Tanner's message on this:
The Issue

To Whom It May Concern,

My name is Tanner McMullen, a veteran who honorably served in the United States Air Force for five years. I'm writing to urgently request public assistance, legal intervention, and national attention to help protect my two children, who are only six and nine years old, from the systematic abuse, emotional manipulation, and complete parental alienation they are experiencing in Wayne County, West Virginia. This corrupt court system has enabled the mother of my kids to hide and alienate them for 3 years. It's gone on for too long, and the time has come for justice and fairness to be served for my kids, who don't get to speak for themselves. 
 
BACKGROUND
In 2021, I separated from the military and offered to support my ex-wife, Nora McMullen, and our children during our divorce. I secured a job in Charleston, SC, and offered to move Nora and the kids there, paying three months' rent in advance to help her get settled. Instead, she moved eight hours away to live with my mother, Laurie Wooten, in Huntington, West Virginia, despite having no prior ties to the state or the city.

What began as a co-parenting & visitation transition quickly evolved into a calculated campaign of alienation, aided by my mother, Laurie Wooten, and supported by the Wayne County Family Court system, particularly Judge Sean Maynard, who has presided over every family court case in the county since January 2017 and has remained in that public authority ever since.

 
EMOTIONAL ABUSE AND ISOLATION
My children are being emotionally and psychologically abused through extreme control and isolation: 

They are not allowed to watch television, have privacy or bedrooms of their own, & they've never been able to enjoy age-appropriate activities. Their mom demands that they stay under her watchful eye 24/7. 

Although they deeply desire it, they have no meaningful relationship with extended family members, including those who love and miss them dearly. In 2023, my terminally ill father, Deron McMullen, and my 92-year-old grandmother had to spend $3,000 in legal fees to gain minimal court-ordered visitation—just four hours every other Thursday. Nora made sure to alienate them both, other than this court-ordered time she was mandated to give them. This is while she lived 20 minutes away from them in Wayne County, WV.
