The mother signed over custody to the Adoption Center of Choice in Orem Utah. Cody was never contacted about the birth or the pending adoption. There has been no adoption as it has been tied up in court while Cody fights to keep his parental rights to his child. Shortly after Cody started his legal battle the mother changed her occupation on myspace to babyseller. That is where the name of the awareness site is derived from.
Background Info: The mother informed him she was pregnant and he did everything he should have. Offered to have her move in with him and pay for medical bills.
A little while later she informed him she had a miscarriage and refused to take his calls. He relocated and tried to move on, still shaken up by his unborn child's "death"
When the mother was 8 months pregnant Cody learned from a mutual friend she was still pregnant and planning on giving the child up for adoption in Montana.
Through phone calls and letters he was successful in stopping the pending adoption through LDS Family Services. After that the mother disappeared and again would not accept his phone calls.
Three weeks after the first failed adoption she was successful in placing the child in Utah through the Adoption Center of Choice because of the strict laws in place regarding unwed fathers.
The agency retains custody and Cody has never even seen a picture of his daughter. Cody has been fighting to keep his daughter in his life since before she was born.
We hope to reunite Cody with his daughter whom he desperately wants and change the laws in Utah so this doesn't happen again.
