Web Site Garners Support for Birth Mother Charged With Kidnapping

More supporters are rallying around a birth mother charged with kidnapping her 18-month-old twins from their adoptive parents.

AllisonQuets.com is now devoted to the Allison Quets case. Also, a petition with nearly 800 signatures asks the Canadian and United States governments to grant her custody of the children she conceived through in-vitro fertilization.

Quets, 49, of Jacksonville, Fla., faces federal charges of international kidnapping after she failed to return Holly and Tyler Quets to Denise and Kevin Needham after a court-approved visit in December.

A Wake County judge denied bond Friday, and Quets continues to be held at the Wake County Jail, where she has been since early this month.

RandD - I have a two-fold interest in this case - I am adopted and a biological mother. Yes, I regretted giving up my child - but I recognized that the baby's best interest was with her parents, not with me. Adopted children are not by paper but by love and that is a heckuva lot better than the cold-hearted snatching "poor, wretched" (in my mind nuttier-than-a fruitcake) Quets. I also think WRAL is showing a bit of bias with that oh-so-sweet view of her holding babies that she has already given to parents who are stable, loving and interested only in their children's welfare. Unlike the selfish, manipulative person who supposedly loves her children - it's all about control. She can't stand it that she doesn't have her fingers in every pie so she snatches the babies from the only home they've ever known and takes them out of the country. Oh, that is love. NOT!

the lady took the kids, keep her in jail so we can feed and house her for a few years.... more of our $$ going down da drain

Well said RandDFerguson.

Let us all forget about birth parents, adopted parents, etc.

Let us look at the circumstances of each family and determine 1-Who has the best interests of these babies at heart 2-Who can provide the most stable life to these babies

vickiej40- you are one cold, heartless bi... What kind of person says that a parent is not someone who just wants a child? You don't have a clue and god forbid anything ever kept you from having a child. People like you don't deserve children, adopted or not. You go pomermedic!

So, according to some, we're supposed to forget the legal documents she signed, shrug our shoulders at the laws she has broken and do what? Let her take the children she gave up back? Oh, that's typical of a whiney liberal mindset. Laws are only for others you don't agree with? It's bad enough we have a judicial system we can't trust, but with mindsets like that we have juries that can't be trusted either!
