The adopted son of former Kentucky governor Matt Bevin says he was abandoned in Jamaica after being rescued from a school accused of abusing its students.
During his time in office from 2015 to 2019, the Republican and his wife Glenna often spoke of their four adopted children from Ethiopia and their desire to reform Kentucky's 'broken' adoption and foster care system.
But one of the couple's adopted sons, 17, has now claimed he was abandoned by the Bevins after being rescued from the Atlantis Leadership Academy for troubled teens in Jamaica in February.
The boy, nicknamed Noah for his privacy, was one of eight American boys aged 14 to 18 who were removed from the school after a surprise inspection uncovered horrific abuse, per authorities.
Noah told The Sunday Times last month that while other parents traveled to Jamaica to pick up their children after the school was raided, the Bevins did not show up and he was made ward of the Jamaican state.
When asked why the Bevins adopted him, Noah replied: 'public image.'
The Bevins, who also have five biological children, did not respond to the allegations when contacted by the Kentucky Lantern.
Noah was reportedly sent to another facility in Florida after Bevins lost re-election in 2019.
He was then sent to the Jamaican boarding school last year. His current whereabouts are unknown but he is no longer in Jamaica.
The Bevins are going through a contentious divorce after 27 years of marriage.
The school describes itself as 'the ideal environment for a young man to detach from a chaotic, fast paced, destructive path to a calm, sincere and refreshing new start.'

For show. They aren’t the only ones.
Are there any good guys?
Article:
“contentious divorce after 27 years of marriage”
That is gonna be brutal.
Democrat or Pubbie?
Read the article , he is a Republican.
All the black kids being adopted by ‘whites’ is (imho) nothing but show. The hollywood freaks parade them around like accessories.
And make them trannies.
“ All the black kids being adopted by ‘whites’ is (imho) nothing but show”
Oh come on.
Maybe that happens with some, but brutally nasty to use a blanket statement like that.
My cousin and her husband for one certainly didn’t do it “for show”.
> Are there any good guys? <
Where have you gone, Joe DiMaggio?
Our nation turns its lonely eyes to you.
What’s that you say, Mrs. Robinson?
Joltin’ Joe has left and gone away.
I’m sorry, I just don’t agree with the policy at all. Very rarely do you see blacks adopting whites. Cross racial adoption should be banned. Your cousin may be an exception but adopting blacks is for show. Look how we saved a poor black child.
The Courier-Journal is getting the divorce papers unsealed by the court. They wouldn’t do that if he were a Democrat.
Thanks for your post.
Interesting picture.
Their body language is not good.
“All the black kids being adopted by ‘whites’ is (imho) nothing but show. The hollywood freaks parade them around like accessories.”
I have to agree with you. Notice too they never adopt kids from the hood, it’s always from Africa. Even Oprah built her fameous Girls’ School there.
Madonna adopted (bought really) four kids from Africa. Notice she did not have this kind of problems with them. Notice too her oldest David Banda is now a limp wristed faggot. I’m sure the other three will have issues like that too.
Virtue signaling is a kind of lie
And it’s hard to maintain a lie for very long
“Atlantis Leadership Academy for troubled teens in Jamaica”
I wonder how “troubled” he is; he may have worn out his welcome at “home.”
In politics?
“ Cross racial adoption should be banned. ”
That’s just so wrong
