Ten Americans arrested on suspicion of child trafficking say their detention is merely a misunderstanding over documentation. The 5 men and 5 women, from an Idaho charity called New Life Children's Refuge, were detained by Haitian police as they tried to take 33 earthquake orphans to a temporary shelter in the Dominican Republic, CNN reports. The children did not have the exit visas necessary to leave the country—planting the Americans squarely in the center of a burgeoning firestorm over child trafficking.

Its sounds like they should have known being in the business of adoption or at least check before leaving the country with them. The misundersatnding sounds like a defense for trial.
