A Bitter After Taste For Capobiancos

People thumping their chests proclaiming Veronica is happy, when Matt has to tell this child every day that she is "his" and when she asks to "go home" he tries to convince her she "is home" but she knows that he is not her daddy, Melanie is not her mommy, and she knows she is not at "home".

When Veronica was taken, a cousin of Melanie's had a teenage daughter about to give birth to a girl, to try to prove to everyone Veronica was "happy" this photo appeared online of Veronica holding this newborn. Though the Capobianco's wanted people to believe Veronica was happy, you can see the sadness in her eyes, the dark circles around her eyes from lack of sleep, and her eyes are a little puffy from all the tears she has been crying. The truth of the situation is seen in the picture.

This picture was posted on Facebook within two weeks of Veronica's forced removal from her loving father.  She just turned four years old, and what four year old girl is not taken with a newborn baby, specially a baby girl.

Now, Miss Veronica is five years old, she has spent a year in captivity. She is a indentured slave being held by her captors, the Capobiancos.

Interesting adoption article online, a adopted woman discovered the truth of her adoption. She discovered that her mother did not want to put her up for adoption, but the woman who adopted her used unethical tactics, was misleading and deceitful in forcing a unethical adoption. The biological mother fought to have her child, but did not have the money to fight the rich, and well connected  couple who demanded her child, and so the court founded that the couple would be "better suited parents because of their wealth, and ability to provide the child with everything she wanted and a good education". Wow, sounds like what the supporters of the Capobianco's were yelling! The single mother had another child, and was threatened to lose that child as well. That adopted girl grew up into a woman, who has learned the truth of her adoption when she got a copy of her adoption record, was she over joyed that she was adopted from a mother who was impoverish? No, she was not thankful for being "saved" in fact, she is quite angry. How dare her adoptive mother and father battle HER family! How dare they take her away from people who LOVED her! How DARE they take her away from her sibling! She considers her captors as selfish, cruel, unloving and hateful people, she has walked out of their lives and wants nothing to do with them.

Oh get ready Matt and Melanie Duncan Capobianco! The clock is ticking! Your time is coming!!

Let it be known to the public, Dusten and Robin will welcome baby girl Isabelle May 2015! It is happy news, and yet it is bitter sweet, because Veronica will not be there to help welcome HER SISTER into the world! Her REAL BABY SISTER!

Isabelle is much loved, much wanted, and she is not replacing Veronica. She will know her sister's story of how she was stolen, not once, but twice. Sold into slavery to make a childless couple happy, a birth mother getting a new vehicle and roof in trade for a child, a child taken from a dad, step mom, grandma and grandpa who loved her and wanted her, stolen from the life of a older sister who misses her, and now a younger sister who will be forced to grow up without the guidance and love that only true sisters can share...

What shall the future bring Veronica? She will return home, she will be welcomed with open, loving arms to a larger family than which she was taken from.

Capobianco's will be left behind, bitter and Veronica will not want any contact with them, for she will know what they did to her, her daddy, her mommy, older sister and younger sister. Yes, life will truly suck for Matt, since he currently is demanding that these things will "never happen" that he has some kind of "power" to control Veronica's emotions, who she loves, where she wants to be. He really thinks a piece of paper will convince Veronica that they were "right" for what they have done to her... but her heart won't lie to her. It is not lying to her now, and it will not lie to her in the future, she knows where she belongs.

Fetal Alcohol Syndrome with Stereotyping

There are many people who believe that when a child is born with Fetal Alcohol Syndrome that the mother must be a alcoholic, and in general, most people believe that a infant born with FAS is born to a Native mother.

We need to stop putting race with the fact that some women drink alcohol while pregnant, and not all of them are alcoholics.

I go back to a time in my young adult days, I went to a bar with some friends. A female was there, obviously very pregnant, bragging how she was in labor, and told her friend "Fill up my glass! It is going to be a long night for me and I need all the help I can get!" the gals at the table laughed while one of them poured her a full glass of beer from the pitcher on the table. I had to say something, so I went up to the pregnant female and stated "I don't think your unborn child needs all that alcohol" I was told to mind my own business, but I couldn't. I promptly replied "This is my business, I know you have four children at home, I know you are a single mother living on welfare, I know my tax dollars are paying for you, your children, and will pay for the birth and the difficulties your unborn baby will have once it is born, the only thing my tax dollars will not be responsible for is if your baby dies from this alcohol you are drinking, you will be responsible for the funeral costs, if you are in labor will have a significant effect on the baby!" I wish I could say she put the glass down, but she didn't.

I knew who this female was because I have seen her all over town, and the guys said she was a "door knob" meaning "everyone gets a turn" so she had a reputation, and watching her actions for several years let me know that there was truth to the rumors.

The pregnant woman did indeed give birth the next day, the infant did indeed have problems, but was never put into the child protection services system. Today, that child is a adult, who has problems, and is in trouble with the law. It is a sad situation, one I know could have been prevented, but the one thing about this situation I feel is very important, is this woman is not Native, she is a white woman who had no dignity for herself nor care for her children.

I do not drink, but I also try not to be judgmental about it. I have never been a alcoholic, not that I did not try alcohol, I just do not like the taste of it.

With the help of friends, they alert me to things happening on Facebook, and such is this posting is from one of the people who post things.

I introduce you to a woman named Sarah J. Powell from Mauston, Wisconsin who posted between the hours of 1:00 a.m. and 2:00 a.m. on a Indian Child Welfare page:

Sarah J Powell Do you even know what the Indian child welfare act is

 

Sarah J Powell Today you may want to look at what it is again..it was designed to keep children safe from resists maybe but it also prevents any other nationality from having anything to do with their brothers, sisters, neices, nephews and so in.....it is rasist it self...period

 

Sarah J Powell But the Tribe will sit by and let government courts do whatever, they will sit by and let abuse and neglect happen before they step in and use Indian monies to "protect their own"

 

Sarah J Powell Alot of abuse and neglect happens within TRIBES and they won't do a thing unless, God for bid a white family or any other for the matter steps in...what happens when the child is mixed race???? Indian child welfare act has control. ..yep....

 

Sarah J Powell I know first hand lady!!! Maybe you need to educate yourself

 

Sarah J Powell Blinde?? Really?? How is stereotyping now...racist much??

 

Sarah J Powell Oh I think I do...ever look at statistics of children born with fetal alcohol syndrome?

 

Sarah J Powell Just going on my own experience of course. ..I'm sure there are alot out there that really do give a shit bit the ones that don't give the majority a bad name...likes whites or blacks too

 

Sarah J Powell But I am a auntie that saves her niece at a very young age and because I could not prove Indian in my background was not suitable

 

Sarah J Powell Yet family who never even knew she existed who lived in a trailer by that was condemned shortly after they got her was suitable

 

Sarah J Powell And now they don't let any of the family have a part in her life. It hurts...but it is killing my mom...and there isn't a thing we can do...because she is hochunck. ...and sorry...but that's fucked up...plain and simple

No doubt I left out the person she was trying to involve in a debate, because as I understand, less than half way through the debate, Sarah J. Powell blocked the person and continued the rant, so I have decided to take this and answer what she is obviously confused about.

First she claims that the law was to keep children away from "rasists" then goes on to say the law is "rasist" ohhh I get it, she means RACIST!

No Sarah J. Powell, the law is not racist, in fact, the law was designed to stop the forced removal of Native children and put into homes of white people in a attempt to "kill the Indian save the child" theory. It was believed that if a child was not raised in their culture, then they would cease to be Indian people, and that itself is racist because the only reason children were removed is because they were and are Native children.

Of course a tribe is going to "protect their own" because as a tribe, we are a family, as a family we will deal with the issues.

Abuse and neglect of children happens in all races, all cultures, it happens in every country on earth, but you believe it only happens in Native communities? Seriously, who needs the education on the subject of why there is Child Protection Services in every state, every town in the USA?

What happens when a child is of mixed race? The Indian Child Welfare Act is for children who parent(s) are enrolled in a federally recognized tribe, and the child must be enrolled or eligible for enrollment. In cases of mixed race, a non tribe member is included in the proceedings as if they are a tribe member. In fact, if a non Native parent does not wish for the case to be heard in tribal court, they only have to object.

Sarah J. Powell claims the person she is debating is racist, yet goes on to use "fetal alcohol syndrome". Again, this is a issue that crosses all color, culture and financial lines:

CDC Data

Sarah J. Powell claims that she is a "auntie" who "saved" her "niece" at a "very young age" because she could not prove Indian in her background.  The truth is, her being a aunt gives her no legal standing in any case involving a minor child when a legal parent has not had their parental rights taken away. It does not matter what court, or what color the child is, Sarah J. Powell has no legal standing. How ironic Sarah J. Powell decides to claim to be Native in a attempt to manipulate the law, but she made a false claim, she does not understand the requirements in being a enrolled member of a federally recognized tribe.

Sarah is upset that the family, by her claims, lives in a trailer, and that it was condemned shortly after the family got this child.. Really? I guess she does not know home studies are done. But perhaps, if she were truly concerned, she would be contacting her law makers and asking them why the federal treaties are being broken and Indians are forced to live in what she feels is unsuitable housing.

Sarah J. Powell's last entry is quite telling, once you put this all together, the mother of this child is her relation, per Sarah's information that they family did "not know the child existed" the family would be that of the father, but then someone in the family had to know, because they went to court for custody of this child, perhaps the mother was neglecting and abusing this child and the state stepped in, and the state awarded the child to the father and his family because the child's mothers family is not stable. Sarah, it appears, is on a late night rant, with too much to drink herself, wanting to put the blame on a law that in reality, helped to protect a Native child. I am sure if the Ho Chunk Nation were to be contacted their story would be quite different than that of Ms. Powell.

 I am sure Sarah J. Powell's family is upset over the loss of contact, that too is telling, it tells me that there is conflict between these two families. Something has happened and contact was cut off between them and this innocent child. Perhaps it is the allegations that the child is neglected and abused by them? Perhaps it is a obvious racist attitude by Sarah J, Powell, but I am sure it is something very serious that happened. ICWA does not, I repeat, DOES NOT get involved in custody cases where one parent wants custody, they get involved with the state has stepped in and removed a child for the welfare of that child. This child was removed from Powell. With a late night drunk rant, it seems it was the best action taken,

Sarah, you can complain about the blog, you can complain about the use of the photos, but all you have written, and your photos were in a public domain on the internet, therefore you have no copyright to them.

Life Lessons

There are many things in life that teach us lessons. I was deeply moved by a women who was 93.


The woman, out of respect for her, and she recently passed away, I will not reveal her name right now. She would be the first to tell you she had a wonderful life. She grew, married, had children, grandchildren and great grandchildren. Her life was rich with love, and she had her fair share of heart breaks and hardships that we all experience.


She is mourned by her family, and those who knew her.


Her obituary was not like most, because she wrote it, she wrote knowing one day it would be a very short story of her life.... she was adopted. Back in time, when she was born to a unmarried mother and father, it was shame that a family gave for a baby born out of wedlock. Her mother had no choice but to give her infant up for adoption. The laws then were court sealed papers, generally biological parents were erased out of the child's life, as if they never existed.


I cannot tell you of the woman's family who adopted her, she really did not speak of them, but when she learned she was adopted, she was treated like she was to be shamed. Like other adoptee's, she had a deep desire to learn of her biological family.


She was raised in a German culture, her genetics were not of the German descent, and she never felt that she fit into this culture.


When she became a adult, she searched for who she was, without the aid of computers, or the internet, she went to the city of her birth, and she dug for any information she could get. It took her years, and finally, with all the odds stacked against her, she was able to find her biological family. It was only then, when she met her mother, her father, that she fit in. It brought peace to her heart.


Her obituary was simple, but it spoke of truth, it begins when she was born, where she was born, who she was born to, and it listed her birth parents name, then it stated she was adopted by, Mr. and Mrs. and that she was raised five hundred miles from her place of birth.


Those who proceeded her in death were her parents, her adoptive parents and her husband. On her survivors is listed her children, grandchildren, great grandchildren and a half brother. A BROTHER! Her biological father later married and had a son! She was so joyous to find him, and get to know him before she passed away.


Through her, we learn, that when taken from your real family, and forced to live a lie, never stops knowing when you do not belong, genetics go way deep into the soul. Inside, you know, you know you don't belong. There is a desire deep inside that wants to connect to your place where you should have been in life.


Perhaps the greatest thing I learned from her is that she detested the German foods she was forced to eat, she much preferred Italian foods, she knew that when she grew up, sausage and kraut would not be a staple in her house, and as it turns out, her mother who carried her for nine months, was Italian, and thus, those foods were imprinted on her biologically.


I am not against adoption, but adopters need to look to the history of a family and see if this child will be happy with their life style, because no matter how much money they have, you cannot change the genetics of a child. You cannot force a child to like foods, sports or hobbies if that is not part of a child's genetic makeup.


I am touched that someone who graced my life was able to teach me so much, not just in life, but in her death.


I wonder what Veronica Brown Capobianco will chose for her obituary? What will she have to say about her life? Being forced away from a family who loved her, and wanted her. Taken by a selfish childless couple in their desire to obtain this child. Will she even mention the Capobianco's?


Veronica's life story is being written as she grows, it is up to the Capobianco's to watch themselves in their behavior as to how she will write about them...

Aboriginals adopted into white families want formal apology

Pay close attention to this article, these cases are in Canada, but the US is right there next in line... later, will it become the Irish children who were taken out of Ireland? Scotland? Korea? Children are taken ever day, and they grow up, they learn the truth of where they are from, and they were removed from their family and their culture.


The Capobianco's need to be very concerned, of course they still have that lawsuit against Veronica, but in the future, it will not prevent her from taking action against them. Due to all the media they have stirred, Veronica will no doubt learn the truth of the stealing from her daddy, family, and culture.

WINNIPEG — The Globe and Mail

Last updated Monday, Mar. 24 2014, 11:32 PM EDT

Some aboriginal people who were adopted into white families during the so-called Sixties Scoop say it’s their turn for reconciliation and are calling for a formal apology from the federal government.


Dozens of adoptees gathered in Winnipeg on Monday to tell their stories – many for the first time – and figure out how to get justice. Coleen Rajotte was taken from her Cree community in Saskatchewan when she was three months old and raised by a Manitoba family. Adoptees were robbed of their real families and feel someone has to be held accountable, she said.


“If someone came into your home today, took your children and shipped them to the United States and around the world, we would want answers,” she said. “That’s what we as adoptees are asking for. Someone has to take responsibility for this.”


From the 1960s to the 1980s, thousands of aboriginal children were taken from their homes by child welfare services and placed with non-aboriginal families. Many consider the adoptions as an extension of the residential school system, which aimed to “take the Indian out of the child.”


Ms. Rajotte said she was lucky enough to be placed into a loving home, but she lost her language, her culture and her connection to her ancestral home. When she recently went to the home she would have grown up in had she not been adopted, Ms. Rajotte said it was overwhelming.


“I was physically ill for days just trying to process all of that,” she said.

But while residential school survivors have had a formal apology and are the subjects of the Truth and Reconciliation Commission, adoptees haven’t been formally recognized.


“Personally, I would like to see some kind of formal apology to all adoptees that were taken from their homes,” Ms. Rajotte said. “That’s a lot of children – 20,000 children across Canada.”


A spokeswoman for federal Aboriginal Affairs Minister Bernard Valcourt said there would be no comment. “As this case is currently before the courts it would be inappropriate to comment further,” she said in an e-mail.
A class-action lawsuit launched by some survivors in Ontario in 2009 is slowly making its way through the courts. The lawsuit was certified, but Canada recently won leave to appeal that decision.


Manitoba Aboriginal Affairs Minister Eric Robinson said it’s time adoptees were given the same opportunity for reconciliation as residential school survivors. Some adoptees were put with families where they were treated as farm hands or subjected to horrific abuse, he said.


“It’s not an easy thing to talk about the hurts that many of them endured as children, not knowing who they were, being a brown face in an all-white school as an example,” said Mr. Robinson, a residential school survivor who organized the two-day gathering. “Those things are very difficult to talk about in this current day but they have to be addressed.”


Those adoptees at the gathering hope to emerge with a strategy for recognition and a sense of what supports they need to heal, he said.
“Compensation no doubt will come up,” Mr. Robinson said. “There’s got to be a certain degree of accountability by governments.”

Lakota People's Law Project, URGENT

From the Lakota People's Law Project, please read, please share, please ACT NOW! These children depend on YOU!


The Lakota People's Law Project is working to create a permanent solution for Lakota foster children and families by creating Lakota run foster care. Unfortunately, we are unable to take on individual cases at this time, but through spreading awareness, we can all help to create the change that so many young children need.
Many of you are aware of the latent corruption that is involved in the Mette Case of South Dakota. For those of you that aren't aware, there's a brief summary below and more information can be found at: http://lakotalaw.org/special-reports/the-mette-affair .
We ask you to contact Virgena Wiesler, the Acting Program Administrator for the Child Protection Services Department of the Department of Social Services in South Dakota. Please call, write, or email Ms. Wiesler telling her that you are aware of the activities and accusations that have been brought upon South Dakota's Depatment of Social Services and insist upon the release of the children from Wendy Mette's custody. These children have been through enough and they belong with their relatives that are more than able to care for them.

Mette Affair Summary:
The South Dakota Dept. of Social Services placed 7 Lakota foster children into foster care with a non-Native, known molester, Richard Mette, and his enabling wife, Wendy Mette, from 2000 to 2013. The DSS knew of the accusations against Mr. Mette, but still placed Lakota foster children with him.
The state ignored MULTIPLE complaints of sexual and physical abuse, and pleas for help from the children.
Brandon Taliaferro, the Assistant State’s Attorney responsible for criminal child abuse cases in Brown County, immediately began an investigation.
The police searched the Mette house and find more evidence of sexual abuse, including enough pornography to “pack a store”, including “family incest” porn.
The children revealed they had been subjected to physical abuse, sexual molestation and threats of being beaten if they did not comply with the molestation or if they told anyone.
The disgusted police charged Mr. Mette with 23 counts of child rape and incest, and Mrs. Mette with 11 counts of physical abuse and enabling.
The State prosecutor, however, first attempted to drop all charges, and charged sexual predator Mr. Mette with only one count of “spanking”. When the State was not allowed to do this, they decided to charge Mr. Mette with only one count of rape of a child under 10. The other 22 charges of aggravated child rape and incest were dropped.
The State then dropped all charges against Mrs. Mette, who the children said knew about and enabled the abuse.
The state then went after the Lakota childrens’ advocates instead! Rather than save the Mette children from a known sexual predator and his enabling wife, the state of South Dakota brought felony charges against Brandon Taliaferro, the attorney who started the investigation and advocated for the kids, and Shirley Schwab, the childrens’ Court
Appointed Special Advocate (CASA).
The judge acquitted the advocates of all charges, due to the state’s complete lack of evidence against Taliaferro and Schwab.
Children are now back with Mrs. Mette, where they can’t sue the State DSS. Since they are now minors in the custody of Wendy Mette, the person who enabled the abuse, they cannot sue the state without her permission and support.

Promises Made

People and friends keep me aware of what goes on within Facebook, personally, I am not a big fan of that kind of social media, but have learned there really are all types of people, some good, some bad, and all personalities to be found on social media.

So, the rumor begins within a private group on Facebook, a group of people who for whatever reasons, have a private group, these people are the ones who supported Capobianco's and in private, claim to have direct contact with them and Veronica. They claim that current photos of Veronica are shared with them. One of their more recent claims is very disturbing, that claim is, Veronica does not remember who Dusten Brown is. This is supposed to be a report coming right out of the Capobianco home.

Personally, I feel these people who are in the group, are troubled individuals. There are claims that Jessica Munday and Brad Cariofe head up this private group, but there is no confirmation to this, but the readers here can judge for themselves if the past of these two people supports the rumor that they are involved or lead this private group.

But lets have some common sense here, the first of which, is the Capobianco's claimed that when Veronica was forcibly removed from her fathers custody, and taken to South Carolina, that upon arriving at the Capobianco home, "Veronica remembered everything!" The claim was, Veronica, who was removed from their care at age 2, was gone two years, that this child remembered "everything"? I know for a fact that Veronica didn't even remember the Capobianco's after being gone for a year.

Of course, the Capobianco's wanted the public to think she remembered them when the released pictures of them playing with Veronica while she was on the Cherokee Nation grounds, but the simple truth is, she did not remember them, this child was playing with two people who at the time she had no knowledge that they would take her away from her daddy whom she loves and did not want to leave.

Remember all the times the Capobianco's claimed they "promise to keep her biological family a part of her life" they said this on national television, they said it to local news reporters in South Carolina and in Oklahoma, their words have been recorded, and quoted in news articles. How many times was this promise made on the Save Veronica pages?

Now, if it is true, that Veronica no longer remembers her daddy, that could only mean one thing, Capobianco's did not let him have contact with her, which would translate that they were making a promise they never intended to keep, they played some people for a fool who believed it hook line and sinker, OR the people who are currently making this claim, are liars, that Dusten Brown does have contact with his daughter and these people are spreading lies and rumors to hurt him.


http://splitfeathers.blogspot.com/2013/10/capobiancos-sit-down-for-dr-phil.html

Who is lying about Veronica's memory? You cannot have it both ways, that this child remembers everything in a house that she was removed from at age two, and did not see again for two years, and that after one year, she has no memory of her Daddy, Dusten Brown, whom she loves and adores.

Since I DO know people inside the Capobianco family, I can tell you that Veronica is growing, she DOES remember her daddy, she DOES ask to go home. It is said that Melanie, in private, has said that taking Veronica was not the best choice for HER, Melanie admits this child is having all kinds of emotional issues due to them removing her, but what they CANNOT DO is return her, because they do not want to admit they were WRONG, they do not want to confront the fact that this child, should never have been removed from her biological family, they cannot face the fact that if they stepped up with the situation, other current attempted adoptions that are being fought by biological families will be effected by them going public.

Melanie knows the only place Veronica wants to be is home with her daddy, Matt on the other hand believes she will "just get over it" and they do not understand that she WILL NOT "GET OVER IT" and I understand Matt's frustration, I don't understand his selfish need to hang onto this child who he KNOWS he has made miserable and sad with what THEY did to her! He cannot admit he is WRONG.

They WILL have to answer to Veronica, she WILL see this:

That is the law suit that the Caopbianco's filed against Veronica in Oklahoma. Such a pesky little fact, a fact that will NEVER go away. Of course we know, Capobianco's cannot sue the Cherokee Nation, as a Cherokee Citizen they cannot sue Dusten, and Veronica is a Cherokee Nation citizen as well, that does not forgive the fact that they NAMED HER in this law suit. A fact that Veronica will find in the future. There are way too many blogs, and websites on the internet for Veronica to find. Will they call everyone else a "liar"? Court documents do not lie.

What if, what if they have not allowed contact with Dusten and Veronica? If that has happened, Veronica will find that information as well, and again, her backlash to the Capobianco's will be a moment they are not prepared for.

Veronica will always deserve to know the truth, and the Capobianco's will tell her "their side" but she WILL find her Dad's side, and she WILL know she was always loved, and wanted by her family, and the people of the Cherokee Nation, she will know, Veronica "Ronie" Brown, will always be loved, and welcomed HOME, a place where HER people are, and she WILL return.

Troy Dunn, The Locator

Troy Dunn made his fortune by doing two things, first he helped found ancestry.com, to which he sold his share out, then he began charging to help locate family for adopted people, people who had been removed from their family, and for old friends to reunite.

Troy Dunn had a television show named "Troy The Locator" which has long ago been cancelled, he did try to get another show going, but that proved to be a total failure.

Many people who have been duped by Troy to pay for his services, have never gotten results, and all of the people who have given him money have learned the information he charged large amounts for basically free information! Yes, Troy is no magic maker.

Troy went on the Dr. Phil show to advocate for the Capobianco's during the time they were manipulating people into supporting them to take Veronica away from her daddy. Troy sat on Dr. Phil, and openly discussed his mother, keeping a packed bag by the back door, in case anyone ever came for her adopted son. Why would his mother have to do that? Because she was committing a crime. Troy Dunn stated his adoptive brother was Native American, so this would mean that his mother did not go through the proper procedure to adopt this child, she broke ICWA law. Worse, she was willing to take this child and run with him if the law should ever show up at her door!

First, lets take a look at Dr. Phil, here is this guy, who does not have a license to practice any kind of mental health issues, and only got his fame from being on Oprah. If not for Oprah, he would not be known today. But, Dr. Phil and his sponsors learned a great lesson, if you are going to debate a law, first learn something about that law, and don't allow fools like Jessica Munday try to explain these complicated issues, because, after he had the Veronica issue on his show, his sponsors seen a whole new kind of backlash that Dr. Phil was not ready for!

 Dr. Phil should recommend this reading to Troy Dunn as well.

Back to Troy Dunn, who seems to think that a Native child growing up in their culture is wrong, that white people must "save them" from this, and I am sure he thinks the best white people for the job are Mormon just like his mother, because he just seems to think it is what is in a child's best interest.

Lets see how this has worked out for the Dunn family... Meet Travis Joshua Dunn, the Indian adopted brother of Troy Dunn, this is what their way of thinking has done to Travis Joshua Dunn...

Notice the small print down in the lower right hand corner? That is no school photo, in fact, it is a booking photo, as it turns out, Travis has been in great trouble with the law, he has been a drug abuser, and this is why Troy Dunn would not say Travis's name on Dr. Phil, (he did slip up once and that was all that was needed)  This young man is lost, his adoptive mother, and his child stealing brother, took him to Florida where he would not be easy to find for the tribe to take him back.

Joshua's spirit is being called to come back to his people, this happens to all lost birds, the drum is calling for him to return.

Personally, I think Troy Dunn's mother should be charged with a felony for breaking a federal law that was made to protect Indian children...

There is one thing you can bet your bottom dollar on, Troy will not be helping Travis to find his biological family, because there is more to this story than he tells, and the skeletons are rattling hard in his closet.

We will never forget how Troy stalked Veronica, and her family, going onto restricted federal lands of the Cherokee Nation, he was trespassing, he knew it and did it anyway, all to get video of a family, because he planned on making a documentary about the Veronica case, oh boy, he thought he was going to make a lot of money off this little girl's tragic removal from her daddy! You could almost see Troy salivating as he talked to Dr. Phil about the documentary... in truth, Troy Dunn's documentary will be as popular with the sponsorship he needs as Casey Anthony was with her attempt, the difference is, Caylee is physically dead, Veronica was emotionally murdered....  Troy Dunn helped put Veronica into a lonely wooded area, only difference is, Veronica is being held captive by the Capobianco's.
