The Kingpin is a Queen.

Until then, “Maggie the Madame”, remains free on a $20,000 personal signature bond without collateral.

Unless she changes her plea before then to “not guilty”.

Prosecutors have asked for the maximum sentence of:

  • ten years in jail

  • restitution of “unspecified” value

  • maximum fines of $500,000

  • Federal Bureau of Prisons’ jail processing fees of $200

Maggie’s five-day trial was supposed to begin Wednesday.

Instead, she pleaded guilty to fraud and conspiracy on Feb. 3rd, a week before her trial was to begin.

Two of Maggie’s co-workers have also pleaded guilty in the European Adoption Consultants (EAC) criminal case.

They were EAC co-conspirators who were scheduled to testify against Cole Hughes starting Wednesday.

By ratting on their boss, they hope to reduce their sentences scheduled for next month.

  • Hughes’ best friend and family attorney, Roger Synenberg

http://synenberg.com/people/roger-m-synenberg/

The purpose of European Adoption Consultants from day one was to make money for the Robert E. Hughes family.

As payback for helping Bush win Ohio and the Presidency in 1988.

Hughes died in 1991.

The cause of death?

Allegedly it was suicide.

Maggie married Bob’s son, Robert E. Hughes II.

FBI headquarters in Washington, D.C. assigned Margaret’s stepson, Robert E. Hughes III, an FBI agent, to investigate her case.

At the time of his transfer to Cleveland, Hughes was in the FBI’s counterintelligence unit working for:

After working on his mother’s case, the FBI promoted Margaret’s son to run the FBI’s District Office in Milwaukee, Wisconsin.

When Ohio Gov. Mike DeWine was the state’s, Attorney General, he filed a lawsuit to recover adoption fees for those who were cheated out of their money.

The result?

DeWine was unable to find any:

  • claimants

  • children

  • proof of 8000 international adoptions

His office was able to recover $260,000 out of $200 million that defense attorneys said was collected by Marilyn Cole Hughes for international adoptions.

Subpoenas for financial records were issued to two local banks:

  • KeyBank

  • Huntington Bank

However, most of the money was passed through Strongsville Savings Bank, which was bought out by Fifth Third.

Their records were never subpoenaed.

Without claimants, the money went to the General Fund of the State of Ohio.

Margaret Cole Hughes’ business, EAC, paid a penalty of $39,000.

Judge Joan Syenberg was assigned the European Adoption Consultants (EAC) case on June 1st, 2017.

To avoid connecting Ohio Gov. Mike DeWine to EAC, Ohio Attorney General Dave Yost refused to name Margaret Cole Hughes as a named defendant in their restitution lawsuit filed in Cleveland’s Cuyahoga County Common Pleas Court.

https://brassballs.blog/home/oh-gov-dewine-part-of-international-child-trafficking-ring-in-haiti-two?rq=dewine

The omission shielded Margaret from losing her personal assets as part of the case settlement.

A different judge was assigned the case on Sept. 7th, 2017.

The court record was imaged today:

Police record search of Strongsville City Police, Ohio about European Adoption Consultants (EAC) turned up nothing.

No one from EAC was ever arrested by Strongsville Police.

Thomas Perciak is Mayor of Strongsville.

Before that, he was President of Strongsville Savings Bank.

Who hires the Chief of Police in Strongsville?

The Mayor.

She ran a global cabal in 18 countries, selling kids and drugs, from her businesses headquartered in the Cleveland suburb of Strongsville, Ohio.

Defense attorneys and the Ohio Attorney General’s office admitted that Margaret Cole Hughes’ criminal conspiracy:

  • processed up to 8000 fraudulent international adoptions

  • rinsed $200 million through five companies over 40 years

  • had paid protection from the FBI, Justice Department, and local police

They are:

  • European Adoption Consultants (EAC)

According to the:

  • State Department

  • CNN

  • sealed testimony in over two million documents amassed by the Justice Department

  • sealed testimony from co-workers who have pleaded guilty in and will be sentenced next month

Kids were sold at Halloween parties from her offices in Strongsville.

The purchases were financed by the federal government.

No one from the media is covering these hearings.

They are paid to rewrite the Justice Department’s press releases.

And make it look like they were at the courthouse.

The stories are written without ever reading the court file.

One local television station assigned a person whose previous job was at Taco Bell to rewrite the prosecution’s last press release.

In exchange, Camryn Justice gets to cover the Cleveland Cavaliers, a professional basketball team.

In Cleveland, the theft of 90 dirt bikes since January last year is more important than prosecuting people for murder and selling:

  • children

  • illegal weapons

  • illegal drugs

According to Cuyahoga County Prosecutor, Michael O’Malley.

His office is in Cleveland, Ohio.

According to defense attorneys, there are over two million documents and 41 discs and thumb drives.

It also includes over 200,000 emails between Margaret’s companies and attorneys throughout the world.

Defense attorneys lost an appeal to have them thrown out.

On Nov. 12th, Judge Gwin rules the emails were evidence and admissible.

His ruling was sustained by the Sixth Circuit Federal Court of Appeals in Cincinnati on Jan. 26th.
