Is there a second thread? Can't find one anywhere. I am also overly invested and need to know the outcome and marvel at the detective work of MN's.

Ah sorry I didn't realise there was another thread. Search brought up this one.

the couple made it very clear to CBC officers during their initial interactions and throughout court proceedings that they believe the law of the Cayman Islands does not apply to them and that they do not recognize the jurisdiction of this country.
Although appearing during the trial on September 3rd and 4th, they refused to participate in the proceedings and refused legal counsel assigned to them.

How arrogant.
Poor kids.

"In a headlock at Chester Zoo" is the line that none of us saw coming.

Thank you. I found the first video very hard to hear with all the background noise, but got the gist of it. The levels of delusion are astonishing. Thank goodness the children are safe and with foster carers. Hopefully they will receive a stable upbringing now. I can't understand how these two idiots didn't put their children first to start with and avoid all this horrible mess.

I thought I heard the lady protesting say something about people getting worried when Iuliia got pregnant? That could explain why they set off to give birth on a beach in the first place.

They also talked about a family that Clive and Iuliia were trying to help, but it went wrong. Are these the people they were trying to smuggle, who complained that they were being kept as slaves, that they are now in prison for?

I think we're at the stage that if it was a Netflix Original (based on a true story), we'd be thinking that they'd stretched the truth a lot, it's such an unbelievable set of circumstances.

It's very difficult to tell what is deliberate lies and what is just deluded tosh.

I can't hear the video. Can you paraphrase please?

Well if any of us were wondering whether or not these are batshit 'freeman of the land' types with grandiose ideas about being above the law, this campaign would certainly support that hypothesis. Do they really think they're helping? Bonkers.

”they are completely innocent. The nasty government wouldn’t give them the paper after the perfectly normal and reasonably birth. Clive went to the paper to expose the truth. The UK government was embarrassed/ caught out/ saw an opportunity and swooped in to kidnap the poor child left in the UK. Clive retuned to the UK and went on the lamb with his daughter , but was caught at Chester Zoo and restrained with duct tape (I guess the police forgot their handcuffs?) and was put in a headlock. The daughter hasn’t been seen since.

Over in the Caribbean , this poor, kind hearted soles were only trying to help out a family in need when the authorities have falsely accused them - implication was to steal the baby. They have now been separated (i.e 2 in prison and the baby into foster care) to stop Clive spreading the truth.”

Chester Zoo? So he was back in the U.K.?

I can’t see anything online about an arrest at Chester Zoo. You’d think it would make the papers.

That’s an old article. Someone posted that a year ago already. I got excited though thinking it was another update. 🤣

Keep the scum out of the uk. Drop them on a remote island is the answer
