Morgan Must be the FARC's New Hostage

Despite my attorney’s efforts, the ex has still not cashed either of my checks, and so, I assume, has made no effort whatsoever to get Morgan’s passport. There is no need to tell you that it is now July 8, 2008, and, if a passport takes up to a month, it will almost be time for Morgan to start high school, airfares will be in the thousands of dollars, and I will again be denied a visit with my child just like last Christmas.

The ex has never bothered to answer me when I have repeatedly asked him if he still has the form I had notarized by the US Embassy in Paris, giving my authorization to the issuance of her passport.

Last year, he, or rather, his wife, claimed that the delay was because my checks were French. After weeks of “trying,” his bank in Wausau couldn’t cash them, despite the fact that every single other French check I have ever sent to an American was cashed without any problem whatsoever.

This year, I sent US checks, in dollars, drawn on my US bank account. The ex simply does not want to allow me my legal right to spend time with my daughter.

I don’t know what he has officially said in this regard, but no matter what was said, in this case, his actions are speaking so loudly, that we cannot possibly hear his words.

And his actions have seriously damaged my relationship with my daughter, who barely speaks to me, when I can find her, says virtually nothing when she does, and claims she does not want to see me. She also claims that the ex and his family have not influenced her. But she is only 14. She never behaved like this before, and I am the victim of the ex’ hostility, venom, and belief that they are simply better than everyone else alive. I am sorry to say, but all of this makes it difficult to even get hopeful at the thought of seeing her. I know in my heart of hearts that the ex is going to prevent this and any other visit that he is not able to dictate, to the letter, the conditions of. This simply is not right.

As far as I know, I still have physical custody, even though I have tentatively agreed to allow him to have it.

He is preventing me from calling Morgan on the phone. He is preventing her from receiving my letters and emails. I don’t even know where she is, and he will not provide me with a telephone number so that I can contact her. Adventure Camp is over, so I know that is not where she is. However, she is not in Wausau, neither at his house nor at his parents, and I have absolutely no way of contacting my daughter.

Perhaps he has sent her to replace Ingrid Bettancourt as a FARC hostage, since they seem to have a pretty good way of keeping people hidden from their loved ones.

I don’t know.

However, at this time, and given his past behaviors, I would like to press charges against him for custodial interference, refusing to allow me parenting time with my daughter, downright nastiness, ugliness, and any other crime or misdemeanor that you can think of. Could someone please tell me what I need to do to go about this? Please. Thank you.
