NZ Police aid Child Abduction?
As sent to Annette King, Minister for Police:
Dear Minister,
I am now in receipt of the Official Translation of the Court judgement of 1st December 2005 held at the Malmo County Court, Sweden under the Hague Convention, International Child Abduction which has ordered and is enforcing the return of my two youngest children back to New Zealand.
It categorically states on page 6 (six) ” Since Paul Catton had no right to meet the children she (A L) spoke with the Police, who also signed the children’s passports. The local Police thus knew she was leaving New Zealand”.
Perhaps you can clarify why the New Zealand Police have taken it upon themselves to abet Child Abduction.
Kind Regards
Paul Catton

Good on you Paul.

Glad to hear it. Isn’t it funny how well the “authorities” can act sometimes.

I wonder how many people know the truth about WHY you lost access rights to your children in the first place. Shame on you!
Comment by Sanna — Mon 20th March 2006 @ 3:21 am
I would have to agree with Sanna there, What did you do that was so bad for her to leave the country with the kids in the first place and the police to allow it. I know people in the police force and i know for a fact that they wouldnt enforce something like that unless it was serious.

Yes well I to know the other side of the story (The REAL story)and I really think you need to think about what is best for the children for once, not just trying to hurt their mother.
Like the comments above they are there for a very good reason arn’t they Paul.?

Dear Sarah
You do not know the other side of the story, ( The REAL story) as you put
it.
Instead of assisting the raking of muck, be proactive and come along to the
Men’s Centre North Shore on a Monday evening and assist us trying to repair
the damage that is continually being done by corrupt Lawyers and the
Judicial system to our children through marginalisation.
Kind Regards.

i agree with all comments above, paul, you should be thinking about the happiness of your children and as you clearly state, they still arent back, therefore they are probably happier where they are. Get over it, if your wife had to leave you, there was good reason. stop harassing juges that simply dont care.

There does not appear to be a reply to comments and questions that have been put to you??? instead of refering people to the Mens Centre, would you be courteous enough to give an answer to the question that is being asked.
There are normally two sides to every story, but it seems to me you are putting an enormous amount of blame on everyone but yourself… if you havnt been able to deal with your own issues, of anger and frustration ,I find it hard to comprehend that you should be in a position to “advise” others positively.
Instead of putting all your energy into Fighting the scum lawyers,, as you so ineloquently descrbed them, maybe you should take a long hard look at your own history before putting the blame elsewhere??
Your wife of 22 years left you because of violence, not only to herself but your children,,that is why your children were not placed in your care, Over the last 2 years of your seperation I know you consistantly threatened her physically and mentally,. You moved to a house less that 200 metres from were she lived and regardless of Protection Orders stalked her to the point of terrifying the two children you refer to in The Abduction ,you are also facing a possible conviction for violence against one of your elder sons. which amazingly enough ,you have described yourself as the victim of a home invasion????.
This from your wife and then 16 year old son?How many lies do you have to tell to get the following you so obviously desire,,no matter how many people you convince ??there are so many more that really do know the truth and it is such a shame that evan now you are more concerned about getting your name in print , rather than doing what is right for your children.
In case you are thinking of inviting me to join you on a monday to the Mens centre ,, dont bother,. I would have thought an organisation such as this would spend more time thinking of ways to improve their childrens lives , rather than planning demonstrations outside the homes of people who most probably have children and families of their own,,,and are after all only doing their jobs,
Considering their degrees do not come out of a Box of Cornflakes,I would have think they would be damn site better informed that you or I.

Dear Jack,
There is ever only one story, with perhaps different versions given.
I do not have anger to deal with and I certainly do not put all my energy into seeking “Scum lawyers” change how they act unscrupulously in the family court.
By the content of your comment it would appear you have been familiarised with some of the mud slung at me and which you perceive sticks.
Fact 1.
My wife didn’t leave me for any reason, not violence, alcohol, drugs, gambling, child abuse etc….
I told her to leave as I couldn’t tolerate her dysfunctions any further.
It is not for me to reveal these dysfunctions but my domestic life is utopia without her.
Fact 2.
You have claimed that you know that I have threatended her physically and mentally.
For you to know an event happened you would have had to witness it.
Have you ever seen me with my ex-wife and heard me threaten her.
Have you seen a note or document or telephone recording from me threatening her.
I can only assume you answer is no, as no event occurred.
My niece and I did move from Northland to Auckland and resided within 300 mtrs from my children and 250 mtrs from her half siblings.
5 related children within walking distance who were used to interaction prior to separation.
Fact 3.
When 2 people who are covered by a protection order force their way into your home and trespass, commit wilful damage and further assault you, I would call that home invasion.
When a further person covered by the order also comes round and punches you a couple of times at the same incident, double whammy, who in fact needs protecting.
It would also appear by your comments that you actually do need to attend the North Shore Mens Centre whereby the pink tinged glasses you currently wear may actually come off and re-education of how the family court is manipulated by the likes of my ex-partner perhaps pressured under direction of unscrupulous legal workers.
Should you have any further malicious mud raking to air I am quite happy respond.
Kind Regards
Paul

Dear Charles and Clinton,
Or should I refer to you as Lisa Catton!!
To Sally Wise AKA Grace!
Sanna who comes from Sweden (dont have to be a rocket scientist to guess what your AKA is!
Jack would be MM or a close associate.
Do not you this resource for men as a personal venue for attack against myself and truth.
Your tactics are both pathetic and dishonorable.
You haven’t got the morality to put your names to your attacks which further reinforces that your argument lacks any credibility.
Might I suggest to you Lisa that rather involve yourself in my trying to get my children back, you utilise that time to get your own child back from the car bonnet copulator instead of leaving your daughter in her state of abandonment.
As to you other sychophants, read all the posts on this site and about all the injustices and go out and do something proactive to address this family devastation caused by greed, wantoness, corruption, malfaesance, immorality etc….
Kinde Regards
Paul

How dare you of all people accuse anyone of using this site to put forward their own oppinions. You have consistently lied about how your own actions caused me to leave with our children… you obviously want to believe the lies you have told because maybe then you can somehow justify your actions in some sort of perverted way. I personally do not like to be informed that yet again you are standing on your soap box declaring how you are the victim..when it is you that has been the one who has mentally and physically abused the people you accuse. I have not wanted anything to do with you since our seperation and as ‘Jack’ wrote , our youngest children were made afraid by your constant irratic behaviour ….to which you would not, and i am to believe, have still not sought help for…which amongst other reasons is why we are now living in Sweden. It is not for me to say how you live your life so long as it does not effect any of my family (which obviously includes your own children), what does concern me is your need to belittle anyone who does not hold the same oppinion as yourself. This is the first time I have written on this site as I do believe it should not be a forum for personal attacks,but it appears you are accusing me of this, in doing so making it personal to me…there is a saying ‘if you cant stand the heat get out of the kitchen’…if you constantly want to attack people Paul, you have to expect that one day they might fight back…’the pen is mightier than the sword’ is another saying, but most people havent got time to sit in front of a PC composing clever letters, to possibly hurt,break or tarnish anothers reputation, they try to bury the past and get on with their life in the present, whatever that takes, be it just in acknowleding that a wrong has been done you can possibly repair damage instead of smashing everything to pieces. We do have a Protection Order in place so I personally dont expect or want a reply from you as I have said I want no contact..In saying this you are free to write whatever in the column..thats what you do anyway!

Didn’t take the child abductress long to come out of the woodwork.
The fraud you attemmpted in Sweden shows you haven’t atoned and the dysfunctions continue.
Cease the Parent Alienation, and both you and your parents desist from perjuring yourselves any further.
Enter into constructive dialogue when the children are returned to New Zealand.
Kind Regards
Paul

I think you would all be do yourselves a favour by reading the report by Judge Jan Doogue in which she discusses among other issues, family violence.
It is often suggested, and care arrangements developed around, the notion that children should be separated or protected from an angry parent.
But in almost every case it is the breakdown between parents that is the cause of any aggression or violence, and not the relationship between children and parents.
The probelm as I see it, is that the courts should play a much larger role in ensuring that the relationships with both parents continue, that children are not alienated from one parent, and that hearsay and inuendo is not the deciding factor in a child’s future.
Judge Doogue quite rightly suggests that contact between parents should be supervised rather than contact between children and parents.
If the violence stemmed from the differences between the parents, then separation is a good thing, and is in the best interests of the child; however the child being separated or aliented from either parent is not.

IM Sick And tired of all this Bullshit happening from all of my family.
Im Shocked…..Totaly and utterly SHOCKED.
Shaun and Antonia should be in SWEDEN.
I HAVE been there it is a wonderful country filled with happy, prosperous, lovely people.
I HAVE seen the kids school, It is Marvelous. It makes Auckland Boys Grammer school look like a preschool.
I Have met Shaun’s teachers, they LOVE him and think the world of him, he is a bright young man that needs all the advantages that sweden can offer him, if he wishes to do better in this life than his two OLDER BROTHERS.
YOU KNOW WHAT IM TALKING ABOUT DAD.
So why all this crap.
Why take MY family into the gutter even further.
I CANNOT TAKE THE STRESS FROM ALL OF THIS ORDEAL. NO-ONE CAN DEAL WITH THIS ANYMORE. MAYBE APART FROM YOU THAT IS.
I though you and Opal were happy together. If that were so, why not visit the kids once a year and take them all over Europe.
(God knows i wouldve loved that as a Kid) Let shaun and Antonia stay in sweden.
I Beseach you, think of what great things can be done if they were given the head start that sweden is offering them.
As the Americans say dont ask what your country can do for you, ask yourself what you can do for your country.
Well lets change it around to fit the situation…here it goes.
Are you ready??
Dont ask your children what they can do for you……
Ask yourself what you can do for your children?
Well your answer is LEAVE THEM BE IN SWEDEN IT IS WHERE THEY BELONG, AND ONE DAY THEY WILL BE BACK TO SEE ME.
AND IF YOU HAVENT HURT THE FAMILY TOO MUCH MAYBE YOU.
Well I Have Just Had My Say And If Any Of you Mis-informed Friends of My Father have an issue with what i have just written E-Mail me At…..
mushymike69@hotmail.com
Thanks everyone for putting up with my words, Im sorry i used so much space on the blog………..
The oldest son OUT.

Dear Michael
If You have anything worthy to contribute about your younger brother and sister I would suggest you actually contact me instead of lowering yourself to the maternal side of the family in a tirade of hysterical garbage.
You know how to contact me, I on the other hand have had to break off contact with you because of the diabolical circumstance of your maternal side dragging your girlfriend Kirsty into the matter, with yet again more lies for which you appear to take no umbrage.
Shaun and Antonia will always be worse off regardless of material trappings surrounding them if ethics, morals and values are non existent.
As a side issue, You should be made aware that your Grandmother in England is seriously ill in Hospital, She is suffering with Brain Hemorrhaging, perhaps you may wish to send her a card if it is not to much trouble.
I have always been open to co-operation with Shaun and Antonia, regrettably, your mother, her lawyer, and the bitterness of the Sinkinsons have prevented this.
My door is still open.
Although you may not recognize possibly due to immaturity or alienation, I say in closing I love all my children and have wanted a better outcome for you all, especially you, but your degenerative outcome is the result of influence maternally.
Your loving Father

To Paul,
I realize I may have been too harsh in my earlier comment, I realize now that the family court does tend to side with the maternal side of families and I apologize for breeching any Act with disclosing private court proceedings,
Again, my apologies, i was not thinking while I was writing.

Oh man Paul You make me sick to my stomach. They don’t give PFA’s out of a gumball machine. A abused woman and her children have to have valid proof of such abuse to obtain such an order. You knew you were not allowed to see your son. Yet you force him home and make him live in crap. Just to control your wife some more. You are a joke. A cruel and wicked man. You do not care for your children and never have or they would not be in this. And you would not still be torturing them. And to read what you say to your child on here. Man you are your manipulating children trying to use heart ache and pain against them and belittling them. You DO NOT LOVE YOUR CHILDREN! You are just some sick messed up human with nothing more to do in life but cause heartache and pain!! Your time will come. And to his Ex-Wife and Children Fight to the death! You need to get away from this sick pig!
