#3 I love people with unusual names.

Ready...set...Google!

Hit 1: Abducted children want to go back home. Summary: Ronald Allen Grecula of (unspecified), Pennsylvania abducted his two kids after Thanksgiving and took them to live in Malta. Second links says one of those damned "Have you seen me?" cards led to their recovery.

Hit 2: Google cache only, bottom item:

On July 24 [2000, I think], Ronald Allen Grecula, Saylorsburg, had assembled a cassette tape recorder to record the telephone conversations of Monique Brecula and Manuel Mireles, Bushkill, without the consent or knowledge of victims. Charges to be filed at District Justice Jolana Krawitz's office include: interception, disclosure or use of wire, electronic or oral communications, (Felony 3); possession, sale, distribution, manufacture or advertisement of electronic, mechanical or other devices, (Felony 3); possession of instruments of a crime, (misdemeanor 1), according to PSP Lehighton.

Monique's the ex.

#6 Thanks for the info, Angie.

I'd be interested in knowing how he got the kids out of the country. It was my understanding that a parent had to have written permission from the other parent to fly alone with minor kids (due to many parental kidnappings). Maybe I was wrong.

#7 Barbara, as long as the permission letter looks real -- and we discovered the hard way that it has to be notarized, too, but in the end no flights were missed -- the documenent isn't likely to be questioned. But I imagine R.A.G. is on a watch list, now.
