Abusive Parents Who Sabotage the Medical Care of Their Children: The Susan Murphy-Milano Show Thursday April 5, 2012

A mother caught up by a psychopathic former husband in a court battle involving life and death issues with their son Clayton, who was born with nephrology issues that led to his first kidney transplant as a toddler. Mother and father divorced many several years ago.

The court at trial granted the mother custody of Clayton due to the father’s acts of domestic violence (against other women as well – he also was charged with witness tampering for his threats against those involved in his criminal matter).

Ever since the modification, things have been terrible. The father does not follow instructions of the doctors, preferring to get his medical information from the internet. At one point he gave the child a pill that he purchased off the internet that was guaranteed to cure all kidney disease. Clayton’s transplanted kidney failed and was removed several months ago meaning that he survives off of hemo-dialysis. He travels to Seattle three times a week for this. Mother works night shift at a local hospital and must leave work to get the child to his appointments. Father does everything he can to prevent this – making sure the child is not available to leave for appointments or messing with the transport arrangements, causing him to be late. The is currently in the Court of Appeals The child now has the option of having peritoneal dialysis which would allow him to be treated at home rather than constantly being at the hospital. The father is objecting because if this were to occur, the mother might actually get some sleep. As it is, she barely sleeps between the conclusion of dialysis and returning to work at night. The father argues over every bit of medication that the child is given. He constantly insists that the mother is not following doctor’s orders – although he could not tell you what is ordered. His skills are in throwing rocks that make the mother’s job as a parent as difficult as possible. He has no awareness whatsoever, and would deny, that his antics have genuinely hurt this child.

David Hartley Story One Year Later Still Does Not Float

“Nearly year after David Hartley's mysterious disappearance from Falcon Lake, the man's body has yet to be recovered. CNN reports Hartley's widow, Tiffany, has sued the State Department, Justice Department, and FBI in an attempt to learn what happened to her husband.”

A year has passed when the world heard a distressed wife call and explain from a cell phone that she escaped pirates and her husband had just been shot on Falcon Lake. David Hartley was on his jet skis when the couple was “ambushed.” His body has never been recovered.

I need to clarify first Tiffany Hartley is not a widow. There is no body. A death certificate has never been signed or issued. David Hartley is a missing person. The wife is the sole witness to the craziest story I have ever heard as it relates to missing person intimate partner homicide. In my opinion, this fairy tale is pale in comparison to male offenders murdering their wives or girlfriends. Their stories would never hold water and yet for some reason hers floats.

Tiffany Hartley has sued the State Department, Justice Department and FBI? To learn what happened? Wasn’t she there?

I have said this before, if someone with common sense, a reporter or law enforcement agency takes the words from the 911 call made by Tiffany Hartley and recreates what she said happened on September 30, 2010, at a lake with jet skis, you will see what was said is in my expert opinion a fairy tale. Perhaps those whom were sued could consider saving themselves tax payer dollars find a lake and follow her script.

David Hartley is missing. Body and border patrol used in the same sentence screams foul play. A convenient cover-up for, in my opinion, cold blooded murder.

Times' Up: Let's Find John Morris

On July 30th, 2007, John Morris, 37 years of age, was last seen standing at the end of the driveway at this house on Whites Ferry Road in Dickerson, Maryland.

No one really knows for sure if John Morris had made arrangements to go out for the day or, got in a fight with his then live-in boyfriend Jack Whitescarver.

Intimate partner violence is not gender specific. John Morris was a gay man, in an abusive relationship for over 14 years before vanishing off the face of the earth. John was a successful artist, his paintings sought by collectors world-wide. He lived and breathed his work.

As many in the gay community understand, crimes such as John's are often ignored, never properly investigated, just because of a persons life choices. John's significant other told police, "John just took off." The home where he lived was never searched and the person who, in my opinion, holds the answers was never named as a suspect or person of interest. A case is still unsolved, still cold, in a dark drawer of a file cabinet. The life of John Morris has a hell of lot more value than that and I am asking those in the gay community to help. His mother has been trying to get attention from the public since her son vanished.

Unfortunately, until it happens to someone we know or it affects us directly, people look away, believing it cannot happen to them. I thought the same thing until my involvement in a case of intimate partner violence and homicide in 1989. My mother had been a victim, just like John Morris. No one believed her because she was married to a decorated Chicago violent crimes detective. She died because people refused to help and believe her life was in jeopardy. Since then, I have worked to keep others safe, or assist in finding those who lost their lives and remain missing as a result of intimate partner homicide.

A mother sits by her phone and waits for the call that someone has reported a tip and his remains have been found, or that they have information on what happened to John. No one should have to suffer and live with the unknown. John Morris deserves justice. I am asking for your help.

The gay community in Maryland and Washington DC has the ability to assist in this case. They can put missing persons posters in their businesses, community centers and on websites and social network pages.

For more information please visit the CUE Center for Missing Persons HERE

John Morris would be 42-years-old now. He has two tattoos: one of a snake on his right forearm and another of a scorpion on his left shoulder. Officials are asking anyone with information to please contact them immediately or the CUE Center 1-910-232-1687

If you have information about the whereabouts of John Morris, Jr. please call Detective Stephens in the Montgomery County 5th District Investigative Section at 240-773-6239.

PLEASE LISTEN TO THE SHOW-below

John James Morris- Missing Person case- Susan Murphy Milano Show.
CUE Center For Missing Persons Founder-Monica Caison and the mother of John James Morris discuss the case of John James Morris Jr.

[Officers went to the home to check on Morris' welfare after a neighbor saw him standing in his driveway. When police got there, Morris was gone, but his white pickup truck bearing New Jersey tags was still there.
John has attention deficit hyperactivity disorder. He had no medication for depression with him when he left. John Morris has never been seen or heard from since.]

Tiffany Hartley: Murder in Mexico and President Obama

A cold blooded person usually takes their victim and kills in familiar surroundings. Whether it be places where they grew up, vacationed, hiked or lived, it is specific to either their life or where they spent time together before a murder. In my opinion, Tiffany Hartley is no different from the men who murder their wives.

I understand people deal with trauma differently, and I am here to tell you that anyone who had just witnessed their husband murdered before their eyes is not able to articulate anything other then inaudible speech. As I have always said, and this also applies to myself, victims of this type of trauma have a total recall to detail. A person's trauma is attached and associated directly to the event. I understand forms of grief and reaction are not a gauge to point fingers or accuse a person of murder, but when you have been looking at cases of intimate partner violence as many years as I, you can smell it on someone when their story is bullshit as sure as you can smell a skunks scent.

A person who has experienced a violent death says, "please help me, my husband, oh my God we have to find him," and total focus is only on the loved one. Tiffany and David Hartley were sweethearts since high school! The sentences she speaks are rehearsed words by someone who is covering up for what really happend to David, period. The words are not of a traumatized person who, moments before, looked death in the eye (her words) down a gun barrel herself. It is not possible.

In addition, Tiffany was very familiar with the area and she spoke the language. She and her husband lived not far in Texas from where David Hartley died in foreign waters. What did Tiffany do with her time? Was she employed? Did she have a lot of free time to herself? Did she get involved with groups that advocated changes to our borders? Were she and David involved in something over their heads and something went wrong?

I can tell you from first hand experience, Tiffany's sudden expertise on borders issue, pirates and the drug cartel, and saying, in the same sentence, what President Obama needs to be doing, is from an individual who has long been involved in the movement, behind closed doors. Watch as the unlikely widow articulates foreign policy, listen to the enthusiam in her words during interviews. Now she is doing presentations with law enforcement in Colorado and other places on border patrol issues and our government. In less than 30 days Tiffany Hartley has gone from "International Widow" to an expert on our waters and borders?
She also has an amazing website titled "Bring David Home" ( http://www.bringdavidhome.com/ ) and although I agree we should understand the implications to Americans as it relates to our borders-- using David Hartley to further ones cause and solicit donations, speaks volumes to what her motive is to switch gears by disarming the country away from the truth of what really happend with her husband.

Although you could believe after reading yesterday's and today's post that I am on the attack, that is not my objective. It is to merely show the facts and to inform the general public that no one is immune from killing their loved one, be it a woman or a man.

Wendy Murphy, former prosecutor and now a Fox News legal analyst, has also been under public attack for writing and discussing the Tiffany Hartley case. Many who commented on the article at Fox felt that Wendy Murphy, without facts, is in attack mode of the "poor grieving widow."

Another blog site by the name of Statement Analysis (http://seamusoriley.blogspot.com/) did an analysis HERE on the Hartley case and I am hoping you will take time to read it to understand the real issues behind this so called "grieving widow."

There are other experts who have come to the conclusion that Tiffany Hartley is lying, such as Dr. Lillian Glass and others who you can find by simply googling.

In real time, we have watched a story unfold, literally before our eyes, of a woman "claiming" her husband was murdered in a random isolated incident. If we had watched the exact same story unfold, and it was a man talking about his wife, the public's reaction would be very different.

And folks, that is my point!
