They were found on January 3, 2016. On March 17, 2016 the judge ordered for them to be sent back to Kansas. After our dad has refused and delayed many orders, we finally have trial set at the end of April 2018 to have the abuse petition heard.Brittanyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15225974042862247110noreply@blogger.comBlogger86125tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5855554040432727293.post-31127854263685707082018-04-03T12:47:00.001-06:002018-04-03T12:47:55.685-06:00The Beginning of the End <div style="text-align: left;">
We have FINALLY reached the beginning of the end. For those supporters who are still out there, it is high time for another update on the Wolferts Sisters case.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
I drove to Kansas and rescued Sydney in September (who is now almost 19 years old). She is thriving in the presence of loving family and friends who she has been kept from for so long. Syd is an intelligent, beautiful, strong woman and while my heart aches for the years we were kept apart in our youth, I am blessed to be with her now in her young adult years. </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
The legal process for our sweet youngest sister Dani (who is 17 now) is still ongoing. My petition of abuse is finally being heard. Trial will be held at the end of this month. This is the moment we have prepared and waited for, for 4 long years--to have our voices heard in front of a judge. </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
The time is now. We need your prayers! We know that God is on our side. We have trusted in His timing our entire lives through seemingly endless pain and separation. We have refused to sink. Now it's time for a new chapter to unfold. </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">

On Twitter, Instagram, and other channels we will also use the tag #WolfertsSisters so that history on our story can be revisited. Thank you, thank you for your numberless prayers and thoughts. We have felt them!</div>

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">*Important announcement at the end of this post.*</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #1d2129; line-height: 19.32px; margin-bottom: 6px; margin-top: 6px;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">I have the deepest respect and love for the amazing life that Ellie Wiesel lived. He passed away today at the age of 87. For those of you who don't recognize his name, this man not only survived the absolute terror of the Nazi camps but then dedicated his whole life to making sure that the world would never forget. I will never forget his legacy.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #1d2129; line-height: 19.32px; margin-bottom: 6px; margin-top: 6px;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">It was both intriguing and shocking to me that Ellie had to spend so much time convincing others of what was going on. Even while his friends, family and neighbors were being rounded up into very small communities and started being put onto trains, nobody wanted to believe that they were being sent to labor camps where they would be exterminated. They wanted to believe what they were being told by the Nazi soldiers--that they were going to a less crowded and wonderful new place to live. He begged and pleaded many times with his friends but they didn't want to believe that things could be so awful...</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #1d2129; line-height: 19.32px; margin-bottom: 6px; margin-top: 6px;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">It is absolutely appalling to me that even today, there are many who do not believe that the Holocaust ever happened. Many times, I've thought about why this could be and it is apparent to me that those people do not want to believe that something SO horrific took place in our history--very similarly to how Ellie's Jewish community didn't believe him as he begged them not to step foot on the trains which led them to their deaths.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #1d2129; line-height: 19.32px; margin-bottom: 6px; margin-top: 6px;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">The reason why I have pondered this topic so much is largely because of what I've been through. I have seen many abused children receive responses of disbelief from outside adults and peers when they try to speak out about what is happening to them. When I first publicly announced that my father abused me and my sisters (to shed light on the truth due to the other theories floating around of why they ran), there was so much controversy, confusion and even disbelief--even coming even from those who had known us since we were young children. It was like people did not want to believe that a member of their family, community and/or church could ever be abusive children--because that thought would be too horrific and would change the way they viewed that person.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #1d2129; line-height: 19.32px; margin-bottom: 6px; margin-top: 6px;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">One of the most difficult challenges in this case is rallying support from those who's fears are blocking their knowledge of the truth. If you are following this page because of a similar experience in your life, you know EXACTLY what I'm talking about.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #1d2129; line-height: 19.32px; margin-bottom: 6px; margin-top: 6px;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Sydney and Dani weren't ever heard, and now they've been with our father for almost 4 months with no contact. 107 days of nothing except for what they said to the GAL on court record: that since being picked up from Slate Canyon, they've been extremely roughed up, traumatized, and STILL want the truth to be heard. They've been put in a program that harms children and have not been allowed to contact us. They have no idea how hard we are fighting, or all of the support they have online.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #1d2129; line-height: 19.32px; margin-bottom: 6px; margin-top: 6px;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">I believe the public eye has been extremely important, because it has forged a path of transparency on what has been going on in the case, which is something we never had before 2014. However, due to my current criminal case this will be my last post for a little while. Both this blog and my Facebook page are being handed over to a group of supporters, where regular updates will be shared from our newly merged page for Sydney and Dani.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #1d2129; line-height: 19.32px; margin-bottom: 6px; margin-top: 6px;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">I love you all. My prayers are with you and each of your individual trials. I am so grateful for all of you who have chosen to "like" my Facebook page, follow this blog and proudly show your support for my sisters, these two brave young women who have tried and tried to speak out. Keep their story alive by continuing to participate. Thank you. -</span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; line-height: 19.32px;">Brittany</span></div>

<span data-offset-key="ak4jo-0-0"><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">SYDNEY & DANI SPEAK FOR THE FIRST TIME.</span></span><br />
<span data-offset-key="ak4jo-0-0"><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: x-small;">[Sorry in advance for the funny spacing.]</span></span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">I am going to write a very brief summary of what took place during the May 4th & 5th phone hearings. There have been a lot of things happening over the past month & as soon as I prepare an update, it seems to be overtaken by a new order. I have attached the public audio files of the hearings, which can be found on Utah Family Law TV's YouTube channel. I highly recommend reviewing these audio files if you have ANY question of what went on in the hearings, however if you don't have time then please read the short summary below:</span></div>

<div class="_1mf _1mj" data-offset-key="e81rl-0-0" style="direction: ltr; position: relative;">
<span data-offset-key="e81rl-0-0"><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Since it's been a little while--remember that on April 13th Judge Johnson gave my father ONE WEEK to have my sisters placed in a neutral home in Kansas, that the girls should be immediately taken out of the controversial Pruter program, and that they needed an evaluation done by an agreed-upon, legitimate therapist.</span></span></div>
</div>
<div class="" data-block="true" data-editor="51tph" data-offset-key="94p3q-0-0" style="background-color: white; color: #1d2129; line-height: 18px; white-space: pre-wrap;">

<div class="_1mf _1mj" data-offset-key="8oidu-0-0" style="direction: ltr; position: relative;">
<span data-offset-key="8oidu-0-0"><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Essentially, on May 4th the Court was presented with the information that my mom had neither seen nor heard from Sydney and Dani, despite many attempted supervised phone calls since April 13th. The GAL's document was also given to the court, where she detailed a highly worrisome trail of my father continually blocking her from speaking to her clients, etc. since April 13th. Judge Johnson did not request that Sydney and Dani be removed from his home as she had previously ordered, but she did arrange a time for my sisters to go to their bishop's home that night to have a phone call with their GAL (they would then go back to our dad's home, after speaking to her and knowing it was going to be presented in court and Brian was going to hear it all). It was determined that there would be a hearing the next morning, where the GAL would present what Sydney and Dani said.</span></span></div>
</div>
<div class="" data-block="true" data-editor="51tph" data-offset-key="60qeu-0-0" style="background-color: white; color: #1d2129; line-height: 18px; white-space: pre-wrap;">

<div class="_1mf _1mj" data-offset-key="d3adv-0-0" style="direction: ltr; position: relative;">
<span data-offset-key="d3adv-0-0"><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">On May 5th, the GAL presented what my sisters said, and it greatly concerns me. First of all, they stated multiple times that they wanted to say more, but were afraid of the "negative repercussions". They felt like they couldn't say their truth of how things were going. They said that they had been extremely "roughed up" and "traumatized" when they were taken from Slate Canyon. They said they wanted the "truth to come out" but repeatedly talked about the repercussions if they remained in Brian's home. They said that they didn't want to hurt anyone and wanted our dad and Angie to know they loved them, however they wanted to be taken out of his home NOW. They begged for an evaluation to be done, to prove that they aren't lying (which means many adults must be telling them they're liars). </span></span></div>
<div class="_1mf _1mj" data-offset-key="d3adv-0-0" style="direction: ltr; position: relative;">
<span data-offset-key="d3adv-0-0"><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div class="_1mf _1mj" data-offset-key="d3adv-0-0" style="direction: ltr; position: relative;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><span data-offset-key="d3adv-0-0">They said they also loved me and our mom very much. </span>Sydney told the GAL that the last order that Brian showed her was the 90-day Restraining Order, which hasn't been in affect for months. Sydney had been told (and still believed) that she wasn't allowed to have any contact with her mom or older sister. Syd and Dani believed that they were alone in dealing with this nightmare, and they had no clue that anyone was fighting for them. They are most likely never alone and watched constantly. They even have a counselor at school, who is not a school counselor. They have zero access to the outside world--the only site they can be on is the school website. (In other cases where children are put in this program, the therapists or parents instruct the school that they are not allowed to be on the internet and the school aids in the restriction.)</span></div>
<div class="_1mf _1mj" data-offset-key="d3adv-0-0" style="direction: ltr; position: relative;">
<span data-offset-key="d3adv-0-0"><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div class="_1mf _1mj" data-offset-key="d3adv-0-0" style="direction: ltr; position: relative;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><span data-offset-key="d3adv-0-0">Jarom Bishop (our father's attorney) made one argument on May 5th: that it is Brian's "constitutional rights" to have Sydney and Dani not be placed (even temporarily) in another home while they're evaluated. </span>Going against the previous order, Judge Johnson ruled that Syd and Dani will still be evaluated, but they will not leave his home.</span></div>
<div class="_1mf _1mj" data-offset-key="d3adv-0-0" style="direction: ltr; position: relative;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="_1mf _1mj" data-offset-key="d3adv-0-0" style="direction: ltr; position: relative;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">It gets more horrific: Last week, Jarom Bishop filed to remove the GAL. He and my father succeeded. The only court authority that had met with my sisters, who they trusted, is no longer able to protect them. My father has claimed since the first few hearings that the GAL was biased. This is so far from the truth! He wanted her off of the case because Sydney and Dani's desires do not coincide with his. They are the GAL's clients, and she was doing her job in giving them a voice in court.</span></div>
<div class="_1mf _1mj" data-offset-key="d3adv-0-0" style="direction: ltr; position: relative;">
<span data-offset-key="d3adv-0-0"><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div class="_1mf _1mj" data-offset-key="d3adv-0-0" style="direction: ltr; position: relative;">
<span data-offset-key="d3adv-0-0"><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">My heart is breaking and my head is sorely confused. I have never seen a judge not only do nothing when an order is violated on all accounts, but go back on the order in favor of the parent who committed the violations. Sydney and Dani are now out of school in Topeka, and with our abuser 24/7. We have still heard nothing from them. They were not allowed to call their mother on Mother's Day. I doubt we will be able to wish Sydney a happy birthday in three days. </span></span></div>
<div class="_1mf _1mj" data-offset-key="d3adv-0-0" style="direction: ltr; position: relative;">
<span data-offset-key="d3adv-0-0"><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div class="_1mf _1mj" data-offset-key="d3adv-0-0" style="direction: ltr; position: relative;">
<span data-offset-key="d3adv-0-0"><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">I'm disappointed in our legal system and the major lack of hearing children's voices. Yes, it's true that the 4th District Court is more of a divorce court and doesn't typically hear the children's side as much as the Juvenile Court--but we fought and fought in Juvenile, and look what happened. Judge Bartholomew sent them back, without letting them speak or hearing the abuse petition that I've tried to have heard in court since June 2014! The 4th District Court needs to do something before these girls--my sisters--are irreparably harmed.</span></span></div>

<span data-offset-key="d3adv-0-0"><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">All of this may be heavy for you to read and soak in. I commend those of you who cared enough to make it to the end. I wish that we had better news to offer. We are not giving up hope and many supporters are sacrificing their lives along with us to search for what can be done. I'm always praying for a better outcome. I know beyond a doubt that Sydney and Dani's case will one day be a great example of how the system fails children. We must continue to pray and work towards a better tomorrow for them!</span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I'm appalled and heartbroken. A lot has happened since my last post. Please read on. (This post is taken from my <a href="http://facebook.com/WolfertsSisters">Facebook page.</a>)</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #141823; line-height: 19.32px; margin-bottom: 6px;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #141823; line-height: 19.32px; margin-bottom: 6px; margin-top: 6px;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">COURT ORDER APRIL 13TH:</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #141823; line-height: 19.32px; margin-bottom: 6px; margin-top: 6px;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I'd like to back up for just a second. There was a TRO signed by the 4th District Court at the end of March, a short time after the Juvenile Court ordered them to Kansas. In this TRO, my father had asked for no contact for 90 days between my mom, me and any other family here in Utah. It had also asked for them to be placed in a reunification program or an "educational process" that is extremely controversial; the Pruter program that we've talked about before. This is what the following hearing was about:</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #141823; line-height: 19.32px; margin-bottom: 6px; margin-top: 6px;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">In court on Wednesday the 13th, the 4th District Court dismissed the TRO that was previously signed, and ordered the girls to immediately be placed in the care of a different home and immediately be taken out of the Dorcy Pruter program. The TRO was dismissed on the grounds that the court was not given proper information by my father when it was filed (information such as the fact that he has a recent DCFS finding of abuse). Additionally, my father did not follow the plan that was meant to be followed through Utah and Kansas DCFS with the determination in the ICJ case in Juvenile Court and this was also noted.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #141823; line-height: 19.32px; margin-bottom: 6px; margin-top: 6px;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">As I stated before, the court ordered that Sydney and Dani be immediately removed from our father's unsupervised home and placed with a neutral home that has been background checked. The court also ordered that the girls should be removed from this controversial program right away and meet with an agreed upon, legitimate therapist in order to determine if they even need alienation therapy (which should have happened in the beginning). It was ordered that my mom and I should have supervised supervision/phone calls. I was grateful for this order because it showed that the court was looking out for the best interests of the children.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #141823; line-height: 19.32px; margin-bottom: 6px; margin-top: 6px;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #141823; line-height: 19.32px; margin-bottom: 6px; margin-top: 6px;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">WHAT'S HAPPENED SINCE:</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #141823; line-height: 19.32px; margin-bottom: 6px; margin-top: 6px;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Complete and total silence on our end. We haven't heard one word from my sisters, and my dad is fighting extremely hard to keep it that way. I'm not trying to talk badly about him; the facts speak for themselves:</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #141823; line-height: 19.32px; margin-bottom: 6px; margin-top: 6px;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">There was a supervised phone call organized last week for my mom to talk to Syd and Dani, in which my dad's attorney filed a motion to intervene and wouldn't allow it.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #141823; line-height: 19.32px; margin-bottom: 6px; margin-top: 6px;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">My dad is in contempt of court. He has kept them in the Pruter program, refuses to allow the GAL access to my sisters, won't let us talked to them supervised, and has filed a motion to remove the GAL.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #141823; line-height: 19.32px; margin-bottom: 6px; margin-top: 6px;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Additionally, Sydney and Dani had left certain belongings at Slate Canyon which they specifically informed the workers they wanted to give to my mom. Under no circumstances did they want these items to go to my dad (they included sensitive journal entries). My dad's attorney picked them up and they are in his possession.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #141823; display: inline; line-height: 19.32px; margin-top: 6px;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Why are children treated as possessions, and not people?? Sydney and Dani are being silenced by their abuser right now. They are 15 and nearly 17. Sometimes I cannot believe how much their voices have been stripped.</span></div>

I invite you to follow my other blog if you so desire. Most of what I write here is factual, including hard evidence and testimony of our father's abuse <i>that has never been heard in court</i>. My other blog has been (and will continue to be) a place where I collect things that I appreciate and value: family, faith, fitness, lifestyle and inspiration. Sometimes I feel prompted or inclined to write about my family's plight, and yesterday was one of those times:</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br style="background-color: white; color: #444444; line-height: 18.48px;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #444444; line-height: 18.48px;">To tell you the truth, I stopped writing here because of some very harsh judgments and internet bullying. It was getting so horrible that anytime I posted something, I was ridiculed and jeered at by my dad and his supporters. I was also simultaneously being physically stalked and cyber-stalked by some of his supporters to the point where I hated going outside because I knew someone was parked watching me and keeping tabs on our cars. It was a difficult time, to say the least... but I'm back and here to stay.</span><br style="background-color: white; color: #444444; line-height: 18.48px;" /><br style="background-color: white; color: #444444; line-height: 18.48px;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #444444; line-height: 18.48px;">It's a lot of work to keep up on my </span><a href="http://www.wolfertssisters.blogspot.com/" style="background-color: white; color: #3d85c6; line-height: 18.48px; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank">sister's blog</a><span style="background-color: white; color: #444444; line-height: 18.48px;">, </span><a href="http://www.facebook.com/WolfertsSisters" style="background-color: white; color: #3d85c6; line-height: 18.48px; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank">Facebook page</a><span style="background-color: white; color: #444444; line-height: 18.48px;">, and also run my own social media platforms while working multiple jobs, but I need to start focusing on my future. My future involves advocating for children's voices in the legal system, continuing to pursue a career in modeling and fitness, focusing on my husband and family, building my art business, and so much more. And much of my future starts here, with this blog. Today I'm writing about something you all know about. Except this time, I'm writing completely from my emotional aspect instead of mostly factual. I'm writing from a point of view that is raw, exposed, and real.</span><br style="background-color: white; color: #444444; line-height: 18.48px;" /><br style="background-color: white; color: #444444; line-height: 18.48px;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #444444; line-height: 18.48px;">I don't know where to begin. Life has been insane, intense and incredible all at once. In 2015, the Dr. Phil show aired, I started my teaching and art business, married the love of my life, and took a few months off to breathe. It seemed that there was nothing more I could do legally except prepare and wait. I began to think that Sydney and Dani wouldn't be coming back until they were eighteen. There were still a few people set on stalking and accusing me (the Orem Police Dept. storming my wedding, for example), but for the most part life began to feel more normal than I'd ever expected it could. </span><br style="background-color: white; color: #444444; line-height: 18.48px;" /><br style="background-color: white; color: #444444; line-height: 18.48px;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #444444; line-height: 18.48px;">The third day of 2016 began very early and alarming, as my husband and I awoke to a call at 3 A.M. informing us that my sisters and mom had been found. A family member of someone they were staying with had made a call to the police. They ended up being right here in a neighboring city, Pleasant Grove. We sat outside the Orem Police Dept. where they were all being held, after having been mocked by the detective on the case in a very unprofessional and horrible way. He told me there was "no way" he would allow me to see them because "I could have visited them whenever I wanted to". He smirked at me when I told him DCFS needed to be involved, and the girls should not be interrogated (and whatever else he was doing) without an attorney or case worker present. So there we were, sitting in our car for hours outside the building where my mom and sisters were being detained. I called DCFS at about 5 A.M. to make sure they were aware of the situation. The sun rose while we waited, while my heart ached so bad wondering if they were O.K. and how they were being treated. It was time to keep fighting for my sisters.</span><br style="background-color: white; color: #444444; line-height: 18.48px;" /><br style="background-color: white; color: #444444; line-height: 18.48px;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #444444; line-height: 18.48px;">My husband is Diabetic and we needed to go somewhere to grab food. As we ate, we received a call from the Spanish Fork Prison. It was my mom. It had been so long since I had heard her voice, I didn't recognize it at first. Then the tears came flooding down my face as I realized it was her. I cried in happiness and relief because she was back and alive. I also cried because of the injustices she was suffering. She was in prison, </span><i style="background-color: white; color: #444444; line-height: 18.48px;">prison </i><span style="background-color: white; color: #444444; line-height: 18.48px;">because she chose to protect her daughters (I now know that she chose to meet up with them after a month when they contacted her in August 2014). Through the salty tears and stinging eyes, I heard her tell me that she loved me and that we could visit her. I turned to my husband and said in disbelief, "I get to see my mom. Today." I will never forget that moment.</span><br style="background-color: white; color: #444444; line-height: 18.48px;" /><br style="background-color: white; color: #444444; line-height: 18.48px;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #444444; line-height: 18.48px;">So much happened in those first 24 hours. I still look back on it and can't believe it's not a crazy dream. Since then, we were able to bail my mom out and I was able to visit my sisters for the first time. They were at Slate Canyon, a juvenile prison, for nearly 90 days. It took nearly a month to set up our visitation, but we were able to see them multiple times during their stay and I'm grateful for that. There is much that happened between January and March, but it is painful to discuss. My sisters and I rode on a roller coaster of hope followed by crushing blows. Every time it seemed things were </span><i style="background-color: white; color: #444444; line-height: 18.48px;">finally </i><span style="background-color: white; color: #444444; line-height: 18.48px;">going right, the judge would make an order to bypass their protection. For example, on March 17th DCFS found abuse (for the second time) against our father. On March 18th, after promising my sisters repeatedly to let them speak to him in court, the judge simply wrote an order sending them back to Kansas. Our dad placed them in a program that harms children until they think and act a desired way (do some research on the Dorcy Pruter program if you're interested.) Sydney and Dani have been missing for over two weeks and in the hands of my dad and these people, and my mom and I have been utterly crushed by it.</span><br style="background-color: white; color: #444444; line-height: 18.48px;" /><br style="background-color: white; color: #444444; line-height: 18.48px;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #444444; line-height: 18.48px;">There are many forms of trials. We all go through life dealing with and learning from consequences for our own decisions, and some of us suffer deeply due to other's decisions. My sisters and I have had to live through </span><i style="background-color: white; color: #444444; line-height: 18.48px;">immense </i><span style="background-color: white; color: #444444; line-height: 18.48px;">amounts of trials and pain due to someone else's decision. The thing that gets us through the most is our faith in Jesus Christ and the love and faith that our mother has instilled in us since we were very young. Sydney, Dani and I have deep testimonies rooted in the gospel of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints. They are extremely spiritually, emotionally and mentally mature for their ages, and I look up to them so much.</span><br style="background-color: white; color: #444444; line-height: 18.48px;" /><br style="background-color: white; color: #444444; line-height: 18.48px;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #444444; line-height: 18.48px;">I am so grateful for each one of you.

This was ordered by the same judge who failed to get us a hearing to discuss our abuse petition in 2014, which caused my sisters to run in the first place. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">This is the man that the judge went out of his way to send my sisters to without giving them or me a chance to testify about his abuse. </span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">This post contains mature material and I only advise adults 18 and older to continue. </span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">The following list contains things my dad has admitted to or been found by authorities to have done up to 2011. I wrote about my sisters and I in third person, in continuation with the direct quotes from therapists. I apologize for the length of this list. It's so long, yet there is so much more that could have been added. (Wouldn't it be nice if </span><u style="font-family: verdana, sans-serif;">none</u><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"> of these applied instead of </span><u style="font-family: verdana, sans-serif;">ALL</u><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"> </span><i style="font-family: verdana, sans-serif;">of them applying to my dad</i><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">.) </span><br />

<li><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Was also seen by psychosexual therapist Dr. Ririe who stated "the nature of the <a href="https://www.scribd.com/doc/250574439/Actual-Custody-Evaluation-From-2010-Redacted2" target="_blank">potential risk to [Brian's] children being very well emphasized</a> to all of the parties involved, the risk would be considered much lower for his daughters in this situation. Part of this will be as the result of the increased level of vigilance he and others will engage in as well as the fact that his daughters have been well educated and informed on how to potentially report and address any areas of discomfort and in fact have shown a willingness to do so..."</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Has never wanted his daughters to speak to any judge, filing multiple times to deny them testifying about his abuse.</span></li>

This could actually kill a baby that young!)</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Told DCFS that <a href="https://www.scribd.com/doc/307381229/2005-02-Taylor-Allred-12-Page-Activity-Report-Detailed-Sep-2004-to-Feb-2005-Redacted" target="_blank">he has difficulties with himself, emotional disturbances,</a> and felt "undeserving of love".</span></li>

<li><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Told DCFS the physical violence that happened happened before Brittany was born.

<li><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Told Facebook and Dr. Phil that Michelle "broke his nose".</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">In addition to the above list, on March 17th, 2016, DCFS found my dad to have been abusive to my sisters in his home!</span></li>
</ul>
<div>
<span style="color: lime; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">THIS LIST PROVES WHY MY SISTERS SHOULD NOT HAVE BEEN SENT BACK TO HIM.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">In addition to the above list of things he did before, my dad has fought <i>multiple times </i>to keep my sisters and me from speaking in court about his abuse. Can there be any doubt why a man like the one described above by therapists and investigators might wish his victims (including my sisters and I) to be unable to reveal his abuse??</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">This is who my sisters are afraid of. This is who <i>I'm</i> afraid of. I admit this hesitantly because I'm certain he probably gains satisfaction at my admission. This abuser and sexual deviant is who now has my sisters behind closed doors, secluded, isolated, alone--able to retaliate against them in any way he wants. And judging from the list above, and my memories of the abuse he often inflicted on all of us in his house, I am severely worried for my sisters. They are in mortal danger. </span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">My sisters have additional harrowing details of his abuse which they have so far been prevented by Juvenile Court Judge Bartholomew from presenting in court. My dad knows what he's done, and what they are capable of telling. Therefore, he seeks to silence them. As you can see, he has every reason to want to silence my sisters.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">It is hard to come to terms with the fact that my dad is unworthy of my esteem, as I value family as the most important thing in this life. But I also know that if someone abuses you--regardless of their position in your life--they fail to earn your respect, honor, and trust. My dad is my abuser. </span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">He and his supporters continue to abuse me verbally and emotionally all over social media, and they don't care about the welfare of my sisters.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">I beg you to <a href="https://www.gofundme.com/SaveWolfertsGirls" target="_blank">help me</a> with my exorbitant legal fees as I attempt to get the truth of his abuse to the proper authorities to protect my vulnerable sisters. The judge has tried to prevent it so far and has helped get my sisters into the custody of this deviant abuser. Please help me! Thank you so much for your continual support!</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Update:</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #141823; line-height: 19.32px; margin-bottom: 6px; margin-top: 6px;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Every single day, I have been stressing about the location and well-being of my sisters. The feelings of not knowing where they are for 18 months but knowing that my mom was probably with them and taking care of them VS. the feelings of not knowing where they are for 14 days but knowing that they are with people that are hurting them are extremely different. Here's 5 facts that we know as of this moment:</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #141823; line-height: 19.32px; margin-bottom: 6px; margin-top: 6px;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">1) The judge dismissed the petition altogether last week (there was supposed to be a hearing for it on April 18th). This takes away the chance of having the girls heard in court and seeking any kind of protection for them.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #141823; line-height: 19.32px; margin-bottom: 6px; margin-top: 6px;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">2) He also dismissed the proposed order from my dad, requesting to shut down the blog and having everyone on social media that is supporting the girls to stop or hand over their accounts, and requested for me to pay his attorney fees for making the order. (This is why I was absent for a while. It's also why the last four juvenile court documents have been removed. I didn't completely understand that even redacted, those are private/different from the public divorce case docs.)</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #141823; line-height: 19.32px; margin-bottom: 6px; margin-top: 6px;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">3) When the juvenile judge ordered my sisters back to Kansas, he mentioned that Kansas was to receive Sydney and Dani with a "plan" set in place. There is absolutely no plan. They were sent back quickly and with no oversight. <b>Nobody </b>knows where they are or what is being done to them, not even their GAL or Kansas DCFS (who was supposed to be watching over them). Information has been requested by them and multiple other parties, and my father refuses to respond.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #141823; line-height: 19.32px; margin-bottom: 6px; margin-top: 6px;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">4) The 4th district judge signed an order sending the girls to the reunification program a few days after they were transported from Slate Canyon by the program. In this order, created by my dad and his attorney, he did NOT include information about the recent findings of abuse against himself (as well as many other facts that needed to be included). This program is located in South Carolina.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #141823; line-height: 19.32px; margin-bottom: 6px; margin-top: 6px;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">5) This program is run by people like Dorcy Pruter without licenses and they use brainwashing & threat therapy tactics to force children to say what the paying parent wants. It's that simple and that harmful. I didn't even believe something like this existed until I began researching and seeing the many court cases that are suing for children committing suicide after this program, etc. They typically take the children to a hotel for the first 5 days and separate them, break them down, etc. Then move on to isolate them from the opposite parent and family for 90+ days (they keep adding 90 days if they aren't satisfied. One mother hasn't seen or heard of her children for 230 days and counting). There is much more info I could post about this, but for now please <a href="http://www.truth-out.org/speakout/item/35465-court-forces-young-wolferts-sisters-back-to-allegedly-abusive-father">read Hope Loudon's article</a> published on our case. It's very informative!</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #141823; display: inline; line-height: 19.32px; margin-top: 6px;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Thank you everyone for helping the <a href="http://www.facebook.com/WolfertsSisters">Facebook page</a> grow to 700 likes, and the blog views hit over 232,000! Please keep this story alive. We can't let Sydney and Dani fall through the cracks like so many other children. They need to be given safety and protection, now!</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">I just received word that Sydney and Dani are gone.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #141823; line-height: 19.32px; margin-bottom: 6px; margin-top: 6px;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">In last night's visit, they were very open about their thoughts on returning. They were both having a really hard time and talking about shutting down completely. They said things like, "Why are they making us go? Why would they force us? Why would they let people do this to us??" They pleaded for us to keep fighting for them. It was heartbreaking--I keep using this word because it is the only one that applies. To lift our spirits, the three of us decided to sing the hymns "Abide with Me; 'Tis Eventide" and "Nearer, My God, to Thee." Our voices echoed in synchronization and the room filled with the spirit. We all knew exactly when to harmonize with each other, as if we could read each others' minds. Sydney and Dani have the voices of angels. When we finished, there wasn't a dry eye in the room. Sydney said to me, "I really miss singing with you."</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #141823; line-height: 19.32px; margin-bottom: 6px; margin-top: 6px;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">The visit ended and we hugged them, telling them that it would somehow be okay. We parted and continued waving to them through the glass doors as long as possible before they disappeared from sight. The moment we were in the lobby I turned to hold my husband and just held him and silently cried, "I think this is the last time we're going to see them."</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #141823; line-height: 19.32px; margin-bottom: 6px; margin-top: 6px;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">This morning I awoke from a dream that they were planning to move Syd and Dani at 6 A.M. before anyone had a chance to hear of it. Through this horrible news, I feel blessed to know that Heavenly Father watches all things that happen. I feel that He was preparing me, though it is almost impossible to be prepared for such loss. We received word about an hour ago while preparing for tonight's visit that they were taken at 5:57 A.M. this morning from Slate Canyon. I spoke to someone at the scene who said the girls were extremely upset and not in a good state.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #141823; line-height: 19.32px; margin-bottom: 6px; margin-top: 6px;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">I am absolutely shocked, terrified and utterly disappointed. I think that even when the order was sent by the judge, we believed somehow it wouldn't happen, especially because of the recent DCFS abuse findings. My sisters are unprepared, unprotected and silenced by this order to send them back. The same tag we have used since they were found almost three months STILL applies: <a class="_58cn" data-ft="{"tn":"*N","type":104}" href="https://www.facebook.com/hashtag/letthemspeak?source=feed_text&story_id=1683404275260239" style="color: #3b5998; cursor: pointer; text-decoration: none;"><span aria-label="hashtag" class="_58cl" style="color: #627aad;">#</span><span class="_58cm">LetThemSpeak</span></a>! The fight is not over for their safety and protection.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #141823; line-height: 19.32px; margin-bottom: 6px; margin-top: 6px;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">To those who participated in the <a href="https://www.facebook.com/WolfertsSisters/?fref=nf">last Facebook post</a>: Thank you so much! As I read through each of your comments, they brought tears to my eyes. I am certain that Sydney and Dani will be overwhelmed with strength and support from them. In light of the recent news, we are not aware of where they are and where they are going. But as soon as we are updated, I will do everything in my power to pass the messages along.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #141823; line-height: 19.32px; margin-bottom: 6px; margin-top: 6px;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Please continue to share the blog so that we can keep finding those who are willing to donate and learn about Sydney and Dani's case. Thank you so much.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">On Friday Utah DCFS made a finding of abuse against both Brian and Michelle.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #141823; line-height: 19.32px; margin-bottom: 6px; margin-top: 6px;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Against Brian: "Emotional Abuse against the father based on the children’s disclosure of negative and critical comments about them and the mother and a harsh environment in the father’s home. Both children expressed that they did not want to return to the father’s home." This is the second finding of abuse by DCFS against Brian.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #141823; line-height: 19.32px; margin-bottom: 6px; margin-top: 6px;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Against Michelle: "Emotional Abuse against the mother because she encouraged/supported the children on the run for approximately 18 months despite a valid custody order granting the father custody of the children or seeking other legal alternatives to modify that order and/or protect the children which in effect was parental alienation" (for which DCFS has no criteria)</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #141823; line-height: 19.32px; margin-bottom: 6px; margin-top: 6px;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Brian also filed motions in court to prevent Sydney and Dani from testifying. It isn't surprising since DCFS found him to be abusive in the home. Ultimately DCFS made their finding of abuse but it was not without SIGNIFICANT challenges to give them a voice. They have yet to ever be heard in actual court.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #141823; line-height: 19.32px; margin-bottom: 6px; margin-top: 6px;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">The judge has ORDERED Syd and Dani to RETURN to the custody of their ABUSIVE FATHER despite the findings of abuse by DCFS. It was reported that Brian's parents "moved" to Kansas a week and a half before this ruling was made.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">So to all the fellow abusers reading this (and there are a number of you) that supported Brian, there you have it. You effectively fought to have those poor girls returned to their abuser. Was this what you wanted? For children to return to a home where they have been and will continue to be abused?</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #141823; line-height: 19.32px; margin-bottom: 6px; margin-top: 6px;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">For everyone else that supports the girls we invite you to continue to support. The support is still needed. Our work to ensure the girls well being, safety and security is still in the works and there are still legal proceedings to get through. You can still donate here if possible.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">There are laws in place that actually PROTECT abusers. The Interstate Compact Law is one of them. This law dictates the movement of "criminal runaways" which the girls ARE NOT. Under the letter of this law, abuse is simply ignored and the victims are returned like a piece of lost luggage to its "home" which is defined as the domicile of the custodial parent (in this case the abuser).</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #141823; line-height: 19.32px; margin-bottom: 6px; margin-top: 6px;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">You would expect that a state agency would step in and trump decisions that put children in harms way. The DCFS mission is "To keep children safe from abuse and neglect..." (Page 5 of the Utah State CAPTA plan). It is still possible that Sean Reyes the Utah State Attny General (email: agcppr@utah.gov) may take the high road and put a stop to this nonsense. It is the responsibility of DCFS and the Attorney General to "keep children safe".</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Brian's plans are to place the girls in a 'threat therapy' camp like here<a href="http://l.facebook.com/l.php?u=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.huffingtonpost.com%2Fhope-loudon%2Fcontroversial-forced-ther_b_8724060.html&h=4AQG2m98OAQHorke9xpVgox5ek6AKGXOiZGrllUWPHxAV4A&enc=AZOj2DMsgl5dCev-97qmk_KRkuwajNU21GvqKKHzdmJRxEb1qRABVAH2qTRV3hU6QuFXqtXwJ7-APJXu8Z_dDudhizxyYfVikEmRxhaHNucg-aazz5HoLZtCSXYtxFa47WjUg5czvBZP9YpEahVLjhv3I_eip9f_Lu7TRKEN-UfefEsX86-4aZbYJFU09tbhRmRivPwoM2ERtjHD9qtuo3Mv&s=1" rel="nofollow" style="color: #3b5998; cursor: pointer; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank">http://www.huffingtonpost.com/…/controversial-forced-ther_b…</a> or here<a href="http://l.facebook.com/l.php?u=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.savingdamon.com%2Fdeprogramming-camps.html&h=sAQHWDVyAAQGaX1-5azzIBUXI--b7oVrsGDYkWglKkZJQCg&enc=AZN9l2hkwAhZo6HfpXzCrW8P1PRt0MIrAlBLvneJn54pGfVXXc5GuQ8RqNy2CU1tdl4or9zUu8bim6-DFEFsiLTG3M6QWzORNqCIP26VjavNBe78Sp0ivhWqdVchxX1moSnqmCEEfLoHOjHadBvfgJVUJ0CRAe-lisP3khC5zuL5uDdhpD3eJfvY1HpRo9czLxrnaDJxAjt3ZKH7_ikLUWV-&s=1" rel="nofollow" style="color: #3b5998; cursor: pointer; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank">http://www.savingdamon.com/deprogramming-camps.html</a><br />These people make determinations for their "therapy" without ever even interviewing them.

They were not allowed to speak in court at that time, either. Prior to the recent ruling from March 18th to send my sisters back to their abuser they were asked in court to prepare statements they could share with the court but they were denied that opportunity. My dad filed a motion to prevent them from testifying, and the judge seemed to side with my dad and not allow my sisters to speak.</span><br />
<div>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">We were able to visit Sydney and Dani over the weekend, and they are absolutely <i>crushed </i>after hearing of the order later on Friday. While sobbing, they made comments such as, "If I go back, I will never be the same again" and "If I go back, I will never have faith in the system again". They expressed how hopeful they had felt on Friday morning that there was a system set in place to protect children and listen to them, and how they now feel that they will never be heard.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Our hearts are completely breaking over this. We ask that you join in praying for my sisters and sharing their story that has yet to be heard.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">While hearings took place every week regarding my sisters' time in detention and the status of the requisition process, service had been attempted multiple times on our father in order to set a date in court for the petition to finally be heard. His attorney didn't accept service and every time a process server went to Brian's doorstep, no one would come to the door. After weeks of attempting service, he was approached with the paperwork while leaving the house over a weekend. It was reported verbally that after Angie threw the papers back at the process server, immediately called the police and reported that she was "accosted with paperwork" when she was simply served by means of residential service. </span></div>
<div style="background-color: white;">
<br /></div>
<div style="background-color: white;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Throughout the time that he adamantly avoided the petition (keep in mind that he had seen this document before and knew what we had written inside), our father continued to post online that he "wanted the girls to have a voice" and later that they "had their chance to be heard". Unfortunately, this could not be further from the truth. Not only was he avoiding service to postpone the day for them to speak in court, but he was <a href="https://www.scribd.com/doc/305549291/Motion-in-Limine-3-March-2016">filing motions</a> in attempts to keep my sisters from testifying at all. </span></div>
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Now there is an order to return my sisters to him in Kansas, and Sydney and Dani STILL have not had a chance to be heard in court.</span><br />

Thank you all for your patience throughout this process, and all of your support along the way. I truly cannot express my love and gratitude for every one of you (Sydney and Dani feel the same).</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">I opened a criminal case on January 28, 2016 against our father Brian Wolferts. As I have spent nearly two years attempting to have our evidence heard in court without success, I decided to take the evidence I had to the police department where we lived with him in Pleasant Grove from 2010-2013. The reason I hadn't done this before is the same reason I did not start filing the day I moved out in May of 2013--Sydney and Dani were in his custody, and he had complete access to punish them for ANYTHING that was uttered against him. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">In the submitted report, I detailed everything that I had witnessed while living in his home. I also included some statements made to me by Sydney and Dani, including the lewdness that was taking place (after I moved out in 2013 he began undressing after our stepmom Angie left for work and forcing them to talk with him while naked), but I also acknowledged that I hadn't seen those things firsthand and asked them to interview Sydney and Dani for their experiences. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">This document was received in response to the filing. A</span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"> disturbing insight from this report is the fact that they did NOT interview Sydney and Dani for this report. </span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">I was informed over the phone that "usually the witnesses are interviewed as part of the process, however in this case they included Sydney and Dani's CJC interview as the interview for the report". Normal protocol seems to have been disregarded and they</span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"> used an interview that took place the week my sisters were found, after being held under duress by the Orem Police Department and threatened to immediately be sent back to Kansas. Sydney and Dani were terrified, exhausted and silent in this interview--and understandably so.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Another disturbing fact is that they did not consider our father stripping naked and purposefully exposing his genitals to them as "lewdness". It clearly states in <a href="http://le.utah.gov/xcode/Title76/Chapter9/76-9-S702.5.html">Utah Code 76-9-702.5</a> that this is the very definition of "lewdness involving a child". </span><br />
<table style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: sans-serif; font-size: 12.96px; line-height: 18.144px; width: 100%px;"><tbody>
<tr><td style="font-size: 12.96px; line-height: 18.144px; vertical-align: text-top;"><br /></td><td style="font-size: 12.96px; line-height: 18.144px; width: 1006px;"><table style="width: 100%px;"></table>
</td></tr>
</tbody></table>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">There is mention that the events that took place in our father's home are "disturbing", that Sydney and Dani made "non-specific CJC disclosures that living with their dad would not be 'safe'," and other comments regarding the situation. However i</span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">n conclusion, the document states: "In short, there is a lot of smoke, but no fire." This cuts me to the core, as this says to all abused children: "Unless you are raped, burned, bruised or dead, no one will protect you from those who are hurting you."</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">This is the first time it has been made publicly known that there are recordings. I waited to release this information until my sisters were back and in imminent danger of being returned to my father. My intention has never been to destroy my father, but rather to bring to light the truth of why my sisters ran and what they are enduring. This knowledge is absolutely crucial in understanding why they are so terrified to go back to him. I will continue to defend my sisters until they are safe.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">After my dad gained custody in May 2010 and continued to relentlessly emotionally drain and abuse us, I knew that our sufferings would never be understood without proper evidence. I'm hopeful that the many, many hours of recordings I took will help show the court the extensive amounts of time that my dad constantly vituperated us, attempted to alienate/brainwash us against any form of relationship with our mother and her family, attempted to destroy relationships between Syd/Dani and I, and much more.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">My sisters desperately need help in continuing to fight to be heard. They are currently in imminent danger of being returned to our father and abuser. He submitted his requisition paperwork late last week and a requisition court hearing has been set for March 4th. I started <a href="https://www.gofundme.com/dsjfw0">their GoFundMe</a> in August of 2014, but unfortunately most of it has been used trying to get their petition brought to court from July 2014--April 2015. The legal fees continue to climb and I fear that my sisters will be lost due to lack of finance. It is horrible that justice has a price in our situation.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">That being said, I am so <i>extremely</i> grateful to all who have donated. I am constantly overwhelmed with gratitude as I see names of family and friends (and anonymous people) donate who are showing their utmost support for Sydney and Dani. I am also very thankful for those who cannot donate but show their support in other ways, by sharing their</span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"> </span><a href="https://www.gofundme.com/dsjfw0" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">GoFundMe</a><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"> and any supportive articles and posts. </span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Please click </span><a href="https://www.facebook.com/WolfertsSisters/?fref=nf" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">here</a><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"> to "like" and follow my Facebook page updates.

Sydney and Dani have been in detention for 48 days.</span><br />
<span style="background-color: white; color: #141823; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; line-height: 18px; white-space: pre-wrap;"><br /></span>
<span style="background-color: white; color: #141823; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; line-height: 18px; white-space: pre-wrap;">The morning of Friday, February 12th, my mom submitted signed paperwork from the GAL giving her consent for Sydney and Dani to participate in therapy, and my dad was ordered to have his therapy papers for my sisters signed by Tuesday so that the girls could begin working with a therapist from Slate Canyon. We waited to hear if the papers were submitted on time, because the next hearing would be one of two different days, dependent on when he completed them. We heard back Tuesday night that he finished them, so court would be held regular time tomorrow (Friday).</span><br />
<div class="" data-block="true" data-offset-key="8hof6-0-0" style="background-color: white; color: #141823; line-height: 18px; white-space: pre-wrap;">
<div class="_1mf _1mj" data-offset-key="8hof6-0-0" style="direction: ltr; position: relative;">
<span data-offset-key="8hof6-0-0"><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Continuing with updates from the 12th: the GAL had not yet seen any requisition paperwork and stated that it should have been turned in long ago. The attorney representing my dad stated that the requisition had been started/filed and that he was still trying to obtain counsel, however the GAL responded saying that it is "aggravating to their office" that the father's updates on the requisition process haven't been given at all. It was stated by another attorney that if the father has been moving with this process "as fast as he can", it is absolutely ridiculous that the girls have been in jail for 41 days with zero updates.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Dani spoke at the end of her hearing and briefly stated that she doesn't feel like a criminal in Slate Canyon, and although Sydney didn't say anything in court that day, they've both expressed to me how much they appreciate the wonderful teachers and leaders working with them there in our visits together. Our family is very grateful that they are with such a kind and supportive staff there. Although I still believe the girls need treatment in a different type of environment than a detention center, I feel that is a tremendous blessing.</span></div>
</div>
<div class="" data-block="true" data-offset-key="fv4q8-0-0" style="background-color: white; color: #141823; line-height: 18px; white-space: pre-wrap;">
<div class="_1mf _1mj" data-offset-key="fv4q8-0-0" style="direction: ltr; position: relative;">
<span data-offset-key="fv4q8-0-0"><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">My dad is in Utah and will be (to the best of my knowledge) attending court tomorrow. This was recently discovered as we have spent the last two weeks unable to serve him with the petition in Kansas, due to him being here beyond our knowledge. I'm not sure quite what to expect for tomorrow. I do believe that my father has intentionally withheld updates on the requisition process as some kind of tactic, because if he had truly finished them as he has stated, there is no reason the GAL's office and court had absolutely no word from him. I also believe he may try to show up in court tomorrow with an order from a Kansas judge, even without following proper Utah laws for the requisition process, and try to get my sisters sent to him as soon as this weekend. As I said, I don't know what to expect.</span></span><br />
<span data-offset-key="2j0vh-0-0" style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">I will keep you all informed as quickly as possible. Not knowing what time court would be for part of this week threw me off a bit. Thank you so much for your support and prayers on the girls' behalf! Please let me know if you have any additional questions I may be able to answer about current happenings, or anything in specific. You can follow my/their Facebook page by clicking <a href="https://www.facebook.com/WolfertsSisters/">here</a>. </span></span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Please, please keep sharing the blog and their Gofundme for donations to help them have the voice they deserve.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Sydney, Dani and I have suffered long enough watching our mother being pinned with untruthful accusations of "coaching/alienating/brainwashing" us. In addition to the many facts that point to the truth, I would like to briefly share my personal experience. My mom tried <i>so</i> hard to do the right thing and change the subject or bring up Dad's good traits when we would talk about the awful things he was doing and saying to us. I would see the pain in her eyes as we expressed the fears we had around him, but she wouldn't talk to us about them. </span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">It made me so confused</span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">, because she didn't validate the things we were saying--let alone encourage us to ever talk bad about Brian </span><i style="font-family: verdana, sans-serif;">in the slightest</i><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">. </span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">I didn't understand until I was older that the courts told both parents they weren't supposed to ever put the other parent down or talk about court proceedings to the children.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; clear: both;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br></span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; clear: both;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">The extremely confusing part to us was that our father was the one constantly putting her down, while he told the world that his ex-wife was alienating his children against him and "coached" us into making up abuse. We watched our father get away with everything--treating us abusively, trying to hurt our relationship with our mother, constantly telling us about court proceedings and threatening us to never speak "bad" about him to ANYONE--and yet our time with him only lengthened.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; clear: both;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br></span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; clear: both;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Our dad uses this "brainwashing" argument against my mom because it's an effective way of killing multiple birds with one stone--if he can convince people that our mom had coached us, then it not only invalidates anything my mom experienced but also discounts anything my sisters and I have suffered from at his hands.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; clear: both;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-weight: bold;"><br></span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; clear: both;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-weight: bold;">When Mr. Ron Wilkinson stated to the news that these are the same allegations my mom (Michelle) has been accusing for years, he is essentially claiming that instead of the abuse my sisters and I have suffered being a true fact, our real experiences are somehow the effect of "brainwashing" by our mother. These wrongful accusations have been created by our alienating, brainwashing, abusive dad. </span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; clear: both;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br></span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; clear: both;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Because my dad instantly began claiming my mother was mentally ill from the moment she began to believe our reports that he was abusing us (he would always tell her that we were lying), my mother began asking to take psychological tests. The following is only one of several healthy results:</span><br>

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">My dad's attorney Ron Wilkinson has been making statements to news crews regarding the abuse allegations that aren't true. I don't always discuss responses of my dad and his attorney, but the following statement he made to the Daily Herald needs to be addressed.

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">In this post, I'm going to discuss why Wilkinson's statement is untrue to the highest degree. It will follow into the next post which will discuss the brainwashing/alienation/coaching accusations against my mother, and how my sisters and I have not been "coached" into talking about fabricated abuse. Everything we have talked about is what we have experienced firsthand, and there are many <a href="http://wolfertssisters.blogspot.com/p/otherdocuments.html">documents</a> and professional evaluations that speak of this truth.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><b>FACTS regarding substantiated abuse:</b></span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; clear: both;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br></span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; clear: both;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">1) On January 3, 2005, DCFS SUBSTANTIATED domestic related child abuse and neglect against my dad because among other things, we had witnessed him attempting to throw my mom down the stairs. That was only one out of the uncountable acts of violence he committed against my mother, myself and my sisters. My sisters and I never had the opportunity to tell DCFS about all of the physical abuse he frequently committed against us, because of the fact that abused children usually cannot instantly recall random, traumatic memories during very short interview(s) done by relative strangers. Especially when it is a stranger who they believe will report to their Dad, who will then punish us through further severe emotional abuse for speaking out (Remember, this is our same father who <a href="http://wolfertssisters.blogspot.com/2014/12/obsessive-control-monitoring-movements.html">punishes us for something as simple and harmless as breathing or blinking</a>).</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; clear: both;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br></span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; clear: both;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">2) I have the entire DCFS document that proves the fact that DCFS clearly did support a finding of abuse against my Dad, and that they documented both their conversation and their letter to my dad informing him they had substantiated abuse against him. <u>My dad's attorney Mr. Wilkinson, the GAL Kelly Peterson and the Special Master Sandra Dredge had all received copies of the DCFS substantiated abuse against my dad,</u> yet Ron Wilkinson still made the statement, "the allegations are unsubstantiated claims made by his ex-wife Michelle to gain custody" to the news.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; clear: both;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br></span></div>

<span data-offset-key="fspvu-0-0"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I have been approved for supervised visitation once a week. I was so grateful to find out that I could see them last night. As soon as they saw me their faces lit up in a huge smile and they ran to me for a hug, and we all laughed and cried all at the same time. They're almost as tall as me, and they've changed so much. They told me that they were so glad to know that I've been fighting for them. We spent the entire visit laughing and catching up--they had so many stories and they're so relieved to be in Utah.</span></span><br />
<span data-offset-key="fspvu-0-0"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div class="_45m_ _2vxa" data-block="true" data-offset-key="fspvu-0-0" style="background-color: white; direction: ltr; position: relative;">
<span data-offset-key="fspvu-0-0"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><span style="color: #141823;"><span style="line-height: 18px; white-space: pre-wrap;">The detention center is as friendly as a state prison can be. It's definitely not where Syd and Dani should be, but they're good sports and even joked about how scared the other delinquents are of them, and wonder what the girls did to get two sisters in jail. At one point Syd said, "It can be lonely and it's hard not to feel like I've done something bad to be placed here," and then she added somberly, "but it's nothing compared to how I've felt my whole life" (referring to how she always felt isolated and how she felt like she was always doing something wrong at dad's). Dani nodded her head in agreement. Later, Sydney and Dani expressed to me how at dad's house they would always look at peers in school and wonder if they were going through the same pain they secretly were. It broke my heart that I wasn't allowed to discuss anything about the situation with them, and I tried my best to change the subject but also let them know I understood.</span></span></span></span></div>
<div class="_45m_ _2vxa" data-block="true" data-offset-key="fspvu-0-0" style="background-color: white; color: #141823; direction: ltr; line-height: 18px; position: relative; white-space: pre-wrap;">
<span data-offset-key="fspvu-0-0"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">As far as the immediate placement of the girls is concerned after today's hearing, nothing has yet changed. In their detention review hearing it was ordered that they are to safely remain in Slate Canyon at least until the next hearing, which will take place in a week. However...</span></span></div>
<div class="_45m_ _2vxa" data-block="true" data-offset-key="kuql-0-0" style="background-color: white; color: #141823; direction: ltr; line-height: 18px; position: relative; white-space: pre-wrap;">
<span data-offset-key="kuql-0-0"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><b>It has been made known that my dad started the requisition process immediately after the first hearing.</b> The definition of requisition is "an official order laying claim to the use of property or materials" (the legal definition is very similar). This means the girls would be moved to Kansas against their will and by BRUTE FORCE as possessions, not people.</span></span></div>
<div class="_45m_ _2vxa" data-block="true" data-offset-key="cours-0-0" style="background-color: white; color: #141823; direction: ltr; line-height: 18px; position: relative; white-space: pre-wrap;">
<span data-offset-key="cours-0-0"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">An example of the way I've always seen my dad manipulate the truth is the way he's been telling the media and news that he's "happy the girls are in Utah" and wants them to "have a voice", while he's been working simultaneously on this violent removal process which strips them of all rights. The girls have as many rights as fetal tissue, at this point. This is extortion. </span></span></div>
<div class="_45m_ _2vxa" data-block="true" data-offset-key="74k1-0-0" style="background-color: white; color: #141823; direction: ltr; line-height: 18px; position: relative; white-space: pre-wrap;">
<span data-offset-key="74k1-0-0"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">What my dad is doing right now is one of thousands of examples of how my tries to present himself the exact opposite of who he is. I'm sick at the thought of my sisters being treated like nothing, and being dragged to Kansas against their will. I'm so worried for them.</span></span></div>

(For example, </span><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">when it mentions "pedophilia" allegations vs. the physical, emotional and psychological abuse allegations. The C.Y. Roby report discusses my dad's sexual arousal towards children but that's not what I've tried to take him to court for)</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I was <i>so</i> relieved to hear the Guardian ad Litem represent that the girls are now officially enrolled in school, that they are completely up-to-date <span class="text_exposed_show" style="display: inline;">with school work (even beyond normal qualifications) because of the online schooling they did while they were in hiding, and that they are healthy (other than Syd having a cold this week). I'm not sure what exactly will come next but the court will most likely consider who the girls will be placed with.</span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><div style="margin-bottom: 6px;">
I am so grateful that the girls have someone to represent them and truly speak for them! The girls will finally have a chance to have a voice. It is still a very real threat that my dad will try to get them back to Kansas. He has stated that he is saving his one trip to Utah to 'make it count' and take them back. I am supremely concerned that if they return to him, he will try to place them in a threat therapy program and they will be damaged and victimized for trying to speak out.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 6px;">
<br /></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 6px; margin-top: 6px;">
I have not yet been able to visit with the girls and talk to them in person, my dad's parents have been the only ones allowed to see them so far. This is violating the girls rights and they need to be able to choose to visit (or at least call) anyone they wish. I will keep you updated (as much as is appropriate) as there are many court hearings to come. <span style="line-height: 21.4667px;">Thank you all for your prayers and fasts, I know that prayers were answered yesterday and the Lord is watching.</span><span style="line-height: 21.4667px;"> </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Throughout the happenings this week, I can't stop thinking about how my sisters told me over and over that they would run away rather than return to our dad. Then they ran. My sisters have also told me over and over that they would rather die than suffer his abuse alone, isolated from all friends and family like they were in Kansas. I am completely terrified that my sisters are going to harm themselves, run away again, or <u>worse</u> if they are sent back to him. </span><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">My father has never offered them a place they feel safe. He continues to tell people the girls are brainwashed which I KNOW is not true. </span></div>
<div class="_45m_ _2vxa" data-block="true" data-offset-key="73ocv-0-0" style="background-color: white; color: #141823; direction: ltr; line-height: 18px; position: relative; white-space: pre-wrap;">

<div class="_45m_ _2vxa" data-block="true" data-offset-key="73ocv-0-0" style="background-color: white; direction: ltr; position: relative;">
<span style="color: #141823; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><span style="line-height: 18px; white-space: pre-wrap;">I KNOW what the girls face if they're sent back to my father. I know because I </span></span><u style="color: #141823; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; line-height: 18px; white-space: pre-wrap;">lived it with them,</u><span style="color: #141823; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; line-height: 18px; white-space: pre-wrap;"> and they told me he worsened even more after the move to Kansas</span><span style="color: #141823; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><span style="line-height: 18px; white-space: pre-wrap;"> (this was 6 months after I turned 18 and promised I would help them get out). I cannot stress the extent of the severe psychological (and even physical) punishment that he will exercise upon them. </span></span></div>

<span style="color: #141823; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><span style="line-height: 18px; white-space: pre-wrap;">Please, if you're never had an abusive parent, don't discount my words. You don't know what abusers are capable of. </span></span><span style="color: #141823; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; line-height: 18px; white-space: pre-wrap;">My father Brian Wolferts can and will do all he can to make my mother Michelle pay, even if it harms his own daughters. He will also do all he can to make the girls pay for speaking out against him in July of 2014, and for the 18 months they have been free from him. </span></div>
<div class="_45m_ _2vxa" data-block="true" data-offset-key="73ocv-0-0" style="background-color: white; direction: ltr; position: relative;">

<span style="color: #141823; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; line-height: 18px; white-space: pre-wrap;">This post is a desperate plea from Sydney and Dani's sister who suffered at the hands of the <u>same</u> abuser. If they're sent back to Kansas, I fear these things WILL take place. </span></div>

I decided that this would be very important to post.</span><br>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><b>1) He will continue to claim brainwashing. Our entire lives my dad's main response to anything we've stated against him has been "they're brainwashed by their mother" and/or "they're lying". </b>He has also told people that I am manipulative, a liar, am trying to ruin his life.<b> </b>So of course I know this will be the response to any media when asked about the abuse allegations all three of us have made against him.</span><br>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><b>2) My dad is talking about sending the girls into therapy. I would like to talk about what he means when he says "therapy", and what kind of therapy he put them/me in before</b>. Not long after the custody change to my dad in 2010, my dad put us in therapy at a place called the Greenhouse in Pleasant Grove, Utah (where we were living). He told us that our church ward was paying. It was apparent from the beginning to all three of us that he had influenced the counseling center to believe that we had been brainwashed by our mother, and that the purpose of counseling was to reverse that. We were guided to talk about our mother and if we brought up anything our father was doing, we were directed back to the subject of our mom. It was obvious that he was closely updating how the sessions were going and what was said during our meetings, which were supposed to be completely private. </span><br>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Not long after starting, all of our counselors began saying, "It feels like there is an elephant in the room. There is something that is being held back". We knew in our minds and hearts that it was our father's abuse that we were going through at that very moment and we wanted to talk about it so badly. We were in pain because w</span><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">hile we suffered abuse in my father's home we were being treated for healing from non-existent brainwashing against him and repairing our relationship with our father. What</span><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"> we needed was healing from current abuse we were experiencing at home caused by our dad. </span><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: x-small;">I can't speak specifically for Sydney and Danielle's counselors, but the girls did confide in me that the following circumstances happened similar for them:</span></span><br>

<div style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;">
<img height="640" src="https://scontent.fsnc1-1.fna.fbcdn.net/hphotos-xat1/v/t1.0-9/10297826_10206894616657872_8916968762324878704_n.jpg?oh=3d4d411d91517f4db72795cd3d74d1f5&oe=570509E7" style="text-align: center;" width="360" /></div>
<br />
At 3:05 A.M. on January 3, 2016, I received a phone call that my mother and sisters had been found in Pleasant Grove, Utah. I was relieved to know they were alive and together, but worried about their overall state of being and desperately wanted to see them. (To read more how I was treated when I went to the Orem Police Department, read this post on <a href="https://www.facebook.com/brittany.wolferts/posts/10206894207647647">Facebook</a>.)<br />
<br />
No more than a few minutes after I made my first Facebook post, the OPD posted this update stating they were holding my sisters for our father, Brian (screenshot on the right). In the press conference with Lt. Craig Martinez--which was partially aired on news channels tonight--he stated that it would be one or two weeks at most until the girls were reunited with Brian, and they would "probably" be going through some kind of process with DCFS.<br />
<br />
This means that I have a week (two, at most) to fight for my sisters legally, without having any knowledge of where they are. They are said to be in the "state's custody", but they are not currently with Slate Canyon or any other youth facilities in the area. I'm concerned for their physical, emotional and mental welfare if they are simply delivered into the hands of our abusive father with no contact to anyone else, let alone legal protection or someone to help them have a voice. Please, please donate to my <a href="https://www.gofundme.com/SaveWolfertsGirls">GoFundMe</a> so that I can keep taking legal action the best I can.<br />
<br />
My mother was recently bailed, and I have been reunited with her. She was interviewed by many of the news channels today, and <a href="http://kutv.com/news/local/older-sister-missing-teens-on-the-run-from-father">KUTV</a> is the only news channel to have posted the entire interview without cuts.

Many of you have asked what you can do to help. I would ask to please include Sydney and Danielle in your prayers at this time. Please <a href="https://www.gofundme.com/SaveWolfertsGirls">donate</a>, if you can, so that I can fight for them to be heard and not placed back with our father silently. Please <u>share</u> their story by sharing this blog, until they are able to have the proper legal representation that they so deserve.</div>

Today marks 16 months and 494 days since Sydney and Dani ran away on July 17, 2014.</span></span><br />
<span style="background-color: white; color: #373e4d; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></span>
<span style="background-color: white; color: #373e4d; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">I miss my sisters and mom every single day, but October/November/December is harder than most. As some of you know, Dani's 15th birthday was October 29th, my mom's birthday was November 4th, and then the holidays follow, which feel especially lonely. Every day that has passed this month, I have wanted so badly to blog but the pain of trying to explain how I feel is overwhelming. </span></span><br />
<span style="background-color: white; color: #373e4d; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></span>
<span style="background-color: white; color: #373e4d; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">This morning I woke up and my first thought, as usual, was wondering how my mom and sisters are doing. </span></span><span style="background-color: white; color: #373e4d; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; white-space: pre-wrap;">I can only hope and pray that my family is being taken care of and fed well today. T</span><span style="background-color: white; color: #373e4d; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; white-space: pre-wrap;">his will be the second Thanksgiving that they do not have the ability to celebrate with loved ones or even see loved ones because of my father Brian Wolferts and the corruption of the court system that brought us to this point (an upcoming post will touch more on this).</span><br />
<span style="background-color: white; color: #373e4d; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; white-space: pre-wrap;"><br /></span>
<span style="background-color: white;"><span style="color: #373e4d; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><span style="white-space: pre-wrap;">When my situation went national, I saw a lot of comments being thrown around the internet regarding the girls being in hiding. I saw many people accuse me and my family of being "abusers" because I "supported" them being in hiding. I feel the need to clarify a few things. </span></span></span><br />
<span style="background-color: white;"><span style="color: #373e4d; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><span style="white-space: pre-wrap;"><br /></span></span></span>
<span style="background-color: white;"><span style="color: #373e4d; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><span style="white-space: pre-wrap;"><u>What I do not support:</u></span></span></span><br />
<span style="background-color: white;"><span style="color: #373e4d; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><span style="white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="color: #373e4d;">I am not in support with them being isolated from society. I hope that they are getting some kind of schooling because I am also not in support with them missing school </span><span style="color: #373e4d;">(but if they are with my mother--a teacher and a nurturer--I think she would be doing everything she can to keep their schooling a priority). I am not in support of them enduring the difficulties and that I'm sure come with trying to live undercover.</span></span></span></span><br />
<span style="background-color: white;"><span style="color: #373e4d; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><span style="white-space: pre-wrap;"><br /></span></span></span>
<span style="background-color: white;"><span style="color: #373e4d; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><span style="white-space: pre-wrap;">I am also not in support of child abusers. I am not in support of the way the courts never talked to us, the way they struck our mom's pleadings and gave our abuser full custody after six years of living with our mom (despite the <a href="http://wolfertssisters.blogspot.com/p/custody-report.html">findings</a> against him). I am not in support of the way my dad's attorney <a href="http://wolfertssisters.blogspot.com/p/timeline.html">slyly pushed Sydney and Dani's court date</a> from early July to October, denying me of reading their evidence in that Utah court and telling Sydney and Dani they simply had to go back to their abuser in Kansas after exposing him.</span></span></span><br />
<span style="background-color: white;"><span style="color: #373e4d; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><span style="white-space: pre-wrap;"><br /></span></span></span>
<span style="background-color: white;"><span style="color: #373e4d; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><span style="white-space: pre-wrap;">The list goes on forever, but the bottom line is: I am not in support of Sydney and Danielle Wolferts continually being silenced sent back to our abuser.</span></span></span><br />
<span style="background-color: white;"><span style="color: #373e4d; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><span style="white-space: pre-wrap;"><br /></span></span></span>
<span style="background-color: white; color: #373e4d; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; white-space: pre-wrap;"><u>What I do support:</u></span><br />
<span style="background-color: white; color: #373e4d; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; white-space: pre-wrap;">I am in support of my sisters being free from our abuser, voicing the truth of what they have endured, and being heard. There is nothing more important than this. </span><br />

<span style="background-color: white; color: #373e4d; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; white-space: pre-wrap;">Since they ran away, there hasn't been a chance to hear their full story. They sent in videos on an unmarked package to one of my extended family members throughout last year, but there isn't much else. </span><span style="background-color: white; color: #373e4d; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; white-space: pre-wrap;">Here is a link to their first </span><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6bKhc9RNM-0" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; white-space: pre-wrap;">video</a><span style="background-color: white; color: #373e4d; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; white-space: pre-wrap;">, and I highly recommend watching the others. It is obvious that they have practiced what they decided to say, and are even reading from paper in some, but regardless they are speaking their truth. Here is a link to the <a href="http://wolfertssisters.blogspot.com/p/otherdocuments.html">"Documents"</a> tab where some of Sydney and Dani's writings and journal entries are located.</span><br />

<span style="background-color: white; color: #373e4d; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; white-space: pre-wrap;">If you are wondering how you can help, I would ask you to please continue sharing the blog link with everyone who hasn't had the chance to read it. Some people--for reasons completely beyond my understanding--believe that children's statements need to be ignored and they should be placed with the parent that they say is their abuser. Other people are confused in what they believe because haven't read this blog and my sister's statements. So please--share on social media, and keep them in your prayers. This is their second Thanksgiving spent in hiding, because the courts didn't protect them from our father.</span><br />

<span style="background-color: white; color: #373e4d; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; white-space: pre-wrap;">I wish you all a Happy Thanksgiving! Spend it making precious memories with your families. We never know how much time we have with them.</span><br />
