Are you planning to bring the case to the media in the US again? I think you should do this sometime soon… again and again.
Unfortunately, people tend to ‘forget’ and/or ‘leave behind’ way too soon the first impact of the story. Maybe I am wrong about this, at this instance….
We had so many people replying in the first month. I hope everyone is doing what they can to bring Sean home. I believe David has GREAT supporters, but I am fearing that some are not ‘plugged’ as they were once. I hope not.
David needs everyone’s help!!
**************
To board members:
If you are reading this and have done something, please let others know so we can continue to energize one another until Sean is home.
Anyway, I have sent over 70 emails and I am about to send emails to everyone in the above list (again anda again). So far, to my dislike, no one has replied. I am not going to stop here. Also, I am sure the contacts will not reply to every single email. I do hope they are receiving loads and loads more, they did receive thousands of emails at the early stage of this campaing. It is good to know that some of them replied to some of the supporters here. That gives us more hope as well.
Please, keep up with your good work out there and try to do what we can to have Sean spending again a Christmas (to say the LEAST) around his own daddy!
Hello,
I am a Brazilian dad and I was very saddened by your story. Unfortunately, a sad reality is that many divorced fathers here in Brazil also go through that (parental alienation). Even living here mother, father and children, in the same country, the Brazilian judicial favors the maternal family in most cases. And worst of all is the slowness of our judiciary.
Yout letter was published on a Brazilian Web site for parents who struggle to try to live with their children, looking for parental equality: http://www.pailegal.net (means “cool dad”, “nice dad”, and could be “legal dad” too), link: http://www.pailegal.net/chicus.asp?rvTextoId=1223657306
Here in Brazil we also fight to change this terrible situation, for example the recent approval of the Joint Custody law (Guarda Compartilhada) is a demonstration of that.
As a father you are, I know that your love for Sean is infinite, indescribable, so I give my congratulations to you and all your friends who support you.
Below, a small contribution to contacts with the press: more links of Rede Globo, for contact by mail and by phone.
I contacted them, but it is good that you forward to more people.
I hope you’re soon with your son. AND NEVER GIVE UP!!!
Good luck!
Hugs,
Lenhador
a Brazilian dad who would like Sean back home

MEDIA UPDATE: We were informed late last week that the family court judge in Rio issued an order prohibiting all press in Brazil from publishing any information in this case. Even opinion pieces are not allowed. Anyone who disobeys this order will be levied with a hefty fine, including journalists who have already published news on the case. Several Brazilian attorneys we have spoken to informed us that this order is both illegal and unconstitutional in Brazil. We hope the order is reversed soon.
We did receive this encouraging email earlier today from a supporter in Brazil.

Hello,
I am brazilian and I have been in touch with many Brazilian Journalists, they need one direct phone number to interview DAVID.
FENAJ is a Brazilian Federation for Journalists, and they are aware now about DAVID’S story and they are doing everything ” to break ” the ” LIMINAR CAUTELAR” that is protecting the ” Lins e Silva” family in Court.
They are now in a HUGE movement to cover the story.
Many journalists didn’t know the story until this last weekend, but we sent more then 1000 emails .
REDE GLOBO,has a huge coverage in BRAZIL , almost 90% of the brazilian watch JORNAL NACIONAL (JN), and they ( JN ) wrote me saying that they need to check the story and they are thinking how to put in the air…
A Brazilian blogger published an article about David’s plight today.
I won’t attempt to translate.
http://boxdeideias.blogspot.com/2008/10/cai-o-pano-bruna-bianchi-parte-ii.html
I received an e-mail message from a huge media outlet here in the U.S but was asked not to say anything until it is posted here. It is looking very promising though!
There are two major US Networks working on David’s story as we speak. Both would be significant additional coverage to the story at the national level and much more in depth than the Today Show segment that aired. We hope to report more developments soon.
I just saw this, very exciting news. I will be sure to tune in, please keep us informed.
It appears that a local Brazilian newspaper in Florida has published an article.

Here is a link to a group in Brazil that fights for Freedom of the press in Brazil. This particular page has links to a number of groups that are also concerned with freedom of the press

Hi!
Another news link (in Portuguese):
http://www.jusbrasil.com.br/noticias/114870/departamento-internacional-da-agu-move-acao-para-devolver-crianca-a-pai-americano
The Gazeta News story (in Portguese) that I linked to above seems to have moved from the website. I hope it hasn’t “disappeared.” If it has, I copied the article and can send it to anyone who wants to read it .
http://www.gazetanews.com/local_noticia.php?cd_noticia=8313
James,
can you email it to bringseanhome@yahoo.com and we’ll re-post it? We’ve got some calls in to Gazeta News to find out why their entire website is down. Hopefully it’s just a temporary glitch and they weren’t forced to retract the story.
It is back up. Must have been a glitch.
I keep reading places that David went to Brazil to see Sean… Is that true? Can anyone confirm how this is going? What are they doing to accomodate him?
Another Brazilian newspaper in New Jersey ran David’s story,
which came out Oct. 22-
