Jean Paul Lacombe: Boy kidnapped by father on school bus still missing (video)

Jean Paul Lacombe: Boy kidnapped by father on school bus still missing (video)

Where is Jean Paul Lacombe? A desperate search continues for 10-year-old Jean Paul Lacombe. He was kidnapped by his father, Juan Felipe Lacombe Vega, who lied and forged paperwork to appear as if he had legal custody of his son. A video showing the October 16, 2009 abduction has circulated the web and caused great distress for those who’ve witnessed it. Now, questions are being asked of the Texas authorities as to how they could have let this happen. Jean Paul Lacombe was beyond distraught when authorities removed him, crying in a state of panic and telling the police that he did not want to go with his father.

If you haven’t seen the video, here it is:

 

It is heartbreaking to watch the video and to hear the fear in his voice. Not only was Jean Paul Lacombe’s father lying regarding custody, he had lost visitation rights for kidnapping the child previously.

Jean Paul Lacombe is 10 years old; he is Hispanic and has black hair and dark brown eyes. He stands 4’5” tall and weighs 99 pounds. He has a small scar on his left eyebrow.
His father is 41 years old and is Hispanic. He has black hair and gray eyes. He stands 5’11” and weighs 200 pounds. It is believed that Juan Felipe Lacombe Vega might take his son to France or Mexico. Jean Paul may be using the name ‘Paul’ and Juan Felipe may be using the name ‘Jean Philippe Lacombe.

    So where is Obama, Hillary, NBC, CNN and some senators to help get this boy returned after the criminal dad was aided by a judge, and the police (the police forced the terrified boy off the bus and then refused to help after the mother located the boy at the airport herself) Do they know which flight they got on. I guess the US likes father custody more than mother custody, as they hate single moms so much. Where is the outrage, where is the news coverage, and why doesn't anyone notice this.

    Let the "COMPETENT" people who are trained to this work pursue this case. If the president and senate get involved in every case of child abduction, no other business would get done. Nancy Grace is doing this job well; who needs CNN? And in case you are unaware, looking for kidnapped or missing children is not the job of the secretary of state, congress, the senate or the president. There are agencies especially for that.
