THIS IS SICK...VERY CULT-LIKE....MORE LEGAL HARASSMENT AND "DISCONNECTION" CONTINUE IN WESTERN KENTUCKY!
On June 20, 2002, Scientologist Laura Vannoy Padgett, filed a document in the Hopkins Circuit Court civil court proceedings, titled "MOTION TO TEMPORARILY SUSPEND VISITATION."
The introductory language of the motion acknowledges her son's court ordered extended visitation with his father during the summer. However, she goes on to argue that she's "been informed that there is a bench warrant for his arrest in criminal proceedings (under the SAME judge that she is the complaining witness in that criminal action.)
Her argument was; "that she was fearful of sending her 17 year old son to Massachusetts to visit with the Respondent (his Dad,) since he may be arrested and the child would be stranded in Massachusetts until further arrangements could be made." Laura Vannoy's private civil attorney Bill Whitledge, asserted all contact with the father in respect to visitation be severed until the arrest issues are resolved in criminal court matters.
Tom was not available for comment. But unidentifided friends and relatives expressed dismay, anguish, and continued fear for motives that are very aberrated from a secular reach and understanding.
This motion Laura Vannoy filed, is to be heard in court on July 1, 2002. Although she acknowledges that prior court orders for her to produce her son to his father on June 21st. for 5 weeks, it appears she will not follow those prior Orders in hopes that Judge Boteler will rule in her favor as a personal friend of her parents' and sister's former employer in these newest ploys - all sympathetic to Hubbard scripture.
