl/BMB/ states the Montreal Gazette reported a black market baby ring in Quebec in the 1940's and 1950's. These were Jewish babies adopted out to Jewish families. It was forbidden for a non Jewish baby to be adopted in that era. What then happened was that non Jewish babies were labelled as Jewish just so they could get adopted by Jewish families.

Not sure that is 100% true. It happens in Third World countries also, but not as expensively as in First World Countries.
I was shocked and angry once when the visitors' visa applications for my children was once declined. On checking, I discovered that since I had not also applied for a visa, it created the suspicion that I might be participating with the black market international baby trade. I therefore had to apply even though I had no intention of accompanying them on their trip to Disney Land.
You may have to go to the university libraries though
