Thread: Private Investigator Hard at Work (Success Story)

  1. #41
    This story is another example as to why I would like to become a full-time investigator. Helping families is a beautiful thing. This investigator obviously had great networking skills and a lot of experience, two things I will continue to work on throughout my career.

    Thumbs up

    Chanelle,

    That was a great story. I think I remember seeing that episode. It remind me of a true life story about a husband that took his wife and child on vacation to the foreign country in which he is from. He didn't tell the wife that they were not going to return to the US. In his country the man gets custody of the children if they divorce. She started to get people to help her escape back to th US with her child which took several years. The movie is called NOT Without My Daughter. It was (4 thumbs up).

    Dragos, I think you had a great question. I'd love to know the strategies he/she used to track the father down; internet, interviews, survellience?? That kind of information would be extremely helpful to all new comers!! Does anyone know?? Diane

    This story aired tonight on Dateline/NBC 7:00p.m. Eastern time. A middle-aged women living in MA, a Harvard grad and MIT grad married a childhood friend. Both were from influential families, they planned to live in MA. They had two children, a boy and a girl.

    A couple of years after the marriage, the husband (Nuri) had an affair, which let to the wife filing for a divorce. Before she could file her motion in the courts, her husband took the children out of the country while on his normal visitation.

    The children, approx age 6 and 7 were taken by their father to Egypt. After searching and coming up empty, the wife hired a private investigator, which located the husband and the two children in Egypt. The husband had demanded a TOP ransom amount for the return of the children.

    Within several months, the father took the children again, to another country "Cuba". The private investigator was successful in getting pictures of the children for the mother who had not seen her children in almost 2 years.

    It was stated in the story, that the investigator knew a friend of Fidel Castro, and was able to get a message to him. Fidel Castro agreed to assist the mother, apparently he was upset because this man used his country to hide his children. Later, the authorities located the boat where Nuri was living with the 2 children and entered on board. They simply questioned his Visa and took him with the authorities. The children did not witness the event, however the mother moved in and was immediately reacquainted with her children.

    The investigator was the crucial connection point in this horrific story. He was instrumental in conducting key surveillance of the intricate movements of this international kidnapping.

    Kudos!! goes out to this investigator. This job was well done, as he is "well connected."

    I am pleased to hear a success story about the discovery of the kids. I was considering a PI job in locating missing or kidnapped children (or adults).

    However, in response to Hugh I would say the following: most fathers love their children. So it is understandable that they would want to run off with them at the end of a marriage. Not all fathers who do so are a danger to their kids.

    However, "understandable" does not justify the act, since there is the mother who also has a right to be with the kids.
    But because it can be misguided love on the part of SOME fathers, it does not necessarily make them a threat to their kids.
    Nevertheless, the rights of a mother and the danger that does exist in some cases (from a father to his kids or a mother to hers) necessitates the need for PIs to locate missing persons.
