You can call them accomplices, but I would call them good friends who helped a friend in a time of need, if in fact they were involved.

I would call them "business acquaintances" who live in Fukuoka, Japan. Who knows, maybe Chris duped them into coming along, just like…

Longtime Resident:

I am sorry to be blunt but you have no idea of what you speak.

Well, same to you! You made a statement and I asked a question, which you still have not answered very well.

How do you know that "denial of access invariably leads to a…

Its still hearsay.

They are comments made by Chris Savoie, duly recorded at a large business meeting. Incidentally, this was early August, just before Noriko left for Japan.

Judge Martin, who you say treated Noriko fairly was the mediator in the marriage dissolution agreement (mda).

Well, Martin was fair…

The occasion was a panel discussion on early- and growth-stage companies, organized by the Nashville Health Care Council and Nashville Capital Network.

That is where he told them about his hypochondriac condition, and how that led him to technology.

He cannot be around people treating them as people, but as…

LFRAgain,

Unfortunately you are too busy taking aim at other posters to realize that Chris Savoie's mental health is an issue first brought up by himself.

"Savoie explained that it was during his medical studies that he learned he was a hypochondriac who was not comfortable dealing with the sick."…

Had Japan been a party to the Hague Convention Chris would never have had to seek his rights in the United States...

You are making a great leap of assumptions in saying that this was the reason Chris wanted a divorce in America. Afterwards, it was his pretext, yes,…

It's interesting that there have been insinuations that Chris is guilty of much more than this brutal kidnapping. Yes, these are "rumours" and unsubstantiated, but it is possible that people in the know are injecting this information onto the American forums. The idea is that Chris is a consummated con…

the bottom line is will they grant him visitation rights?

The bottom line is will Amy visit him in jail with her 3 kids, or will she be busy with some other married man?

So far, Amy has been energetic with her tough talk about how she wanted to…

she couldn't adjust to American customs.

It is not an American custom for a homewrecker whose new husband has partial custody (2 weekends a month) to be visiting the home of the ex-wife, constantly emailing and texting her, etc. That's harassment by any standard and Chris encouraged it.

There…

igotchu:

I recommend you read carefully all of the statements made by Amy to the American media, bearing in mind that Chris had not been granted anything more than 2 weekends per month partial custody.

Under those circumstances, Amy's 3 children do not become "siblings" by any reasoning. Yet Amy…
