“Trail of Deceit” | S2 E3

Tara Lee and her husband Jeremy were in financial ruin. They had lost another home to foreclosure, and Tara’s wages were still being heavily garnished. There was another bankruptcy, the purchase of another, larger home, a new car, and they adopted two babies between 2012 and 2014.
During all of her financial woes, Tara established Always Hope and it appeared to be a successful, legit adoption agency... until a phone call from a woman in late 2018 changed everything.

“Merging Families” | S2 E2
Last week’s episode covered Tara Lee’s extensive history of fraud and the numerous civil judgments that had been levied against her, which dramatically affected her finances for years to come. And by the time 2014 rolled around, there were a few more financial setbacks. Even so, it seemed like Tara made some positive steps toward changing her life: she’d gone to school, gotten a degree, and was trying to take control of her finances by working multiple jobs, one of which was in the legal field. But, like she wrote in her blog in 2017, the Lord had other plans for her. Those plans would absolutely change Tara’s life, and destroy countless others in the process.
