Four years ago Sean Goldman was abducted to Brazil by his mother Bruna Bianchi Goldman and her parents Silvana Bianchi Ribeiro and Raimundo Ribeiro. After her recent death, the man recently married to Bruna, Jo%uFFFDo Paulo Lins e Silva, was shockingly awarded custody by a Brazilian court. Ever since the kidnapping, David Goldman has waged a legal battle to have Sean returned as required by U.S. law and an international treaty signed by both the U.S. and Brazil.
On June 16th, 2004, Bruna Goldman traveled with her son Sean from their home in New Jersey to her native Brazil. The next day, she informed her husband David Goldman that their marriage was over and that she and Sean would be living in Brazil. This unilateral action was a violation of the Hague Treaty on International Child Abduction, a treaty signed by many countries including both the United States and Brazil. It states that Sean should have been returned to the United States for a joint custody hearing.
In August 2008, Bruna died tragically in Brazil. After Bruna's passing, David Goldman assumed he would finally be reunited with Sean. Unfortunately, David finds himself in the midst of another custody battle, this time with Bruna's new husband, Jo%uFFFDo Paulo Lins e Silva. Mr. Lins e Silva has also filed to replace David Goldman's name with his own on a birth certificate issued for Sean in Brazil, claiming socio-affective paternity which would effectively erase the child's true paternity.
Since 2004, David Goldman has fought a desperate and expensive legal battle for custody of his son, first with his wife and now against Jo%uFFFDo Paulo Lins e Silva, a prominent lawyer specializing in international family law. Since the original abduction, David has never been permitted to see Sean and just this past October, Mr. Lins e Silva failed to make Sean available for a scheduled visitation with David and still has not been held accountable for violating a federal court order in Brazil. According to the Hague Convention on the Civil Aspects of International Child Abduction, Sean should have been returned to the United States within six weeks of the abduction for a custodial hearing because his habitual residence had been established in the United States.For more information on this tragic case and a list of additional ways you can help David Goldman, please visit http://www.bringseanhome.org/

We the undersigned state the following:
We believe it would be unconscionable to grant custody to a non-relative when a parent of good character has continuously demonstrated a desire for custody.
All claims for custody of the Lins e Silvas are a direct result of the illegal abduction of Sean by his mother Bruna.
We believe that it is in ANY child's best interest to be raised by his natural parent unless that parent is declared to be unfit. Further more, it is a God given right of parents and children to be together whenever possible.
We request that Minister of Justice Tarso Genro take all appropriate actions to ensure that Brazilian judges understand and respect Brazil's commitment to honoring the intent and spirit of the Hague Treaty for all cases of child abduction. Additionally, we ask that he appeal to the appropriate judges to therefore grant David Goldman's request for the immediate return of Sean Goldman.
We request that all elected and appointed Brazilian and American officials work to ensure and expedite the return of Sean Goldman to his father, David Goldman.
Finally, we request that the Brazilian and American media recognize that the ban on publishing this story instituted by the 13th Civil Court of Rio de Janeiro is not intended for the protection of the minor child as claimed, but for the protection of Lins e Silvas from the consequences of their unethical actions and that therefore this order is unconstitutional. We ask that these organizations join in giving this outrageous and tragic story the international attention that it merits.

N%uFFFDs, abaixo assinados, afirmamos que :
Seria um ato irrespons%uFFFDvel entregar a cust%uFFFDdia de uma crian%uFFFDa a uma cidad%uFFFDo sem relacionamento sangu%uFFFDneo algum com a mesma, sendo que um dos pais, de car%uFFFDter inquestion%uFFFDvel, demonstra, continuamente, seu desejo de recuperar a cust%uFFFDdia de seu filho.
Qualquer demanda de cust%uFFFDdia por parte da Fam%uFFFDlia Lins e Silva %uFFFD um a%uFFFD%uFFFDo resultante do seq%uFFFDestro de Sean Goldman, efetuado por sua m%uFFFDe Bruna Bianchi Goldman.
N%uFFFDs acreditamos que o melhor para uma crian%uFFFDa seria a educa%uFFFD%uFFFDo recebida por seu pai natural, a n%uFFFDo ser que o mesmo n%uFFFDo se encontre em condi%uFFFD%uFFFDes para tal. Alem disso, a uni%uFFFDo entre pai e filho %uFFFD um direito dado por Deus.
N%uFFFDs solicitamos que o Sr. Ministro Tarso Genro tome as a%uFFFD%uFFFDes necess%uFFFDrias para garantir que os Ju%uFFFDzes Brasileiros entendam e respeitem os compromissos do Brazil perante as inten%uFFFD%uFFFDes da Conven%uFFFD%uFFFDo de Haia para todos os casos envolvendo sequestro internacional de menores. Adicionalmente, solicitamos que o Sr. Ministro apele para o Juiz indicado garantir a execu%uFFFD%uFFFDo da solicita%uFFFD%uFFFDo de David Goldman para o retorno imediato de seu filho Sean Goldman aos EUA.
N%uFFFDs demandamos que toda e qualquer Autoridade, eleita ou apontada, brasileira ou americana, trabalhe para o retorno imediato de Sean Goldman a seu pai, David Goldman.
Finalmente, demandamos que a imprensa brasileira e americana reconhe%uFFFDa que a proibi%uFFFD%uFFFDo de divulga%uFFFD%uFFFDo do caso, institu%uFFFDdo pela 13a. Vara C%uFFFDvel do Rio de Janeiro, n%uFFFDo tem como objetivo a prote%uFFFD%uFFFDo do bem-estar do menor Sean Goldman. Ao inv%uFFFDs, tem como objetivo proteger os interesses da Fam%uFFFDlia Lins e Silva resultantes de sua falta de %uFFFDtica no caso acima mencionado. Pedimos que tais %uFFFDrg%uFFFDos da imprensa d%uFFFDem a cobertura merecida a essa hist%uFFFDria tr%uFFFDgica.
