    Default International Parental Kidnapping

    My question involves criminal law for the state of: Massachusetts and Costa Rica. I took my son to costa rica with mothers notarized permission to do so out of the state of Florida with no return date. As i was at the airport leaving she rips up piece of paper making a me sign to reurn child to her within two weeks. Original deal was for me to have n take care of my son while she finds a n apt., a car, and a job which she had niether of the 3. While not knowing niether i found out she had a dss case in Mass just opened on her, which is her 3rd one within 2years for drugs. 3 weeks go by she asks for her son, i told her again look for an apt which id help pay, she looked couldnt find one of course. she called the police. the officer first made a criminal report making it a misdamenor charge to the magistrate. then he found out he messed up because it was a felony because it was out of state. so now there was two made. The DA found out about this 20 months later then asking for an apology for my charge to be changed to a felony. i was arrest and held in costa rica 2 months before the courts accepted this. i fought extradition on false charges for 10 months in CR. I just made a ludicrous high bail and am free, but i believe the police and DA messed up badly with their side. My son is still in Costa Rica with family where he is doing excellent in school. My case is a little complex but i am very much int he right of this where the mother is on drugs an cares only for me to be in jail. i would just like to know if i can do something with how they messed up on switching my charges from a misdamenor to felony and extraditing me on it?

    You need a criminal defense lawyer for your criminal case, and a custody lawyer for your child custody case. This is way more than we can help you with through a forum.
