The Disturbing Case of Dylan Redwine

In the town of Durango lived the Redwine family, yet after a not-very-amicable divorce, Dylan would be forced to spent time with his dad, Mark Redwine, back in the middle of nowhere Colorado. Dylan Redwine would go missing from one of these trips in 2012, and speculation would go on for years, leading to pictures Mark had he wouldn't want others to see.

When a child expresses fear of a parent or person the court should listen and not allow that child or children to be around them, especially alone.

[@auburnanger6679]

Well that was bizarre and disturbing.

[@221BBakerStreet]

@@dukkookim8910 I'm sorry but that's just bullshit. What Mark Redwine was doing is not in itself illegal but it does point to mental health issues or at the very least poor judgement on behalf of the parent and an unhealthy environment for a child to be in. ANY judge, wouldn't matter where they're from, would have been rightly revolted at those photos and would automatically decide it wouldn't be appropriate to leave a child in the care of someone with those type of deviant tendencies.

[@JME1186]

​@@dukkookim8910 We don't kink shame in America? Are you joking or being serious? Are you referring to the government specifically, or the people? Because compared to countries in Europe we are more sanctimonious and judgmental about sex than just about any other so-called First World nation. We enjoy plenty of freedoms many others do not, let me me be clear. But you using the USA as an example of a society that does not kinkshame is disingenuous at best and outright lying at worst. Hell, many folks right now feel that homosexuality is effectively just a fetish and there's not just shaming of that community in the US, there's an active movement to deny them their rights.

As a teacher for 20y. In my experience, teen boys tend to downplay emotions like fear or vulnerability by instinct. So if this young man, who seemed very low key by nature, expressed to mult parties he actually FEARED that man, and he *still* had to be alone w him, then we've failed him horrendously.

[@Anna-Rose-]

I know this comment is old, but it reminds me of Collier Landry. He was 11 (I think) when he hears his father murder his mother. Collier has his own KZbin channel. I remember hearing about that case many years ago. He now tells the story of that night and it's horrifying. Just after his mother's murder, his "father" wanted to take him on vacation. Collier knew his father intended to kill him, and thankfully an officer listened to him.

[@DresdenShuffle]

@@vaprhap9492 If the child says he’s afraid of the parent then you should listen to the child. Don’t care what parent it is, if the kid shows genuine fear then they shouldn’t be forced to see them. The kid is a person, not a pencil you’re sharing between people.

[@DresdenShuffle]

@Joy Back Children aren’t good enough actors to show genuine fear if they’re being forced to say it about one parent by another parent. CPS should do a thorough investigation of the claims, speak to the child, both parents, others involved etc then go from there. Also saying grow up to people for wanting a government organisation known for failing children many times to be held accountable and do better for said children says a lot about you.

CPS told my ex to go the following day and take a drug test. He didn't, instead got on a plane and kidnapped my boys and went across the US with them. Took me over a month to get them back. It was horrible.

[@jacksonbow2766]

​@Michelle-zl7tu sounds awful hope all the children are fine now but may I ask, how does one 'kidnap' their own children?

[@sallyh.6362]

I once witnessed a hearing in family court where the mom wanted a psychologist to interview the child re why she didn't want to see her dad and report to the court. The child was 6 or 7. The dad wanted an order that if the child doesn't arrive on time for his already awarded visitation time that he can send the police to collect and deliver the child to him. The mothers lawyer said that when it was time to go see her dad the child would scream and hide in her closet holding it shut to avoid going and it put mom in an awkward position. Without asking any follow up questions the judge denied the request for a court psychologist to interview the child (which is the only way a child's opinion can get into the court record in Canada where I live- a parent can't testify as to a child's feelings and neither can the (young) child). The judge then denied the dad's request for the police pickup. Instead he said "the pickup location will be changed to the child's school, then when dad comes there will be no closet for her to lock herself in." Banged the gavel and that was it. I learned how careful I needed to be moving forward in what I did or didn't ask the court for. How little time a judge would take assessing a situation before making a totally binding and incredibly significant decision about a child's life.

[@SR-lr7he]

A lot of times in Canada when one parent requests psychological assessment of the children, they're accused of trying to turn the kids against the other parent too. AND even if one parent has been abusive towards the other, the courts will often say that doesn't mean they'll abuse the kids and orders visitation anyway. It's maddening.

[@lisahinton9682]

@Sally H. Wow, that's horrific. Something is going on there - a kid who just is comfy at Mom's and doesn't want to stop watching her favorite TV show might grumble, but they won't have an extreme reaction when it's time to go to Dad's. This is haunting - I do hope the little girl is okay.

[@mrs.h2725]

Agreed. There's so many cases like this when a child is adamant that they do not want to go with one of their parents due to abuse they suffered by them, but the courts will force them to. I've even seen a case where a judge told a young teen boy and his younger sibling that he'd put them in jail if they refused to go to their father cuz the judge was convinced that the mother had brainwashed them. Even if that's the case, its insane to threaten to punish the child or even force them to go to their father. Order counseling, and then go by the counselor's assessment.

[@sarah2.017]

@@mrs.h2725 My parents had a friend who died a few years ago. They would always say, when talking about him, "He and his wife divorced when their 4 kids were teenagers, and he hasn't seen them since because their mother turned them against him."

[@kittyroars8758]

Not sure what the laws are in the States but here in the UK, I'm pretty sure that once a child reaches 11yrs old, they have a say in which parent they can live with (provided said parent is safe etc) and if/when or how they spend time with them. Ignoring a child's needs and feelings in the cases of custody/divorce is just so wrong. More must be done to protect our children and give them a voice. Children are usually spot-on in their judgements of adults. They have a sixth-sense when someone is "off".

[@stevebuffinton1094]

I'd been in the Air Force for about two years when I heard my little brother had been put in a foster home. Dad was an over the road truck driver, step mom said my brother was to unruly and off he went. I was disgusted by it. Then I hear he ran away from the foster home and it was about two months before he was found, thankfully. The Air Force fed us very well, great chow halls. Every meal I went to I felt so guilty eating, not knowing if my little brother was eating or hungry under a bridge somewhere or worse. It was an awful feeling. Thankfully he was grabbed by the police in Austin Minnesota and seeing how I was stationed in Nebraska I spoke to my leadership and was allowed to go pick him up. I immediately left upon gaining permission and did just that. I know from experience how Dylans mother felt, fortunately my little brother was safe. But man the story he told me about the foster home he stayed in, which was more like a group home, infuriated me as much as finding out he'd been sent to one. I dont blame him at all for running away from it. 25 years later and I still am pissed off that that had happened to him. And to anyone who has some pull in the foster care system who might be reading this, you folks need to get right by these kids. Much, much more oversight is necessary. No excuses, if you're not willing to sacrifice your time, money or lazy lifestyle then get another job. You better learn the meaning of altruistic because if your anything other than altruistic you're in the wrong profession. Lifes already kicking these kids in the ass, the last thing they need is a system that could care less about them.

The way he said, "I can imagine how it feels to a mom when her child goes missing" is the REDDEST FLAG I've ever seen on video. He gets back at her for divorcing him by thriving on how she would feel now. And his shit eating was sure a reason for the divorce, too.

I keep trying to point this out: In Colorado, after about age 12, the court will ask the kid what they want to do. It was my experience growing up, and I looked it up and saw it hasn't changed. If Dylan said he didn't want to go, even if there was an order, it could easily have been revisited and it would only have served to make it official that Dylan didn't have to go, especially considering the pictures and Mark's clear judgment issues. This didn't have to happen. And while I don't blame the mother, I do wonder why she made Dylan go
