U.S. State Department Behind International Child Abduction Scandal

Saturday, June 14, 2008
By Teri Stoddard

Karl Hindle has been working tirelessly for five years and spent more than four hundred thousand dollars investigating his daughter’s illegal abduction to the U.S. What he has uncovered is deplorable. The paper trail shows the United States government is in the business of illegal baby snatching and harboring criminals.

Emily would not have suffered the loss of her father for the last five years, or the vision in her right eye, if it weren’t for the Violence Against Women Act (VAWA.) And people like Barbara Grieg of the U.S. State Department who see it as an excuse for misandry and a license for lawlessness.

Hindle, a U.K. citizen met and fell in love with American Sheila Fuith while in New York. When she moved to the U.K. in 2001 she hadn’t mentioned the husband and daughters she’d abandoned. Emily was born in the U.K. on March 1, 2002. At 5-months-old Emily was diagnosed with esotropia caused by amblyopia. She needed patching therapy, a patch worn a few hours each day, or she would lose sight in her right eye.

In February 2003 Fuith decided to leave Hindle and return to the U.S. She knew he would object to her taking Emily, so she did what many women in her position have done. She accused him of domestic violence and sexual abuse of children. Thanks to VAWA, she needed only to speak the words.

Fuith was taken in by a battered women’s shelter, and given free legal aid by the U.S. government. With no evidence and no due process, Barbara Grieg authorized the illegal abduction. The U.S. Embassy in London issued a passport for Emily without her father’s signature as required by law. The forged signature was not notarized, and had the wrong date.

After arriving in the U.S. Fuith stopped Emily’s therapy. She then tried to give Emily away in a “baby switch.” She placed Emily with the family of Leslie Merriam, a three time convicted pedophile in Wisconsin. Karl learned of this and contacted local law enforcement.

Fuith needed only to claim Karl was harassing her, and the baby switch wasn’t investigated. A call to Grieg confirmed that Hindle was “dangerous.” Captain Alan Osowski never looked at Fuith’s phone when she told him numbers from “harassing calls from Hindle.” But he wrote he had in his report.

This was just the beginning of Hindle’s harrowing five-year journey to protect his daughter. Fuith has moved Emily dozens of times through several different states. She’s filed over 100 false police reports. And Hindle has received death threats.

Two police investigations in the UK and three in the U.S. cleared Hindle of all allegations. Fuith was found guilty of coaching Emily and making false allegations. Hindle was given court-ordered reunification with Emily.

Hindle said, “Emily met her elder brother (Max) and sister (Elizabeth) for the first time in almost 3  years…as we walked into the resort hotel, Emily asked me ‘Is this my family ?

They enjoyed these visits, evidenced by these photographs, until Fuith made another false allegation and disappeared. Emily was then listed as missing and endangered.

Knowing all of this, Grieg didn’t just harbor Fuith all these years. She interfered whenever Hindle needed a visa to attend custody hearings, arranged his improper arrest, imprisonment and deportation by the immigration department, and tried to set him up to be arrested for violence. She had officers hiding in bushes while her cronies harassed Hindle. And all the while, during her many lawless and reprehensible actions, she allowed Emily to go blind.

Fuith is still enjoying VAWA-funded legal representation. Recently there was a conference call between Fuith, Hindle, their attorneys and the State Department. During the call Fuith recanted every allegation she has made against Hindle. Even hearing this, the State Department refused to budge. The reason? The allegations the mother has made.

Sheila Fuith is clearly guilty, yet has not received any punishment. Karl Hindle is completely innocent, yet has not been able to see Emily or get custody. Now the State Department wants to send him back to London to apply for a new visa.

Hindle said recently, “I’ve been here for 5 weeks, yet Emily and I have not seen each other. The judge will not enforce his orders, and the mother maintains visitation must take place in Panama City, 350 miles away.  Emily and I last saw each other on May 28th, 2006!”  Hindle is now on his way back to the UK without seeing Emily.

    When ever I hear the corporate governments speak of the best interest of children, I, first laugh, then get very angry. They have absolutely no interest in anything except money, power and control. Everytime they make some ” phoney law” like VAWA, and that God awful thing takes away more of the rights of fathers and children, I want to run up the confederate flag and load my guns.
    We must stop these criminal, and yes I did say criminals. What they are doing maybe “legal” but it is not lawful or right. They are destroying the family unit and they need to be put on notice, The family is God’s creation and everytime they wreck it out by supporting rebellion by women, they are sticking their finger in God’s eye and God being a just and merciful will soon have to act. Time is running out, straighten up and stop this “criminal enterprize” or I Almighty God will stop it for you! I have repeatedly warned you to stop and have sent multiple emissaries to give you that warning, yet you have persisted. One last time stop or else!

    The full power of the State in its most illegitimate forms has been brought to bear on a little girl and her father. An ill little girl and an overseas citizen father. Both are immensly vulnerable and easy pickings for rogue departments and rogue ’servants’ of the people.

    And for what? To ‘protect and support’ a vicious woman who cares for no one but her own selfish ends. A ‘Sacred’ woman.

    A Judge takes the public purse and does not even enforce his own Orders. A Police Capt takes the public purse and acts corruptly to ignore evidence. A State Dept power-mad feminazi functionary takes the public purse and distorts the law and conspires to commit domestic violence.

    These people will feel the full fury of my Justice when I am elected.

    It just needs enough of you to …..

    Vote #1 AMFORTAS.

    Time is running out.

    NO ONE ELSE seems interested in cleaning America.

    I am glad to see this man’s story printed here and so many candid details. The actions of these people are abhorrent.

    I can’t beleive the strength the father has shown in trying to be with his child and protect her. What kind of pyscho mom lets her daughter lose the sight in her eye; and shame on the people who have enabled this fiend.

    For those who elected Obama and that idiot Joe Biden…pray you never are put in this position. I can’t wait to get these useless rats out of office! My thoughts & prayers are with you Karl & Emily as well as any father wanting to be with his children. May God bring reason & truth to those in authority over us.

    Congratulations on getting this story out with all the details of what happens to fathers in family courts.
    Good luck to the father in his perseverance.
    Should the mother not be prosecuted for at least wasting police time?
    Disband VAWA.
