~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1. Committed welfare fraud in Washington in 2009 and 2010. Claimed Ava was living with him and collected benefits for her. I have confirmed this. (She has always lived with me, and she and I had been living in Missouri since 2008.)
2. Perjury: Lied to a court in King County, WA in the summer of 2010. Ava and I were in Washington for a short visit because his parents were visiting from overseas. I had agreed to bring Ava for a visit before our move (from Missouri) to Pennsylvania. The day we were to leave, he grabbed Ava and ran out the door with her. We missed our flight. He took her to a lawyer's office. They went to the courthouse in downtown Seattle and obtained an ex parte order that prevented me from removing Ava "from the home". He had told his lawyer and the judge that Ava and I lived with him in Washington. He came back with officers who served me the papers. It was Friday evening by this time, so Ava and I stayed in a hotel for the weekend, and hired an attorney on Monday. She, Ava and I went to the judge and had the order quashed. Both the judge and Floyd's attorney were quite displeased with him. We purchased new flights and flew home the next day to Pennsylvania.
3. Perjury: Filed a divorce/custody case in WA state. Then, without having that case dismissed, he filed one in Missouri. In the Missouri case, he contradicted what he attested in the WA ex parte case by attesting, “Respondent is and has been a resident of the State of Missouri for at least ninety days immediately preceding the filing of this petition.”
Also, in the MO case, he attested that he had no knowledge of any other pending divorce case.
4. Perjury: Filed a custody case in the state of Missouri. Lied to his lawyer and the court by giving them a false address for me and for himself. He provided (in all the documents) my address as being one that actually belonged to a motel in Pennsylvania. This was so I would not receive any mail associated with the case (such as from his attorney).
5. Fraudulent service of process: Flew a friend from Seattle to Pennsylvania while he (Floyd) was in PA for an agreed-upon visit with Ava (supervised by me). Took that friend to a notary and had him sign the service of process affidavit saying he (the friend) had served me the Missouri court case papers. I was absolutely never served. Floyd was friendly during the whole visit, and I never suspected a thing. (I have since obtained the boarding passes for this friend.)
6. Colluded (in Oct. 2010) with the co-owner of a motel in Pennsylvania (the one where he was staying in October of 2010 during the visit) to commit mail fraud. This was the motel which was listed (by Floyd) as my personal street address in the MO court papers. He told this woman that she would be helping to rescue his child from a bad situation if she held onto all mail that arrived for me (rather than return it to sender). She did hold onto it. (I met her months later. She kicked me out of her motel as soon as I told her my name. She then immediately returned----to senders----all the mail in my name that she had been holding. Floyd's lawyer testified to this in court in Jan. 2011.)
7. Parental abduction: In January of 2011, Floyd was granted (by default) full custody of Ava in the Missouri court case because I had been completely unaware of its existence and had not shown up in court. He then (same month) came to Pennsylvania in January for another agreed-upon visit. Oblivious to what to the scams he had been pulling behind my back, I agreed to one overnight visit unsupervised. He had been talking for months about moving to PA, and had even spoken of the places he had been checking into for employment. I had been successfully duped. I left him with her at the (same as before) motel one evening, and said I would be back as soon as I got off work the next afternoon. He absconded with her at 4am, telling her they were going on a visit to Minneapolis (why MN, I have no idea) and they flew to his home in Seattle. I found out when I called to tell him I was leaving work and would be picking her up. He, still acting friendly, said, "Don't freak out! There was a work emergency (he was unemployed) and I had to come back right away to work on a project. We'll only be here for 4 days." Naturally, I did freak out, and worked constantly on getting her back--it took 3 weeks, 4 lawyers and a lot of traveling. All three courts (in MO, PA and WA) agreed that I had not been served and that he had fraudulently absconded with her.
Note: I didn't find out about the Missouri decree until the next day (either that or the second day) when "Matt" discovered it online (after much searching)----we had been searching because Floyd had finally blurted out, on the phone, "I have full custody! There's nothing you can do!"
8. Filed a false police report: Filed a police report in Seattle, claiming that "Matt" (my bf) had texted him a death threat. Even after admitting to Matt (during a phone call) that it was untrue, he refused to drop the issue. He (Floyd) even told my Seattle attorney that the reason he was pushing it was because it was the only way he could make himself look like a victim. He did not say, "I'm the victim and I need to show it." he really did say, "It's the only way I can make myself look like a victim."
9. Filed a false police report: Shortly after my daughter was back at home in Pennsylvania, Floyd hired an attorney there and arranged a 24-hour visit. My attorney said we should go along with this to show the court that I was willing to work with the other parent. The agreed-upon arrangement was that Floyd would hand over his (Moroccan) passport to his attorney for the duration of the visit. A couple days before the visit was to take place (in PA), Floyd contacted his attorney to tell him that someone broke into his car and stole his passport, and that he had filed a police report to prove it. His attorney advised him that, without the passport, the visitation would not occur. The passport did miraculously appear before the visit. I believe there is something in his passport that shows his intention of internationally absconding with Ava, either from when he had abducted her or for the 24-hour visit. It seemed very odd to me that he needed that one 24-hour visit with her so quickly after we got her back.....so badly needed it that he hired an attorney and flew across the country to spend one night with her. He had just had her for 3 weeks--it just didn't make sense.
