Former Kentucky Governor Matt Bevin, known for his advocacy of child welfare, is under scrutiny following a report revealing that one of his adopted sons, now 17, is a ward of the Jamaican state after being placed in an abusive boarding school. The London Times reports that Bevin's son, Noah, was sent to the Atlantis Leadership Academy in Jamaica, which was shut down due to allegations of extreme abuse, including physical beatings and cruel punishments. Noah's parents did not attend a court hearing to retrieve him after the facility was closed, leading to his current status as a ward of the state. Bevin and his estranged wife Glenna adopted four children from Ethiopia, emphasizing a faith-driven desire to help children in need. However, Noah expressed to reporters that he believed he was adopted for 'public image,' raising serious questions about the Bevins' motivations. The case has attracted significant media attention, including from advocates like Paris Hilton, who are concerned about the treatment of children in such facilities.
