I had forgotten about this - Tammi's own words proving that she had wanted to adopt Gabriel.

1st post in that thread:
"I really believed that God wanted us to take that baby," Tammi Smith told McQueary during the call.
She said she felt meeting Elizabeth in the airport was divine intervention. Smith had already alerted friends to the new addition to her family, and without McQueary's knowledge or permission, she prepared for her new child.
"We went and bought a brand new crib. We bought everything. We bought a house full of baby food, formula, diapers, you name it. We went and bought everything, a crib, a new dress, everything for him. And here we are, just, you know, really upset about it," Smith told McQueary.
Ok, so if they were truly going to adopt Rachael Hoover's baby, why wouldn't they have already had the crib?

Look at post #12 that shows the actual Craigslist ads that Tammi placed. She is selling the crib & baby boy clothes due to:
"we had an adoption gone bad".

So, if they bought the crib specifically for Gabriel, and are selling it due to an adoption gone bad, then she is admitting that they planned to adopt Gabriel, but it went bad.
Again, her words (verbal & written) alone will find her guilty....
