Army Dad Reunites With Baby Put Up For Adoption Without His Consent (Video)

U.S. Army Sgt. Terry Achane has regained custody of his 22-month-old daughter Teleah, after a lengthy court battle. Achane's estranged wife put the child up for adoption shortly after Teleah's birth, without Achane's knowledge or consent.

Utah couple Jared and Kristi Frei adopted the baby. They've raised her for the past two years. But the Utah Supreme Court ruled they must return the toddler to Achane, according to UPI.

For more on the story, I've posted a video feature by ABC News.
