His mom said "really?" after finding her lost child after 13 years. She probably didn't care at all for him and the father was trying to protect his child.
I don’t think that at all. At the moment, her “really” probably meant she didn’t believe it at first because her son was gone for so long. It’s a normal reaction.
Crazy how people judge a person they know nothing about based on a single word she was claimed to have said. No context, no background, not even an audio recording from the mother saying it. That word on its own doesn't mean anything. Absolutely disgusting behavior!
He raised the child right. He became an honor student and was about to go to college, by the looks of it the father did a better job than the mom if she had custody of him, but you never know.
Atleast he was raised by loving father ...who knows his side of story..may be Mom is at fault.. though what he did was wrong..he did raise him right ..sent him to college .show he loved him..but as a mother I can understand her .hope she was good .
Agree. My son has left my son with bruises, belt marks, etc. Cops, CPS and courts never did a thing. Trust me, it crossed my mind. I now have sole custody, only took 10 years of fighting in court.
I mean, I know kidnapping is very wrong and I feel sorry for the mother and all, but shouldn't the well-being of the kid be prioritized in this situation? He loved his dad and he begged the judge not to jail him, for his sake I think the sentence should be a lot lower.
Involved in well being would include psychological emotions. What did he tell his child happened to his mother? How is his child's emotions now that he knows he was kidnapped from his mother and how he feels about his dad making that decision against a judges order?
He took a little kid away from his mom. The life the kid lost from not having his mom is what the dad has to pay for. It's the same as if the mom had died BUT SHE DIDNT. Do u have kids? If so if your kid was alive would u be ok with never seeing them and being a part of their life as long as their "wellbeing" was intact. I'm blown away by your comment. Itd had been the same if the dad killed the mom and just gotten away with it.
kylertinkles dada if I was the boy and my dad went to jail, I will feel responsible for the rest of my life. Kids love their parents unconditionally, so it must of been so painful to see his dad get all that time.
“Could’ve” Childbirth is hell. And to take a woman’s baby from her without saying anything is just cruel. Who’s to say the dad isn’t crazy? The mom didn’t give the child up for adoption, she wants the child and she cares about him.
Rochad Andre exactly... his father saved him from his cruel mother. My mom is great but many arnt. Like my friends mom is trash and I could see him running away from her
@@Salty7737 Actually she was apparently a substance abuser, and she was getting divorced. Also the kid knew what happened, he just didnt know his father gave him a false identity.
The only time they end up finding the child is when the child doesn’t need finding. He was doing just good alone with his dad. I think there’s more to the mother than we think. He obviously took him away for a reason ..
Veronica Rotin Imagine being that mother. Her child gets stolen off her, she thinks he’s dead and she’s had to live with that for over a decade. It must have been hell, and here you are sympathising with the dad. Unreal.
Lumino According to who? The mother also said the father constantly threatened to take the kid away from her if she broke up with him. And you’re sympathising with father? Unreal.
Exsactly my thoughts i just made a post about how its a big deal cause it's the father rather then the mom. I jist heard a storie of the same situation but it was the mom who took the kid an ran away when they were found all she got was couple months probation. But in this case when it's the dad...hes faceing feloney charges!!! But bit of back storie would be bit of help also.
@@navinci9761 Nah, the mother was planning on a divorce and leaving God knows where and presumably with his son since Court is usually biased against men. He likely feared never seeing his child again.
@@navinci9761 Who would have likely did the same thing with no hesitation considering she wanted the divorce lmao. I'm not saying what he did was right (although he seemingly did an amazing job at raising his kid) but when it comes down to whoever gets him first, is there really a good person here? Mother would have won him legally but is that actually fair? She didn't even seem all that joyful when he was found. Fathers have almost no chance at winning custody cases, faced with impossible odds he did what he believed was right. I can admire that because the boy doesn't hold any grudges towards either party. I have a hard time believing that would be the case if his mother had him instead.
@@dougdimmadomeownerofthedim2918 You don't even know if the mother was joyful or not, you're just assuming she isn't cause the father. The legit only reason you're assuming this is because she's the mother WHO MISSED HER CHILD'S WHOLE LIFE. Even if you think what he did isn't right you're technically still condoning the is crap.
Not too many parents kidnap their kids, and I'm sure that the majority that do (which are women) don't normally mistreat their children in anyway. I don't consider this kidnapping, more like running away with his child.
No matter what everyone else is say, it doesn't stop this guy from still being the father, like yeah the mother missed out and shit but you can't treat this guy like a hard criminal/shitty person. He still raised the little boy from childhood all through his teen years and gave him everything he needed.
Nah he’s a criminal because he stole that kid away from his mother. A woman sacrifices a lot to give birth to a child (body, health, hormones, health, etc) are never the same after. I’m not even talking about things like moms tearing all the way to their butthole and not being able to laugh/sneeze without peeing or poop without pain. Im talking about things like how a woman’s body literally gives EVERYTHING to their child to the point where it’s not uncommon for women to lose teeth (some losing all of them) and get osteoporosis because of all the nutrients leaching out of their bones to sustain the fetus. But it’s not only the baby that takes such a huge part of her, some cells from the baby also become part of the moms’ tissues too and in that way a mother becomes bonded to her child in ways that’s beyond words. Not to mention all the hormones that are released during childbirth that bond her to the baby in a way that it would cause excruciating devastation & pain to have the baby ripped apart from her like that. That was SEVERE pain, trauma, and injustice done to the mother by taking her baby away from her like that. Idc how good of a father he was, his crime was the inexplicable suffering he inflicted onto the mother who’s been looking for her child for the past 13 years..
Seems like he had a father who really loved him and raised him really well. Even took the time to bring his favorite blanket and stuffed animal. Good job dad! 👏👏👏
@@cole3941 maybe but I doubt it. That still doesn't explain why he didn't go through the courts because if she did abuse him then the courts would have took him away. Apparently she didn't if the father had to kidnap him
most likely they knew it was the dad but he got away because of his name change etc. You have to also remember this happened in the mid 90s when they didnt have the technology resources they have today to track missing individuals.

WithnDaSoul 3x Cause that's America. They don't think of the fact that the woman didn't care enough about finding the kid, and the probability she was not the right person to raise the kid, but they care to make it look like the father was a bad person. Honestly, sometimes when everything bis against you for no reason, you need to break the rule and get justice in your hands. A few weeks ago a mother wanted to turn her 7 yo son into trans because the mom hated men. If the father didn't press the court to change the ruling, the little boy would become something that he didn't choose and obviously can't choose at 7.
I hope the best for the dad. Raised the kid right. And a loving father never keeps a kid from a loving mother, unless there's something fucked up with her.
It's sad that this father felt he had no other choice. I'm not justifying this act and obviously don't know what his reasoning was but many dad's are dragged through endless court battles for the kids because of bitter mothers. Our courts need to do better for the children.
Crystal why dont you tell those to the thousands of mothers that take their children away from the father and dont allow the father to speak or even look at thier own children?
Damn but he really did love his son. He raised him well enough to be a honor student. It seems he may have lost custody afraid to lose his son because he wasn’t stable in some way. Hmmm the outcome would have been much different if he didn’t kidnap his son he would have never been able to spend that much time with him. Of course the mother matters but it still is a touching story. Maybe a good movie.
People don't know behind close door but this father wasn't abusive he give love to his son maybe wasn't happy with his marrage not give child support God knows what was in his mind hope he don't go long time in jail is not good for his son good luck man broken promis
Kinda says alot about her huh? Kind of make a small hint as to why the father ran away with his son. I wouldn't even call this kidnapping, it's literally running away with his son.
It sounds like the dad might have done a pretty good job raising him. Julian should testify in court and tell the truth, whatever it may be, about his life with his dad.
I feel like the dad shouldn’t get time because yes he did take him but he didn’t hurt him or abuse him he just was being a father and loved him and didn’t wanna lose him.
But in turn his mother lost him, there is no evidence that she was unfit or abusive, but apparently she is the bad guy because the son grew up well, which by the way does not excuse his fathers actions
It makes me very sad to see how fathers are many times treated as second class parents. If this man took this extreme decision chances are that he was being treated unfairly. I do not justify his actions, I just place myself as a mother in his position
He wasn't missing, he wasn't even kidnapped, his father left his mother and took him along. By the sounds of it the father loved him and did pretty well caring for him too, probably left the mother for a good reason.
It seems to me that the father resorted to such extremes, to save his son from a very bad mother. He should be released and acquitted. He was an excellent father, sacrificing himself for the sake of his son.
To a parent who thinks about kidnapping a child, you should think long and hard. Whatever you think you will gain by doing that is going to come.back to bite you in the butt. Your child will end up hating and resenting you for stealing them and their time away from the other parent. The few years won't be worth the lifetime of loss you will suffer. And then you have the whole criminal aspect too. Don't do it. (From a stolen child)
Most of the cases I've seen like this, the child stands by the parent who kidnapped them and has little to no contact or relationship with the parent who was absent. This shows that the child has been incredibly damaged by the kidnapping, regardless of appearing well adjusted. And the parent who spent years in pain from their child missing, is now dealt a new kind of pain. The child suffers most though. You sound like a beautiful exception.
@@robinc4605 parental alienation is strong. So is one spouse leaving and being absolutely impossible or vicious or malicious to drive the other parent away so they give up. None of it is good parenting. And you only harm the self-esteem of the child. It doesn't make you a good parent doing that. That being said, valid and I mean VALID claims of child molestation by a child about one parent I feel gives the other parent moral right to protect the child. Even if the court dictates the child goes to the offending parent. That may mean "kidnapping" them to hide until they are of an age they can protect and decide for themselves. The problem is too many vindictive parents make up these claims and brainwash the child into totally believing it's true when it isn't. This world is very sick.
Just finding out hes getting out right now. Hope he gets to see the grown man he raised so well soon. Also found out that the mom isnt even in his life after the fact.
this father does not deserve any charges he raised his son right and was about to send him to college.. you have no idea what circumstances he was under when he made the decision to take the kid
Crystal stfu do you know the full story?no i dont think so what if the women was beating her own child or what if she was unreasonable or was an addict.im sure the father did this for a good reason and for the sake of the child
ok guys i know that you think this guy is the good one in this scenario but just because the boy was an honors student doesn't make him a good father so please stop assuming the mother is the bad one you really can't make that accusation with so little evidence they would say if the mother was abusive!
I’m 12 in Alabama and having one of the deadliest metro crossovers in the world Birmingham-Hoover with a near 1.5 million population people go missing every other day and it’s extremely dangerous here, where I live it’s not been bad at kidnapping to only once ever I believe.
A lot of the comments are saying he gave him a home, raised him, and now he was going to college so he’s not that bad, and I agree he’s not but he took away a son from his MOTHER! the lady lost 13!!! years of her child’s live, do y’all have any idea what that mother has gone through not knowing where her son was. I’m happy that the child grew up great and that the father took good care of him but that doesn’t take away what he did
The father probably knew he would lose custody over his son, so instead of dealing with it he just took him and ran. Who blames him? He’d fight and fight and in the end the child always goes to the mother
just cause a dad is sending his kid to college means he is a good parent? does not say anything about how he is. a bad parent can send a kid to college too
Mental?! What’s mental is stealing a child from a parent. Doesn’t matter if it was mom or dad who stole the child, you can’t take a child from either parent because you wanted to. He didn’t want to protect the child from anything, or he would have take her ass to court. This poor women searched for years to find her baby with no success. While a “father” lied to his son for 13 years. That isn’t love the father a bad man a deserves what he got
I remember hearing about this at the time and I live in Ireland. I also remember that Julian told the judge that he just got his mam back and didn't want to lose his dad. Though he knew what his dad did was wrong he just wanted to have both his parents.
It’s weird though, the child goes missing, and the father flees, wouldn’t authorities try to find the father since it was a coincidence that as soon as the child goes missing, the father leaves? Also the fact that the father does nothing to show interest that his son went missing. This all seems fucking weird.
I feel for the mother but not sure if he should receive felony charges, he raised his son to be a good person and student and seemed like a great father. He could have been trying to remove his son from the mother who could have been a negative influence. Still just a tough situation all around
A family member had custody of her 4 daughters (2 from her 1st marriage 2 from her 2nd) She was more interested in partying and screwing guys then being a mom. Her 1st husband had remarried. He went to court and got custody of his 2 little girls. She came up pregnant with a fifth child. The man was married. She went to her husbands house in the middle of the night cut the window screen and left with the girls, He did not see them again till they were 18. They did not have a good life. One got herself put in custody of the state at 14 or 15. Both had mental trouble. The dad was manic but was on medication and lead a very normal life, Not sure what mental problems the Mom had but she was bat-shit-crazy. They might have had a normal life if she had not taken them.
I need more info before picking sides. Give us background details on the mother & father. What made/ why did the father kidnap his own son? We need more info!
Yea but the son looks just right, beside he is being separated with his mother , I think he really had a nice childhood, his father cares about him, we can say her mother could've done a better job raising him if this kid is a mess, but i think he grew up just fine just like a normal boy
The material point is that both parents have a right to raise their children. You can't just disappear into the night because you have an inflated sense of self importance. That is so cruel.
Men if I was that kid I would testify at court defending the man that raise me buy me clothes help me with homework gave me a roof and took me to school every day ! And was there for me on my all my graduations ! I would fight for that men at all cost !
So because he did a semi good job of raising him he doesnt deserve jail time? So if I steal your car and take wonderful care of it I shouldn’t go to jail. LOGIC. 😐
Id like to hear the father's side...to "abduct" him and do absolutely no harm to him makes you wonder if he was just doing the right thing. You have to remember, as man, especially in some states, it's nearly impossible to win custody of a child, especially if there's no physical abuse.
Exactly! Dumb ass mom. Probably wouldn't of raised her son right, that's probably why the dad left and changed their Identity. The mom is fighting for custody and ofc she is gonna win because she is a woman!
Am I the only one who wanted to see how close the age progression software was to getting it right?

We advance exponentially each year compared to the last. Look at cell phones.. Look at the internet. Look at all the "smart" devices that didn't exist not even 6 years ago. It's a much different place compared to 20 years ago when this case first happened.
@@dundun8323 thank you very much for explaining.
His mom said "really?" after finding her lost child after 13 years. She probably didn't care at all for him and the father was trying to protect his child.
I don’t think that at all. At the moment, her “really” probably meant she didn’t believe it at first because her son was gone for so long. It’s a normal reaction.
Crazy how people judge a person they know nothing about based on a single word she was claimed to have said. No context, no background, not even an audio recording from the mother saying it.
That word on its own doesn't mean anything. Absolutely disgusting behavior!
Thats a second hand reaction tbh
Why does this new story not say why the father did this? They want us to assume he was some monster and the mother was an angel.
He raised the child right. He became an honor student and was about to go to college, by the looks of it the father did a better job than the mom if she had custody of him, but you never know.
Exactly
Arnel Cabusao Yeah but he didn’t have to kidnap the child.
Soft ッ Bear maybe he had too. What if the mom was dangerous. She could’ve been abusive and the dad wanted to save the kid and run away
I love you ❤
Lol the guys face when he said: “she was like, really?”
NawsehHaji 😆
Appears she just didn't give a f*ck
Atleast he was raised by loving father ...who knows his side of story..may be Mom is at fault.. though what he did was wrong..he did raise him right ..sent him to college .show he loved him..but as a mother I can understand her .hope she was good .
deepz513 you’re an idiot
Anthony Guarino he shouldn’t have abducted his child but he gave him a good life he’s not a monster
Crystal although you have a valid point, no-one knows the circumstances of the family
Agree. My son has left my son with bruises, belt marks, etc. Cops, CPS and courts never did a thing. Trust me, it crossed my mind. I now have sole custody, only took 10 years of fighting in court.
Anthony Guarino you’re English sucks
I mean, I know kidnapping is very wrong and I feel sorry for the mother and all, but shouldn't the well-being of the kid be prioritized in this situation? He loved his dad and he begged the judge not to jail him, for his sake I think the sentence should be a lot lower.
Jamie Wilkerson but what he did was still wrong we can’t have sympathy
Involved in well being would include psychological emotions. What did he tell his child happened to his mother? How is his child's emotions now that he knows he was kidnapped from his mother and how he feels about his dad making that decision against a judges order?
imagine missing out on your child for 13 years... i doubt mom would feel the same way as you.
He took a little kid away from his mom. The life the kid lost from not having his mom is what the dad has to pay for. It's the same as if the mom had died BUT SHE DIDNT. Do u have kids? If so if your kid was alive would u be ok with never seeing them and being a part of their life as long as their "wellbeing" was intact. I'm blown away by your comment. Itd had been the same if the dad killed the mom and just gotten away with it.
kylertinkles dada if I was the boy and my dad went to jail, I will feel responsible for the rest of my life. Kids love their parents unconditionally, so it must of been so painful to see his dad get all that time.
The dad looks kinda scary.. But I honestly think he raised his son well from the looks of it
The mother could’ve been a toxic person and he wanted to give his Son better life. Free that man
“Could’ve”
Childbirth is hell. And to take a woman’s baby from her without saying anything is just cruel. Who’s to say the dad isn’t crazy? The mom didn’t give the child up for adoption, she wants the child and she cares about him.
Rochad Andre exactly... his father saved him from his cruel mother. My mom is great but many arnt. Like my friends mom is trash and I could see him running away from her
Rochad Andre I mean as long as u have one good parent...
The das raised the son to be an honor student
@@Salty7737 Actually she was apparently a substance abuser, and she was getting divorced. Also the kid knew what happened, he just didnt know his father gave him a false identity.
This some Rapunzel stuff.

The only time they end up finding the child is when the child doesn’t need finding. He was doing just good alone with his dad. I think there’s more to the mother than we think. He obviously took him away for a reason ..
I agree. Kidnapping should be legalised because there’s obviously a reason the kidnappers take their victims.
Carlo Ancelotti when from the family. Tho obviously
Veronica Rotin
Imagine being that mother. Her child gets stolen off her, she thinks he’s dead and she’s had to live with that for over a decade. It must have been hell, and here you are sympathising with the dad. Unreal.
Lumino
According to who? The mother also said the father constantly threatened to take the kid away from her if she broke up with him. And you’re sympathising with father? Unreal.
Exsactly my thoughts i just made a post about how its a big deal cause it's the father rather then the mom. I jist heard a storie of the same situation but it was the mom who took the kid an ran away when they were found all she got was couple months probation. But in this case when it's the dad...hes faceing feloney charges!!! But bit of back storie would be bit of help also.
The father seemed like a good father. Maybe the mother was the bad one :/
There a whole article Google it, the father barely even saw the kid and the day he did he just straight up stole him from his mother
@@navinci9761 Nah, the mother was planning on a divorce and leaving God knows where and presumably with his son since Court is usually biased against men. He likely feared never seeing his child again.
@@dougdimmadomeownerofthedim2918 si he did that to the mother, that makes total sense
@@navinci9761 Who would have likely did the same thing with no hesitation considering she wanted the divorce lmao. I'm not saying what he did was right (although he seemingly did an amazing job at raising his kid) but when it comes down to whoever gets him first, is there really a good person here? Mother would have won him legally but is that actually fair? She didn't even seem all that joyful when he was found. Fathers have almost no chance at winning custody cases, faced with impossible odds he did what he believed was right. I can admire that because the boy doesn't hold any grudges towards either party.
I have a hard time believing that would be the case if his mother had him instead.
@@dougdimmadomeownerofthedim2918 You don't even know if the mother was joyful or not, you're just assuming she isn't cause the father.
The legit only reason you're assuming this is because she's the mother WHO MISSED HER CHILD'S WHOLE LIFE. Even if you think what he did isn't right you're technically still condoning the is crap.

“Father of the year saves son from evil mother”.
Based father.
Real dad👍
Hopefully the dad doesn't get into too much trouble. Seems like he raised his son well.
His "father" has a striking resemblance to Jeffrey Epstein
I have an uncle who could be Epstein's twin. Doppelgangers do exist!
That’s his real father whats the point to the parenthesis?
Looks like fonzie (Henry Winkler) from happy days I thought lol
U talking about the sex tracficer? That enstein?
Right!?
How was it a kidnapping if he was being looked after by his father?
Swtich the roles and nobody would bat an eye
@JCGames X the kid was a preschooler at the time, he wouldn't be able to make a good decision
aarnts I mean I think he still made the right decision
aarnts I mean I think he still made the right decision
Liam Gallagher It was kidnapping because the father took the kid secretly and changed the kids name for all these years.
I don’t think his father deserves the ‘bad guy’ label that media is putting on him
How many missing kids are considered dead that are in this situation
Salene Brom - When a child disappears with a parent, he is likely not dead.
Not too many parents kidnap their kids, and I'm sure that the majority that do (which are women) don't normally mistreat their children in anyway. I don't consider this kidnapping, more like running away with his child.
No matter what everyone else is say, it doesn't stop this guy from still being the father, like yeah the mother missed out and shit but you can't treat this guy like a hard criminal/shitty person. He still raised the little boy from childhood all through his teen years and gave him everything he needed.
Nah he’s a criminal because he stole that kid away from his mother. A woman sacrifices a lot to give birth to a child (body, health, hormones, health, etc) are never the same after. I’m not even talking about things like moms tearing all the way to their butthole and not being able to laugh/sneeze without peeing or poop without pain. Im talking about things like how a woman’s body literally gives EVERYTHING to their child to the point where it’s not uncommon for women to lose teeth (some losing all of them) and get osteoporosis because of all the nutrients leaching out of their bones to sustain the fetus. But it’s not only the baby that takes such a huge part of her, some cells from the baby also become part of the moms’ tissues too and in that way a mother becomes bonded to her child in ways that’s beyond words. Not to mention all the hormones that are released during childbirth that bond her to the baby in a way that it would cause excruciating devastation & pain to have the baby ripped apart from her like that. That was SEVERE pain, trauma, and injustice done to the mother by taking her baby away from her like that. Idc how good of a father he was, his crime was the inexplicable suffering he inflicted onto the mother who’s been looking for her child for the past 13 years..
Seems like he had a father who really loved him and raised him really well. Even took the time to bring his favorite blanket and stuffed animal. Good job dad! 👏👏👏
“Did the mom even care about the child?” is the question I want to know
If she didn't she wouldn't have reported him missing
Ms Blessie she could have reported him missing to seem like a good person but then treat the child terrible once she has him
@@cole3941 maybe but I doubt it. That still doesn't explain why he didn't go through the courts because if she did abuse him then the courts would have took him away. Apparently she didn't if the father had to kidnap him
Ms Blessie maybe the court wouldn’t believe him (sorry I was dead for so long)
@@cole3941 you're alright it's not like I was waiting. Lol
So her son goes missing and the father leaves and some how they never assumed he was with the dad or how did this happen exactly?
most likely they knew it was the dad but he got away because of his name change etc. You have to also remember this happened in the mid 90s when they didnt have the technology resources they have today to track missing individuals. Back then if you just picked up and left everything behind, it would be hard for someone to track you down. Especially if you obtained a fake ID and worked under a different Social. Nowadays everything is recorded and stored indefinitely so there's always a trail. It wasn't like that in the mid 90s
nypost.com/2015/11/05/alabama-child-missing-for-13-years-found-in-ohio/
The dad even left a note. But bc he changed identity they couldn't find him.
Poor father, courts hand custody to the mother without even thinking about it or hearing the father out. Same thing happened to me as a kid.
Wait why would he go to jail if that’s his father? Why didn’t the mother think ohh let me call his father through the 13 years?
Exactly
WithnDaSoul 3x
Cause that's America. They don't think of the fact that the woman didn't care enough about finding the kid, and the probability she was not the right person to raise the kid, but they care to make it look like the father was a bad person.
Honestly, sometimes when everything bis against you for no reason, you need to break the rule and get justice in your hands.
A few weeks ago a mother wanted to turn her 7 yo son into trans because the mom hated men. If the father didn't press the court to change the ruling, the little boy would become something that he didn't choose and obviously can't choose at 7.
Because he changed his identify
I’m sure the father wasn’t answering her calls & she didn’t know why he wasn’t answering .. I’m assuming that.
Considering he changed his identity, he probably changed his phone number too
poor boy probably thinks it’s he’s fault his dad is in trouble
I’m so glad his alive and doing well. Bless his heart now maybe he get to know his moms side of the family and continue college
That sucks being the kid he doesn’t know his mother hopefully he can love his mother as his mother.
I hope the best for the dad. Raised the kid right. And a loving father never keeps a kid from a loving mother, unless there's something fucked up with her.
It's sad that this father felt he had no other choice. I'm not justifying this act and obviously don't know what his reasoning was but many dad's are dragged through endless court battles for the kids because of bitter mothers. Our courts need to do better for the children.
It's not just dads. Either parent can do this to the other one. I'm speaking from experience.
@Crystal I bet you would think it's ok if the mother took him from his father right. Father's have just as many rights as a mother
Crystal why dont you tell those to the thousands of mothers that take their children away from the father and dont allow the father to speak or even look at thier own children?
Crystal ok and read my comment again
They both had custody he took off w/ the kid
Damn but he really did love his son. He raised him well enough to be a honor student. It seems he may have lost custody afraid to lose his son because he wasn’t stable in some way. Hmmm the outcome would have been much different if he didn’t kidnap his son he would have never been able to spend that much time with him. Of course the mother matters but it still is a touching story. Maybe a good movie.
People don't know behind close door but this father wasn't abusive he give love to his son maybe wasn't happy with his marrage not give child support God knows what was in his mind hope he don't go long time in jail is not good for his son good luck man broken promis
I’m very glad to hear that he’s alive and doing well that’s what really matters.
Why does RUclips show me this
This is 4 years old
J Ramirez it was in my recommended to lmao. But i remember when this was in big news too
Same
yea the dad didn’t cause him pain or anything and some of y’all think it’s a good thing but imagine what the mom was feeling that was her kid
lilly h the mom didn’t care about him idiot
Uncle Pablo and how do you know that?
So when the Alabama police told the mother the good news...
“She was like really”
"She was like......rEaLLy ? : | "
Kinda says alot about her huh? Kind of make a small hint as to why the father ran away with his son. I wouldn't even call this kidnapping, it's literally running away with his son.
So if a mother left with the child it would be ok? And people will just assume the dads abusing them or something.
It sounds like the dad might have done a pretty good job raising him. Julian should testify in court and tell the truth, whatever it may be, about his life with his dad.
“They are asking for privacy at this point”
My mom: “Of course they are”🤣
I feel like the dad shouldn’t get time because yes he did take him but he didn’t hurt him or abuse him he just was being a father and loved him and didn’t wanna lose him.
But in turn his mother lost him, there is no evidence that she was unfit or abusive, but apparently she is the bad guy because the son grew up well, which by the way does not excuse his fathers actions
So it’s illegal to take your kid and leave lmao
The_ltz_guy Master it is when both parents are fighting for custody of the child
Are you fucking stupid??? The mother had to miss out on her kids whole childhood

He was safe with a parent. He was not abused and is doing well. Hope he is not messed up by this legal battle
It makes me very sad to see how fathers are many times treated as second class parents. If this man took this extreme decision chances are that he was being treated unfairly. I do not justify his actions, I just place myself as a mother in his position
WTH just “Really” from a mothers mouth when her child is found after decades. His father did no harm to his child. there must be a reason behind that.
He wasn't missing, he wasn't even kidnapped, his father left his mother and took him along. By the sounds of it the father loved him and did pretty well caring for him too, probably left the mother for a good reason.
Considering the well known bias against men in family court, its a wonder this doesn't happen more often.
Crystal “it’s a wonder this doesn’t happen more often” can you read you dense bitch?
The father took the child and raised him well. If the kid is on the honor roll most probably he’s got a good home environment.
Everyone I’m not lying this was in Share my Story channel
It seems to me that the father resorted to such extremes, to save his son from a very bad mother. He should be released and acquitted. He was an excellent father, sacrificing himself for the sake of his son.
so why did he take him away? there must have been a reaso.
Zedd didn’t wanna lose custody of him
@@bumpkin7014 or the wife was on drugs or alcohol.
To a parent who thinks about kidnapping a child, you should think long and hard. Whatever you think you will gain by doing that is going to come.back to bite you in the butt. Your child will end up hating and resenting you for stealing them and their time away from the other parent. The few years won't be worth the lifetime of loss you will suffer. And then you have the whole criminal aspect too. Don't do it. (From a stolen child)
Most of the cases I've seen like this, the child stands by the parent who kidnapped them and has little to no contact or relationship with the parent who was absent. This shows that the child has been incredibly damaged by the kidnapping, regardless of appearing well adjusted. And the parent who spent years in pain from their child missing, is now dealt a new kind of pain. The child suffers most though. You sound like a beautiful exception.
@@robinc4605 parental alienation is strong. So is one spouse leaving and being absolutely impossible or vicious or malicious to drive the other parent away so they give up. None of it is good parenting. And you only harm the self-esteem of the child. It doesn't make you a good parent doing that. That being said, valid and I mean VALID claims of child molestation by a child about one parent I feel gives the other parent moral right to protect the child. Even if the court dictates the child goes to the offending parent. That may mean "kidnapping" them to hide until they are of an age they can protect and decide for themselves. The problem is too many vindictive parents make up these claims and brainwash the child into totally believing it's true when it isn't. This world is very sick.
@@Dachdogoriginal Falsely accusing someone, a parent no less, of molesting a child is as sick and disgusting as accusations get.

Crystal stfu do you know the full story?no i dont think so what if the women was beating her own child or what if she was unreasonable or was an addict.im sure the father did this for a good reason and for the sake of the child
ok guys i know that you think this guy is the good one in this scenario but just because the boy was an honors student doesn't make him a good father so please stop assuming the mother is the bad one you really can't make that accusation with so little evidence they would say if the mother was abusive!
*Both dad and child go missing all of a sudden*
Police: “nah we won’t look into that”
I’m 12 in Alabama and having one of the deadliest metro crossovers in the world Birmingham-Hoover with a near 1.5 million population people go missing every other day and it’s extremely dangerous here, where I live it’s not been bad at kidnapping to only once ever I believe.
She was like: *Really?!*
Got me cracking up😂
A lot of the comments are saying he gave him a home, raised him, and now he was going to college so he’s not that bad, and I agree he’s not but he took away a son from his MOTHER! the lady lost 13!!! years of her child’s live, do y’all have any idea what that mother has gone through not knowing where her son was. I’m happy that the child grew up great and that the father took good care of him but that doesn’t take away what he did
at least he is a good dad !!
The father probably knew he would lose custody over his son, so instead of dealing with it he just took him and ran.
Who blames him? He’d fight and fight and in the end the child always goes to the mother
Good morning David.
Good morning George.
Good morning AMERICA 😃
just cause a dad is sending his kid to college means he is a good parent? does not say anything about how he is. a bad parent can send a kid to college too
I pray he and his mother can reconnect and build a relationship. I pray he continues to succeed in life and does not let this take him off his course
Imagine a father getting accused of kidnapping his own child, whilst taking care of him an the son has no word of anything bad. People are mental
Mental?! What’s mental is stealing a child from a parent. Doesn’t matter if it was mom or dad who stole the child, you can’t take a child from either parent because you wanted to. He didn’t want to protect the child from anything, or he would have take her ass to court. This poor women searched for years to find her baby with no success. While a “father” lied to his son for 13 years. That isn’t love the father a bad man a deserves what he got
I remember hearing about this at the time and I live in Ireland. I also remember that Julian told the judge that he just got his mam back and didn't want to lose his dad. Though he knew what his dad did was wrong he just wanted to have both his parents.
It’s weird though, the child goes missing, and the father flees, wouldn’t authorities try to find the father since it was a coincidence that as soon as the child goes missing, the father leaves? Also the fact that the father does nothing to show interest that his son went missing. This all seems fucking weird.
Why was the father charged??? It was his son and the kid was doing really well by being an honor student and heading to college
I feel for the mother but not sure if he should receive felony charges, he raised his son to be a good person and student and seemed like a great father. He could have been trying to remove his son from the mother who could have been a negative influence. Still just a tough situation all around
A family member had custody of her 4 daughters (2 from her 1st marriage 2 from her 2nd) She was more interested in partying and screwing guys then being a mom. Her 1st husband had remarried. He went to court and got custody of his 2 little girls. She came up pregnant with a fifth child. The man was married. She went to her husbands house in the middle of the night cut the window screen and left with the girls, He did not see them again till they were 18. They did not have a good life. One got herself put in custody of the state at 14 or 15. Both had mental trouble. The dad was manic but was on medication and lead a very normal life, Not sure what mental problems the Mom had but she was bat-shit-crazy. They might have had a normal life if she had not taken them.
So he's going to prison for abducting his own son?
It would have been more helpful to tell us why the Father took his son and ran, rather than telling us about the stuffed orca whale.
@lion What reports did you find?
sucks for the mom who hasn't been able to watch her kid grow up. and the kid who's life has completely changed
Was the father also missing?..
That's what I don't get. So her son goes missing and the father leaves and no one ever thought it was suspicious? Sounds weird to me.
I need more info before picking sides. Give us background details on the mother & father. What made/ why did the father kidnap his own son? We need more info!
There's always two sides of the story" who's to say that the mother could have done a better job of raising him? There's a lot more to it.
Yea but the son looks just right, beside he is being separated with his mother , I think he really had a nice childhood, his father cares about him, we can say her mother could've done a better job raising him if this kid is a mess, but i think he grew up just fine just like a normal boy
@@lemonadefm2566 I totally agree, had the father not raised him in a proper way he wouldn't be the strong intelligent young man he is today.
The material point is that both parents have a right to raise their children. You can't just disappear into the night because you have an inflated sense of self importance. That is so cruel.
Men if I was that kid I would testify at court defending the man that raise me buy me clothes help me with homework gave me a roof and took me to school every day ! And was there for me on my all my graduations ! I would fight for that men at all cost !
Thank the lord that he is still alive.
You can't steal your own kid if no one person has sole custody
And this is why cops need to stop slacking when it comes to amber alerts involving parents
Hell no! they have to have their donuts 3 times per day!
13 years ago there wasn’t any amber alerts u fucking dumbass
Poor family 🥺..
😂 I thought the thumbnail was the before and after 13 year later
I’m going to hell
So because he did a semi good job of raising him he doesnt deserve jail time? So if I steal your car and take wonderful care of it I shouldn’t go to jail. LOGIC. 😐
But when a woman does it it's a different story
Crystal this was from a month ago. I doubt they’ll see this lol
@Crystal no you just here cases of mother's killing there kid your a sexiest man hater
Are you dumb ?
Id like to hear the father's side...to "abduct" him and do absolutely no harm to him makes you wonder if he was just doing the right thing. You have to remember, as man, especially in some states, it's nearly impossible to win custody of a child, especially if there's no physical abuse.
This looks like it doesn’t have the full story but good for him knowing his birth mom i guess
I don’t think families of missing children being told “never give up hope” is the most healthy advice.
Why didn’t she ask the dad and suspect him first......
Exactly! Dumb ass mom. Probably wouldn't of raised her son right, that's probably why the dad left and changed their Identity. The mom is fighting for custody and ofc she is gonna win because she is a woman!
Dad was a great dad, can't catch a break hope they didn't give that man time.
