Please help my son, age 7, to be reunited with his family. Please help me and my family locate my son who was kidnapped by Santa Clara County, California. The Violence Against Women Act is being used in Santa Clara County, California to persecute women and children by greedy psychologists and power hungry social workers who prosecute phony domestic violence cases to get federal funds. Please see below my response to the article in the Mercury News below.........

Boy allegedly abducted by mom returned to U.S.
By the Mercury News
A 6-year-old boy allegedly abducted from a Los Gatos care facility by his mother and taken to Canada in July was returned to the United States on Tuesday.

Diane Booth of San Jose, who is charged with child abduction and unlawful flight to avoid prosecution, remains in Vancouver, British Columbia, after filing a petition for political asylum to delay her return to the United States.

Booth\'s son had been a ward of the court and removed from her care and placed at Eastfield Ming Quong before the alleged abduction, according to Los Gatos police. Eastfield is a residential facility for troubled youngsters.

Police said they do not know why Booth lost custody of her son, which they believe happened last January. The boy\'s father has not been involved in his life.

Booth was apprehended on Sunday by Vancouver police after a routine traffic stop. A background check revealed that she was sought by the FBI. Police said Booth had been aided in her flight by family members from New York. A formal asylum hearing is pending in Vancouver.

This is Diane Booth, the woman the article refers to above. Please allow me to inform your readers of what Santa Clara County did to me and my family. Let this also serve as a warning to anyone with small children considering leaving their home state to make those big siliconvalley.bucks. My little boy, age 7, (not 6) was diagnosed with ADHD, and I insisted that the Sunnyvale School District comply with the Americans With Disabilities Act and make reasonable accommodations for my son. The school district retaliated against me, along with their partners in crime, the Santa Clara Co. Social Services, and the Santa Clara Co. District Attorneys Office, and the Public Safety Dept.by concocting malicious lies against me and my boyfirend. I came home from work one day at 5:15 p.m. to find my son had been kidnapped by Santa Clara County gestapo. I was beaten up by a police officer, thrown in jail, my boyfriend was thrown in jail. The week before, SCC had frozen my boyfriend\'s bank account, causing our rent check to bounce, causing us to be evicted from our apartment. My son ended up at EMQ where he was experimented on with all kinds of dangerous drugs and was abused and neglected physically, emotionally and mentally at this facility. He was hospitalized at least 5 times while under their so-called care for injuries sustained at that facility. Santa Clara County added insult to injury by claiming that I was a victim of domestic violence. (The only violence was the police officer who beat me up and the facility who abused my son) They even had the audacity to file a child support enforcement claim against me as ransom. My refusal to testify against my boyfriend who was innocent angered the same DA who maliciously prosecuted me for a phony trumpted-up charge of child endangerment. The social services refused to send my beloved son to his loving family in New York even though my mom begged for temporary custody. I have an appeal and a multi-million dollar lawsuit pending against the County of Santa Clara.

I have refugee status here in Canada, a process which will take many months. In the meantime, I am out of prison and will work full time getting the word out to all the people of the world about the holocaust going on in Santa Clara County. I have met many wonderful people. My prison experience was satisfying in that I have learned so very much. My cell mate was a famous environmentalist who has published a best selling book here.

It is patently ridiculous that I should be charged with criminality for trying to claim and protect what is already mine!!! It is my child, my son, born of my womb, nurtured and raised into a fine young, intelligent boy, until the witches and demons of Silicon Valley destroyed his life, my life and my family\'s lives. It is ironic that I am expected to go to prison and do the time those criminals should be doing because I rescued my beautiful son from the abuse he suffered at the hands of the gangsters who call themselves police, social workers and court officials. The FBI is wasting the taxpayers money to hunt down old ladies and their children, instead of going after real criminals ( who run the County government). The FBI put $500,000 on my head. Canadians shake their heads in disbelief. It is the right of Americans to know what is being done with their tax money, and that little children are being stolen from their mommies so that the County can adopt them to the highest bidders who are unable to have children of their own. The FBI is now harassing and threatening my aging mother. Please help our family. If anyone knows the whereabouts of my son, please email me at SheLaw2000 [at] aol.com or call at 604-454-1774 Diane Booth
