But this paragraph from the same article you just linked to says "the children" were adopted on Dec. 17 -- the day you just pointed to on which Moses was adopted. So they all 3 were adopted the same day.
Concerning Mia, yes, I agree she is to blame, too. All the warning flags were waving and she was ignoring them, trying to keep things going with Woody. So if Dylan is right about what happened, then for some period of time, Mia was an enabler.

"Given the status of the father, the home study was waived, and the court presumably knew nothing about Woodys sessions with Dr. Coates. You have a home visit when youre thinking maybe these people cant afford another child. Here there was no issue of morality or finances, Weltz says. Woody had told me that he used to go over to Mias apartment every day and be there when the children woke up. Hed see them every day in the middle of the day. Hed be there when they went to bed. On the surface it seemed that he was more of a father than a lot of natural fathers I represent. Weltz recalls December 17, the day Woody, Mia, and the children accompanied him to the courtroom (where Woody remembered he had once shot a scene) and the judges chambers, as being probably the happiest day Ive ever spent in court.
