It has now been 536 days since my children were kidnapped from a legal parent.

And today, I’m sharing a response that should outrage every parent in this country.

I received a formal letter from the U.S. Department of Justice, Office of the Inspector General stating that the issues I raised “do not warrant an investigation.”

Let that be clear.

According to this division of the DOJ, the following do not warrant investigation:

• Children being kidnapped from a legal parent
• Judges acting without accountability
• Guardians ad litem ignoring documented child trauma
• Social services refusing to intervene
• Federally funded advocacy organizations taking sides without verifying facts
• State actors enabling prolonged separation after allegations were proven false

This is not an allegation.
This is the DOJ Inspector General’s position.

 

🔥 What This Decision Really Says

By declining to investigate, this DOJ office has effectively said:

• The kidnapping of children through state systems is not a priority.
• The violation of parental rights by government actors is not a priority.
• The suffering of children—documented, recorded, and ignored—is not a priority.

This is not justice.
This is institutional indifference.

This is only the first response from six DOJ divisions I have contacted, so there is still hope from the others.

 

📬 THE DOJ INVITED MORE INFORMATION — SO LET’S GIVE IT TO THEM

Here is the part they likely did not expect.

In the same letter, the DOJ Inspector General stated:

• “Of course, if you have new information… please feel free to submit that information to us.”

So here’s my response:

We will. Together.

If the DOJ won’t investigate based on one parent’s evidence, then thousands of parents must force them to confront this crisis.

📊 A Brutal Reality Check

So far:

• 4,800+ people have viewed this petition
• 269 people have signed
• 14 promoters have brought in 78 signatures

I am grateful for every signature, every comment, and every shared story. Many of you have lived this nightmare yourselves.

But the numbers also expose a painful truth:

👉 Public apathy mirrors government apathy.

If only a fraction of people who read this are willing to act, why would the DOJ or legislators feel pressure to investigate?

Silence protects this system.

 

🧠 Why This Matters Beyond My Family

This is not just about my children.

My federal civil-rights case—Alvar v. State of Minnesota—names 27 defendants, including judges, agencies, and publicly funded organizations. It documents how children can be kidnapped from a legal parent without due process, and how every safeguard is ignored once the system decides not to intervene.

If this can happen with recordings, police reports, sworn testimony, and court findings proving a parent is fit…

👉 What happens to families with no evidence at all?

This is how a nation normalizes child kidnapping through bureaucracy.

 

✍️ If You’re Angry — Prove It With Action

If you believe:

• Child kidnapping should be investigated
• Government actors should be accountable
• Children should not suffer in silence
• Parents should not lose their children without due process

Then please do all three:

1. Sign this petition
2. Share it
3. Write to the DOJ Inspector General at the address above

This petition is being watched by legislators.
Public pressure is the only thing that forces action.

 

🔴 This Fight Is Not Ending

It has been 536 days since my children were kidnapped.

I will not stop.
I will not soften the language.
I will not accept silence as an answer.

If the DOJ and our state governments refuse to act, then we will expose their refusal—together.

This fight is for my children.
And it’s for every family who has been told their suffering isn’t worth investigating.
