The deranged Utah mom who allegedly kidnapped her four young children and absconded to Europe with them, believing the “end times” were coming left a peculiar “to-do list” behind, seemingly as a reminder to help cover her tracks.
Kendall Seymour, the father of three of the children Elleshia Anne Seymour is accused of abducting, wrote in a GoFundMe that his ex-wife forged passport documents for the youngsters and left two ominous notes at home.
One was a “delusional message from God promising her she would be in Italy by Christmas,” and the other was a to-do list.
The items on that list, according to Kendall Seymour:
- Shred paperwork
- Destroy identifying photos
- Throw away phone
- Purchase pre-paid phone
Ellishia Seymour bundled her kids onto a a one-way Delta Airlines flight from Salt Lake City to Croatia on Nov. 30, authorities said.
The Utah Department of Public Safety issued an endangered and missing advisory on Dec. 10 for Landon Hal Seymour, 11; Levi Parker Seymour, 8; Hazel Rae Seymour, 7; and Jacob Kurt Brady, 3, a child Elleshia had with another man.
Elleshia has been charged with four counts of custodial interference — a third-degree felony — according to the Utah State Legislature.
A temporary emergency protective order and no-bail arrest warrant have also been issued.
Currently the FBI and local police are investigating the case, and Kendall says he hopes the state warrant becomes a federal warrant, which would allow INTERPOL to issue an arrest warrant for the mother.
Kendall said he started the fundraiser so he can fly to Europe to pick up the children, hoping to “minimize the trauma” they’ve experienced once his ex-wife is arrested.
“Any funds received in excess of flight costs will go towards therapy needed because of this traumatic experience,” the GoFundMe read. “My genuine hope is that the kids are found quickly, and we can pick them up while they still think they’re on a vacation.”
Neither the children nor their mother have been located as of Sunday afternoon.
