Cherokee girl in U.S. adoption battle transferred to adoptive parents Sep 24th 2013, 02:25 OKLAHOMA CITY | Mon Sep 23, 2013 9:50pm EDT OKLAHOMA CITY (Reuters) - A 4-year-old Cherokee girl known as "Baby Veronica," the child at the heart of a cross-country custody battle, was handed back over to her adoptive non-Indian family on Monday, a Cherokee Nation spokeswoman told Reuters. The Oklahoma Supreme Court earlier on Monday cleared the way for the girl to be transferred from the custody of her biological father in Oklahoma, Dusten Brown, with whom she has lived for nearly two years. Brown gave Veronica to her white adoptive parents, Matt and Melanie Capobianco of South Carolina, at about 7 p.m. Central time Monday evening, said Cherokee Nation spokeswoman Amanda Clinton. No details were available on where the handover took place.
