    What becomes a gossip columnist most?

    By Michael Musto

Once upon a time, there was a girl named Jennifer Potter. While she resided with her outwardly happy blond family in Los Angeles County, she lived mostly in her mind. When she grew up, she would remember things that other people said never happened.

She would use different names, depending on who she was talking to. She would give birth to many children from many fathers, and she would adopt other children. And even though she would later give some of those adopted children away, she believed kids were her reason for living. She wanted to create happy families, as she believed hers should have been. She worked hard, built a successful adoption referral business in California in the late '90s and later lost it in bankruptcy in 2000.

So Jennifer Potter went to court and changed her name to Jennalee Ryan (sometimes just "Jenna") in 2000. She moved to San Antonio in 2005 and built what she called the "world's first human embryo bank," which she advertised on a Web site for a company she called The Abraham Center of Life (www.theabrahamcenteroflife.com). She wanted to facilitate the creation and sale of frozen embryos. The story went worldwide. She didn't expect the media backlash. Designer babies, critics railed. Aryan embryos.

The media wanted to know the ethical implications. Reporters corralled professors of bioethics who raised the specters of eugenics and Brave New World. They talked about an explosion of blond-haired, blue-eyed über-infants.

The freak-show aspect was juicy enough that no one bothered to check out who Jennalee Ryan really was; the allegations of violence and financial fraud that followed her from California to Texas; her ties to an adoption agency in Utah, a state whose adoption laws allow out-of-state birth mothers to give up their kids without notifying the father or state adoption authorities.

In the world of adoption "advertising" and facilitation, there are thousands of dollars to be had with each expectant mother. The definitions of adoption advertising and facilitation are vague and confusing enough to allow a smart person to set up shop in the right state and make money off birth moms and adoptive parents throughout Texas and the country, without any license or regulations. Jennifer Potter, a.k.a. Jennalee Ryan, is a smart person.

And, for her baby business, Texas is the right state.

It's March 1996 in Riverside County, about 90 miles southeast of Los Angeles, and Jennifer Potter is talking to a newspaper reporter for a story about interracial marriages. As a white woman married to a black man, she says, she has felt the sting of being other.

"In a mixed relationship, you have to take on the social pressures blacks have always dealt with," she's quoted as saying in the Riverside Press-Enterprise. Potter is described as owning an adoption agency; her husband, Cornelius Braxton, is a model and actor when he's not at nursing school. She tells the reporter that police suspected Braxton in a recent neighborhood robbery, "despite the fact that the couple lives on 3 1/2 acres in a $500,000 home in Temecula."

Potter speaks glowingly of their four-year-old son, who she describes as "a star in preschool." She says her father "disowned" her for her relationship with Braxton, but he "has had a change of heart, and loves visiting his grandson."

A few details don't make it into the story, namely that Jennifer Potter and Cornelius Braxton were never married. (Ryan would later tell the Houston Press it was a common-law marriage, but California does not recognize such a relationship.)

Also left out of the story: In 1993, Potter filed a restraining order against Braxton for domestic violence, according to Riverside County court records. According to the visitation schedule they hammered out, the four-year-old preschool star would be exchanged between Potter and Braxton at an Arco gas station on the first and third weekends of the month. Braxton declined to comment for this story.

It also might have jacked up the newspaper story if Potter gave one of her vivid descriptions of the abuse she suffered at the hands of her father. How, when she lay in her bed at night, she would hear his footfalls down the hall and pray that he didn't stop at her room. According to these stories, Gerald Potter painted blacks and blues with his belt, and little Jennifer was his canvas. There were times when she was so bruised, she couldn't go to school.

And now, the man loved to visit his grandson.

Four months later, same newspaper: Jennifer Potter of Temecula is picketing her branch of Bank of America. Her 19-year-old nanny has apparently stolen her checkbook and withdrawn $9,000 over an eight-month span. Even though the nanny will ultimately plead guilty, the bank will not reimburse Potter's money. Potter, who is now described as having eight kids, is apparently outraged enough to leave her $500,000 home and picket on a regular basis.

"I'm going to do it once a week," she tells the reporter.

Eleven months later, July 1997, same paper: A news brief indicates that a Wildomar woman named Jennifer Potter-Clay is planning a demonstration outside the Riverside County District Attorney's office. She says the DA isn't doing enough to collect child support from deadbeat dads. Potter-Clay has left her phone number, in case anyone wants to support her.

Eighteen days later, same paper: Potter-Clay's protest was called off, but she and others have formed an organization that will somehow "target" the deadbeat dads. Potter-Clay, who has eight children, is described as being "the owner of a successful adoption agency in Lake Elsinore and the producer of inspirational programs for television."

Two years later, August 1999, same paper: Potter-Clay, of Murrieta, "founder and president of the advocacy group Thursday's Child," is interviewed for a story on the county's weak job of enforcing child-support collections.

  1. Thank you so very much for revealing all on this most 'Sybil' like person now known as Jennalee Ryan. The author of this article deserves a great round of applause for excellent journalistic investigative leg-work! My hat is off to you, for exposing this fraud of a woman, who is in the Baby-Selling business.

  2. Excellent research! This woman is crazy, and she's playing with children's lives. Un-adopt? uh-uh. Thank you for exposing this crazy lady.

  3. first of all no one knows this amazing woman, shes been helping save lives and giving women a chance to be happy and have a child of their own, as far as our personell life anyone can dig deep enough and see what they whant to see. as far as her alias' they were all legal names and has never attempted to deceive anyone with regard to her identity. as far as the services she provides i dont think anyone has any complaints, there are several thousand people that have utilized her services and not one of them gave any input with regard to this article, she gives people a chance to have a family and a life of their own. as far as "un-adoption" is concerned the best interests of everychild is taken into consideration. as far as "sandra" is concerned her biological mother placed her for adoption out of shame, after extensive conversations and multiple visits her bio- mother decided her daughter was more important than her pride. as far as "little gay max" it is very cruel to call a child a flamer especially in a widely publisized document. he was placed with an upper class family that had no other children and was more qualified to focus on his specific needs. there is no way to prove someone isnt "crazy" so i will not even dignify that acccusation with a response. as far as the "great journalism" is concerned im sorry for ANYONE who thinks this is a well written article.

    she is an amazing woman and even better mother, i guess no good deed goes unpunished.

  5. Hi, this is the guy who wrote the story. I just wanted to point out that Sean Acero, the gentleman who posted two identical comments, is Jennalee's/Jennifer's son. He is the "Sean" referred to in one section of the story. I just thought this fact needed to be disclosed. Thanks.

  6. Thanks for clearing up that the poster "sean" is really Jennifer/Jennalees son. I was reading it thinking it was her, and laughing at how ridiculous and horrific the whole thing was, but now that i know the comment is by sean i'll take it seriously.

    i mean, c'mon, if i don't, he may chain me to a tree by my neck and beat me.


    I'm an adoption worker and i cannot believe the audacity and insanity of this woman. i was wondering how anyone could have ever approved her to be an adoptive parent, but reading the article i'm fairly certain she must have done it thought her OWN agency. sounds ethical. adoptions do dissolve or disrupt, sad to say, but really i can't fault her for "un-adopting" (as you refer to it) her two children. if only she would "un-adopt" the rest of them they might have a chance to be somewhat normal and well-adjusted.
    thanks for doing a good job of making this extremely complicated story "understandable." well written.

  7. I am a birthmother who placed a child through Jennalee, and I was extremly happy with the services she offered me, who cares what her personal life is, all that matters is that she is offering women like myself the chance to offer our children a better life and home then we can! I have kept in contact with her throughout the years, an she has always had the best interest of the children at heart. She is a wonderful, caring person, and I have never seen anything vendictive out of her. As far as "crazy" I dont understand how you can say she is crazy, she is doing everything she can to help women and thier children, it just sounds like this artical was written by someone who is jelous that they are not doing this, I cant believe how people are so fast to judge others, are you the one we answer to on judgement day? I DIDN'T THINK SO! If I ever needed to place a child for adoption I would go back and use Jennalee and no other agency!! Thank you Jennalee fo your help and your loving support through the years!! Jennalee keep doing what your doing, I truly believe you are an angel sent from god to help protect his children.

  8. Craig Malisow, you had already said that, and I think its a wonderful thing that he defend his mother, he would know best what type of person she is, better then you and I. What type of person are you to say what she is doing is unethical, she is offering homes and families to babies and children whoe birthparents can not give it, there is nothing wrong with that, and her said that all of her names were legal changes, then who cares if she has 5 differnet names, as long as they are all legal, I just feel taht you people have NOTHING better to do then pick apart someone elses life. Dont you understand all of her life experiences are what have made her such a caring and loving person that she is, I really saddens me to see that there are people out there trying to bring someone down who is just helping gods children, As long as I have known Jennalee, she has not done anything wrong, and I am sure if she had the law would have stepped in by now, so your pathetic story on her, will not hurt her in any way shape or form, it is all just basicly hear-say and for those of you who read this and think she is a "horrible person" you should talk to her yourself, and hear what she has to say, and what she does from her own mouth, dont believe everything you read, I dont believe that she would ever hurt a child, physically or emotionaly, and as far "un-adopting" Again she was doing what she felt was best for the children. You need to grow up and see thats all she wants is for children to be loved and cared for, and she is offering a way for that to be done!

  10. I agree with Sean. I've known this woman almost my entire life and to write such a suggestive and flat out rude article is wrong. She does so much to help children in situations that if made public would make her look like a saint. I'm sure if we dug deep into your past it wouldn't look too peachy keen would it? I believe that she is doing a great service to all women who want their child to have a better life and seek adoption. As sean stated I guess no good deed goes unpunished. In the almost seventeen years that I've known Jenna she has treated me with nothing but kindness and has even offered me a place to stay if need be. I cannot even imagine why the author of this article would even believe to know anything about her. I've watched this women work her a** off helping people who truely need her. In my opinion she deserves nothing but the same joy that she puts forth into the world day after day!

  11. Interesting article. That lady sounds mad as a hatter to me. Not surprising her kids would defend her - look how they were raised.

    I'd bet a lot of money that those last three comments came from the same IP address.

    Pathetic.
