Aaron's Law is still pretty new. The bill was just passed into law in Oregon in 2005. This law grants a parent of a kidnapped child, or a parent whose custodial rights have been frustrated, the right to pursue the matter in civil court when pursuit in family court will not remedy the situation. Sean Cruz, an Oregon parent, wrote that bill because of his own experience on the receiving end of custodial interference.
Desiree Young, mother of Kyron Horman who disappeared from his school on June 4, 2010, is taking advantage of Aaron's Law, in order to finally hear testimony from Terri Moulton Horman, Kyron's sometime step parent, concerning why she will not give Kyron back to his natural parents. Instead of stepping forward in this moment of judicial history, Terri balked. She wants an an abatement for two years! But she was pretty quiet about the whole affair until July 24, when she learned that her biological son, James Moulton, was going to be deposed. THEN, she wanted a hearing......to move the court that he not testify! What? We get to pick and choose which witnesses testify in court? Someone who saw, heard, or knows something about the matter at hand cannot be subpoenaed because we don't want them to be subpoenaed? Waaaaaaaa! Is poor Terri gonna cwy?
Terri Horman should really both be proud that her fifteen minutes of fame involves the first case tried in court via a brand new law. This is really an important case that will set a precedent for future cases. Neither she, nor her son, James, should back away from court if they have nothing to hide. Desiree's attorney, Eldon Rosenthal, filed an answer to Terri's request for a two year abatement today. Kyron has already been missing for two years. Hopefully, the judge will only adjust the schedule to assure that Terri Horman will not have to be in family court for her pending divorce at the same time she is telling Desiree why she has not returned Kyron.
