    The wife could have spent 23 years in jail for his 'murder'. How scary is that.

      Not really correct, Dez. Many people have been jailed on circumstantial evidence. No body. No murder weapon. No evidence except 'we think you did it.'

      I believe Richard has said he left his family due to thinking they were not really his family but replaced by skrulls(Reptilians) but has since admitted he was wrong and just scared to be tried down. heres some of his conspiracy theorys on ancient aliens and the face o n mars.

In history murders, killings, and crimes were legal hell even encouraged and there wasn't any laws or people to enforce them. There were senseless genocides, barbaric stonings and beatings everyday. If someone was found out to have stolen property or cheated on their spouse then they would be dragged into the center of their village and the residents would all throw rocks at them and beat them to death. Nowadays we have a much more civilized and sensible way of solving problems, better morals, and respect for life.

    My dad did the same thing in 1964.
    When someone disappears the wife and kids pay the price. My mom could not receive any financial help. No social security benefits for the children, no life insurance, no help with food and so much more. The wife is left with all the financial debt. Back in the 60’s women were not allowed to have a bank account or credit card without the signature of her husband.
    Any man or woman that does this should be thrown in prison.

I understand having issues with your spouse but abandoning your children, I will never understand. I'm glad that after all the years this man's family got some closure on what happened to their father. It's been over 30 years since we last saw our mother. I heard she started a new life without us.

    My aunt vanished like this and was declared dead. It happened way before I was born. She and her two year old daughter just vanished one day, along with the babies father. Foul play was suspected, especially when they found my two year old cousin abandoned in a orphanage across the country months and months later. My aunt never used her social security number after that. After police gave up, my grandmother hired private detectives, who never found a trace. Over 15 years later, my grandmother gets a letter from New Mexico. My aunt is alive, and it said "by the time you read this, I will be on my way driving to Michigan to visit"
    I was like 8. All I knew is suddenly, days before Christmas, my dad announced we were spending Christmas in Florida. We didnt have the kind of money for vacations. Christmas morning we opened presents and packed up and drove to Florida. I found out when I was older, that when my dad found out that my aunt had been alive this entire time, had abandoned her daughter for her mother to raise, he was enraged and refused to be in the state when she showed up.
    She never explained what happened. Never gave even her own mother any answers for what happened, where she went, why she was gone, why new Mexico? I started getting gifts in the mail, my aunt had signed me and my little sister up for these "animal of the month" clubs, we got different books about different animals each month and this binder to put the cards about the animals in. That is when my parents had to sit us down and explain my dad had a sister, he had never told us(well never told me and my sister, my mom knew lol).
    Then a year and a half later, my uncle died and my aunt came here for the funeral. I met her for the first time. She looked significantly older than my dad, her skin just looked like she lived a really rough life. She had this deep scratchy voice that scared me and I've always wondered what those 15+ years were like. Was she trafficked? Was she running from a crime and came back because the statute of limitations ran out? Was she harmed? She's still alive but she will never give answers to those questions

      @@moseymay1772 Yeah, the inquisitive part of me wishes she felt comfortable talking about it. When she abandoned my two year old cousin, authorities were thankfully able to locate her and reunite her with my grandparents. They legally adopted her(which technically makes her my cousin by blood and my aunt by law lol). When my aunt resurfaced, she tried to start a relationship with her daughter again but it didn't really work out. The fact that she won't even tell my cousin what happened, when my cousin disappeared with her, is so wild to me. I can't imagine how confusing that had to be for my cousin, when the mother she assumed was dead, suddenly came to visit for Christmas and didn't want to explain where she had been for the last 15+ years of her life.

The fact that she thought she was going to be in the will, after all she had done and the way she behaved after coming back 🤦🏻‍♀️ that was shocking.

    My "Dad" did something similar to my Mom, my sister and me. He left us in '94. He got up really early in the morning, stole ALL our money, filled a backpack with some clothing and just vanished. We didn't get a card, or a letter, nor a single word or lead of where he was. 25 years later, now in my 40s, I found him but he got away before I could reach him (thankfully for his well-being). It turnd out he never changed his name, but he got married again and had a child and a totally different family. He ruined our lives 'cause we got kicked out of the house we were renting, and ended up living with his brother's wife's derelict motel. I had to abandon my education to support my Mom and sister (we were 14 and 16 when he left).

I learnt a couple of months back that he died (supposedly), so he got away with everything he did. That's my only regret, not being able to find him sooner to at least kick his ass, but unfortunately, here in Argentina you don't have the luxury of wasting time and money without working to go find a man that didn't want to be found.

In 2018 his first wife sued him for back child support in which the judge added the maximum interest of 18%. He was ordered to pay nearly two million. It's doubtful that they ever got a dime.

In 2016 my uncle tracked his half-sister in facebook and in 2017 my sister and I met our half-uncle?? And said that they only found out they were second family (only the children, the second wife knew it all along) when they applied for death insurance and my grandmother was still listed as his wife on paper.
    P.S. they also left their two other children in my mom's home town in young age before they disappeared. Sadly the younger girl died as what my mom said and until now they didn't have a clue where the other one who is a boy maybe in his 40's now. After that they had 3 other children and they graduated with a degree in college while my mom and her other 8 siblings grew up struggling in poverty with my grandmother who worked hard for them to survive.

I hope he sits in confinement a good long time, and eats up all the "freedom" and joy he stole from his family so long ago.

      I know how you feel when your dad not in your life when you are young.Lonely n lost. 17 yrs later I went to live with him. He was rich, n greedy. He was selfish. I be broke while drove n had money on him. I was 23yo lived with him 2 yrs. No privacy.Bought a house cash.But wouldn't help his own son with money.Sadly I left him. You can't teach old dog new tricks. Years later he was killed brutal way. Broke my heart! I still miss him. RIP

    My Dad disappeared when I was very young. This was in around 1957. We moved in with my Grandparents on my Mother's side. Honestly I don't remember missing him at all. Never heard a word from anyone on my Dad's side of the family, ever. Didn't bother me then and doesn't bother me now. My father called me when I was 22 and I met with him. We talked and he died 6 months later. So to sum it all up my Mother eventually re married a successful man that legally adopted me giving me his last name and my Mom went on to have 3 more children ( 2 boys and 1 girl ) which are my wonderful siblings. We are very close. Do I have questions? yes. Would I go back and change things if I could? no
    It is what it is and my Dad made his choice and I made mine.

He utterly abandoned his responsibility to his wife and to help HIS children even letting his 6 & 9 yo sons think he was dead. The man has NO CLASS, NO CHARACTER. Just lived for his own wants, never mind his family's needs or even basic human decency.

    This is exactly why you always have an emergency savings account if you're a stay at home mom--one that he doesn't know about. Don't depend 100% on anyone to provide for you because of situations like this. It's the sad truth. There are so many stories of men just walking out on their wives and children. It's utterly insane. So if you're a stay-at-home mom, be sure to stash the weekly allowance he's giving you (LOL) and get a side hustle.

    In February 2017, Hoagland pleaded guilty to a charge of aggravated identity theft. He served nearly two years in federal prison before returning to Indiana in April.
    Meanwhile, his wife pursued him in court for child support. Earlier this month, a judge in Hamilton County Indiana decided Hoagland owes his wife and sons $1.86 million, the Star reported.
    "I was glad that we finally had made it to that point where he would be held accountable for his behavior," Linda Iseler told the Star.
    Douglas Hoagland, also out of custody, was on hand for the recent court hearing. It was the first time he had seen his father since 1993.
    "If you think you had two kids and you wanted to see them so bad, you think you'd be a little bit emotional," Douglas recalled to the Star. "But this guy, nothing."
    It's unclear if Iseler and her sons will get any money from the judgment. Hoagland's assets are tied up in divorce proceedings with his Florida wife.
