Dear President Bush,
Enclosed is an article published in the Little Rock Democrat Gazette regarding an interview by a forensic interviewer who is interrogating my 16 year old daughter Angela. I am also enclosing a DVD of this interview which will reveal the truth of what I am about to tell you. She had been kidnapped by the Dept.of Human Services and the FBI on Sept. 20, 2008, along with five other girls, on false allegations of child abuse. Angela’s thirteen year old brother Isaac and nineteen other children, including two nursing babies, were kidnapped on November 18, 2008. Since then ten other children have been kidnapped also on unproven false charges.
All these children ranging in age from fifteen months to seventeen years desperately want to come home to their loving parents. They are suffering the anguish of being cruelly separated from their Christian parents who had them in private Christian school. They were never abused in any way until the FBI kidnapped them in a militaristic raid with machine guns equipped with lasers pointed directly at them. They now suffer the mental anguish of separation from their loving parents who are allowed to visit them for one hour a week with a DHS worker in the visitation room, and the conversation is strictly monitored.
These children belong to families who live and work within the Tony Alamo Christian Ministries in Fouke, Ft. Smith, and Texarkana, AR. There has been an ongoing campaign of slander and lies against our pastor for over forty-four years now. They have kidnapped our children in an attempt to get them to lie against our pastor because they have no proof of their false allegations against him. Judge Jim Hudson also ordered us to leave the Tony Alamo Christian Ministries if we want to get our children back. He wants us to choose between our children and our church. Another judge has ordered that the DHS has the authority to kidnap another one hundred children who have fled with their parents to avoid being kidnapped. They are trying to destroy our church and our lives.
Dear President Bush, how can you allow this to go on in this country? Can’t you do something about this before you leave office? This is a last opportunity for you to be able to do something for God and man and children.
All this has come upon us because of false accusations against our pastor Tony Alamo who has not even gone to trial yet. I have known him for thirty-nine years. He won my soul from a life of sin when I was eighteen years old. I had just gotten released from prison in California for possession of marijuana when I came to his church in Hollywood and he preached the gospel to me. I became a Christian at that service and I have been a Christian and law-abiding citizen ever since. Pastor Alamo is a godly man, and all who live godly in Christ do suffer persecution. We at Tony Alamo Christian Ministries know that Pastor Alamo is innocent of these false allegations against him. We request that you do something that will bring our children home to us, and that will release our pastor from jail where he has been for more than three months.
You are a father to two beautiful daughters who love you very much, and you love them too. You understand the love a parent has for a child and we love our children so very much. Dear President Bush, please do something so that our children will be returned to us immediately, and that our pastor will be released from jail and exonerated from these lies.
Respectfully yours,
Debra Ondrisek
