Nesconset ex-marine arraigned on kidnapping charges

[who knows]

I'm not either carol or beth.....however I find it interesting that you can hide behind a screen name as we all do and yet not reveal your own. If it were either of them...they would obviously know the things you claim to be true about her. You need to make up your mind I Do Know. You keep stating all sorts of accusations you say you were told and then say that if we knew her all her life we would know these things. If that were as true as you believe how could I be either of the people you claim. Believe me there are a lot more people that know and care for that family than you have ever known. I don't think it's right for you to be on this site abusing people and calling names because they don't agree with you. You have a right to protect Michael, others have the right to state how they feel. You don't have the moral right to drag other people into this because it suits your angle. If you feel so justified stop hiding and reveal yourself. As so many others have stated....this is really not the site for those of you who care so deeply for Michael.If the things stated here bother you so much....why return? This case is over...No matter how you slice it, there is not one justifiable reason for him to have KIDNAPPED that child! You can blame the world if you want, but it will always be Michael Burhardt's fault! Not his ex- wife's, not his parent's, not society, his and his alone.I agree with JJJ....this site has taken a disgusting turn....I'm done and moving on too. It is 3 days until Christmas...time to be in spirit. It obviously isn't here.

I wanted to see who at this company can help me. There is a message board thats is on your site with the address below. I want this message board removed. It does not serve any purpose any more. Here is the story. There was an article posted about a person who was just convicted of 2nd degree kidnapping of a 10 year old girl on Long Island New York. There are some very bad things happening on this board that I feel will cause more harm then good. It appears that family members from all sides are very emtionally devistated by this and are using this board to blame other and channel thier frustration on to eachother. At this point, they have lost the sense of respect and self control and something needs to be done about this. I had had convesation with the right people and they are watching this board already. This case is over, so it is time for this board to end. I am afraid for people involved and think that this course of action is warrented in this case. Please close this board. Emails about this board have been sent to Chris Tolles: CEO and district attorney about the messsages on this board and the request for its closure..

I can hide behind my screen name because you can too, and so can a million other people on these blogs. I was told and I have seen and I am presenting the other side. The one no one knows except the people that saw it happen. If you check the visitor's log at the asylum, you will only see Michael's family going to see her. Oh, but she was so close to her mother that she didn't want to even talk to her. I am not family nor did I go see her so don't try blaming Mike's family because you don't want to hear the truth. It is fair. You people say rotten things all year and now when I come on, you don't like it. Tough! There are alot more people that care for Michael's family, too, but did that stop everyone from writing trash and calling names. You don't have the morale right of dragging Michael's family into this, nor to keep it going for a year. The ex-wife and her mother are whackadoos. Let them find someone else to control and ruin their life. And P.S.- I heard she's already shacked up with another "poor slob". If you don't want to hear the truth, stay off the site. It's the free speech act. You exercised it for a year. How did you like it? Big Mouth. You're getting coal in your stocking.

One more thing, can someone plz tell me the real story ! does anyone really know what happend ?

The way I see it there are numerous victims in this case...the little girl is first and foremost. Michaels wife- regarless if she is sane or not really doesnt matter! She is not responsible for Michaels actions. And Michaels family and friends! They are not responsible for anything he did as a child...as a teenager or now! There was nothing that anyone could have done to prevent any of this from happening other than Michael!
And as far as Michael- there has to be some good qualities in him that made his wife fall in love with him...Make his parents weep for him and his friends care for him. Regardless of what he has done- he made a choice that day- it was a bad choice to grab that little girl, but let us also remember that he then also made the right choice by letting her go- we all are aware of the outcome had he not! So, why dont everyone be thankful that he did make that choice and realize that he gave that littlr girl a second chance and cut Michael a litle slack- he did do the right thing in the end. And to think that his parents shouldn't defend him is crazy- he is their son, and to read what some people say or write about him has to be heart breaking!
As far as the wifes family & friends- People who live in glass houses should never throw stones!
We all know to well, that all families have their own problems! Perhaps spending more time on yours and less on this, will start the new year off right!
Everyine involved here is hurting or angry, but lets not forget that each also has had family/ friends turn their backs on you /michael/and michael's wife-for all of this and how it has made you feel! It is time to let it go!
Deal with it- Happy Holidays!

Feliz Navidad and Amen.

You know what I think is interesting is that Mexico can find a trained killing machine Marine in a week but cant seem to ever put there hands on a kidnapped victim or kidnapper in Mexico. Regardless of how many years its been taking place. Why is all of this so one sided? I see Mexicans and Mexico getting to break laws all the time and walking but Americans get punished on both sides to the extremes? Talk about a one sided affair. And now there trying to get us to pay for all the people who have came here illegaly and give them benifits and health care? What the heck is that all about?? "Ask not what your country can do for you but what you can do for your country".... I think they were all absent on that day of class.

Michael Burkhardt should burn in hell!

Sad in Selden is an idiot! Your comment that he gave the girl a second chance is absurd!! Gave her a chance, what is wrong with you. Do you even see what you write? We should all be grateful that he gave her a second chance. How about he's lucky to be in jail right now, cut him a little slack... how about cut his little d*ck off!

Well hopefully him being in Attica will let that little girl and her family sleep better at night.

No doubt this US Marine is a seriously sick and disturbed man who requires extensive therapy.

what did Lance Corporal Joseph Ventimiglia do??
