There’s also the ‘Two ‘Murican chillren ripped from their mother’s arms!’, conveniently ignoring the fact that they have dual citizenship and, you know, a father. The media’s refusal to tell the whole story is pretty astounding.

Yes.
Thank god I’m not the only one sort of obsessed with this case! One of the more bizarre incidents was when she gave her then 4-year-old son a paper with her phone number, slipped it into his shoe and told him to scream if his dad ever took him to an airport. It’s in the court papers. It’s nuts some of the shit she…
Glad I’m not alone. What in fuck did that mean? And I agree - when a relationship ends and one person has behaved badly and/or continues to behave badly you’re under no obligation to love them or even like them. Quite frankly, stay as far away from them as possible.
Agreed. I do my best to avoid conflict with my conflict-loving ex and to avoid disparaging him to the kids but no, I do not love him or even like him. He’s been too much of an asshole for that to happen.
They’ve also done interviews saying the kids aren’t German citizens, hinted that he’s abusive, that she has complied with all court orders, etc. etc.
Well, let’s see. Man comes in with baseball bat and starts beating the shit out of you. If you’re a responsible gun owner that gun will be unloaded and under lock and key - but I’m sure your attacker will pause for a moment or two while you get the keys, unlock the cabinet or box, load that sucker up and start making…
Lying to the State Department is a crime. And no, not the father, just someone who finds this case fascinating as I’ve lived most of my life overseas and this shit really messes up kids and families. International custody cases are difficult in the best of circumstances - seeing how Rutherford has behaved really…
No visa - no entry. He has to apply for ESTA simply to enter the country and it won’t be approved after the accusations, which she has refused to recant.
Because it’s on the court record that she was sitting right there when her lawyer told Daniel G. ‘I’ve got State on the phone right now. Sign this paper revoking your rights to the kids and I’ll hang up.’ He refused and the next thing you know the visa was revoked.
That is what happened and because neither she or her lawyer (at that time) have recanted those accusations it’s a tricky situation. I love how she keeps switching lawyers - 3 in 3 years - just as she district shops and tries to get rulings on holiday weekends with temp judges. I have watched this mess for a couple of…
Agreed, he hasn’t, but from what I understand it’s a futile effort until she writes the letter she’s been ordered to write to State saying that the accusations put forth by herself and her lawyer were not true.
From everything I’ve read about this case she has, in fact, not written the letter to the State Department, and the reasoning seems to be that it’s because she would essentially be admitting to lying and therefore could be getting herself into a whole heap of trouble with State. If she has written it I’d love to see…
It’s actually EU-based. If you have family members living in the country and who are citizens it’s much easier to get a temporary visa which you will be required to renew at regular intervals - probably every 6 months or so - for the first few years. After that it becomes less often and after a benchmark has been…
Well, he can now as they’re on their way back to Monaco. She fucked up and should probably face jail time for this bullshit stunt. If it were the other way around you can be sure people would be screaming their head’s off. After following this far too closely it’s my opinion that she needs to be evaluated because her…
I read somewhere that she’s also close friends with someone big at one of the morning shows, which is why they let her get on there and boo hoo her sob story without putting any of it into context or stating the actual truth about what happened.
Because her children are there they would likely give her a temporary visa, which she would have to renew regularly, with all the required visits to the police for interviews before they slapped the renewal stamp on her passport. After the required period of time passed she could then apply for permanent residency and…
For whatever reason this case has held some fascination for me and from what I’ve read they have done nothing to move forward with the accusations and it’s now a matter of her writing a letter (as ordered) saying that the accusations she made are untrue. At that point he can apply for a new visa, which could, for any…
He can’t enter the States, which Rutherford and her lawyer are well aware of. In fact, he can’t enter the States due to her actions. Which backfired on her.
