The initial search for Jennifer Dejongh focused on a “missing” Lincoln Aviator. Up until this morning the sheriff’s department was still teling reporters that they were on the lookout for the car. Our sister paper even ran a story with the information.
Just one problem. The Aviator pictured here is the “missing” Aviator. It’s been parked in a Whittier driveway since Sunday. Ace reporter Jen McLain snapped this photo Tuesday morning.
Wenesday morning ace reporter Tania Chatila was chatting with deputies at Sheriff’s Headquarters Bureau and this is her report of the exchange:
Okay, so I called about 7:30 – 7:45 this morning to see if there were any updates on the Miller case. I s/w a Deputy Oscar Butao who at the time told me that there was no new information and that police were still searching for the children, the mother and the car.
I asked him what car? And he said a black Lincoln Aviator license plate 5JAT330.
I got off the phone, wrote up the web update but left out the car information because I remembered the photo. Eddie called, I told him about it and he told me to call back and ask. When I did, Butao said something along the lines of “Oh, they recovered the vehicle?” He said he would check up on it. He called me back and basically said that the information was on an old, initial alert and that it was no longer valid. He said there was no new car information.
Doofs!!!!
Someone should contact Gloria Alread who is such an advocate of what is right and help Jennifer protect her children (whoever she hired was not ready to deal with a Congressman). Mrs Alread has the same if not more political pull and money as the Congress Man. Jennifer has to be so terrified to do what is being asked of her. I admire her new husband for standing by her. I am sure as an insider he knows more than we do.
For the people who wrote about knowing her in High School, I cannot stress enough that most humans mature from the age of 16-18 to 30yrs….also becoming a mother makes you a totally different person.
If you don’t believe the father is capable of domestic, physical and sexual abuse……how do you explain the fact he pleaded to domestic violence I am sure at the time he know that seriousness of doing such thing, his father had money and was knowledgeable to he must of had some sort of legal advise before doing so. There is also a therapist, who has reported him, I am very doubtful someone would put that information out there is it wasn’t true.
Now after a child gets a black eye, one accused dad of sexual misconduct why would a judge allow them to go stay with the parents of the person this children fear and act out against. The father will have total access to them. If something does happen to them the Congressman and his wife will not seek help for the kids.
I am sure that Judge is in some form connected with the Congressman…..this is more than someone scratching someone’s back. This is child abuse at it’s best. If all a child know it’s mom, why would you just ripped them from all they know…..that can be extremely physiological damaging. If indeed they are in counseling wouldnt’ being taken from their daily environment be even more detrimental. This is logical.

I have known the Miller and the Lopez families for over 20 years. Close enough to have attended the baby shower for the eldest of Brian and Jennifer. They were so happy and madly in love and excited about the pregnancy and that they would be married within the year.
Because someone is accused of something, does not mean they are guilty of it. Okay, so Brian is no saint. He admitted it and paid his dues. That does not make him guilty of charges made by a woman who became embittered because he did not marry her or treat her the way she had every reason to expect.
What I know of the courts and how they view children is that the best interest of the children is what comes first and foremost. They could care less if someone has money or power.
Those children deserve to be in school. They deserve to be able to access medical and psychological services. They deserve to live in the open.
Jennifer needs to bring those children back safely and quickly.
Lydia why don’t you seek help for your family.You seem to need Psychological help!
