The search is on for a 7-year-old Canadian girl whose mom says the child’s father absconded with the child to keep her from being vaccinated against COVID-19.
Educational assistant Mariecar Jackson tells the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation that her ex-husband, Michael Jackson, is keeping their unvaccinated daughter in an undisclosed location so she can’t be inoculated.
“She’s only seven,” the worried mom said. “She needs to be home.”
Jackson said her ex-husband, who has joint custody of the girl, was supposed to have returned the second-grader to her mother’s custody nearly two months ago and did not. She last spoke to the girl by phone on Nov. 21. Saskatchewan judges have issued court orders demanding the child be returned to her mother, to no avail so far. Authorities went to the girl’s father’s home in Carievale, in Saskatchewan, but no one was there.
The CBC reported that Michael Jackson appeared on a web program called “Live with Laura-Lynn,” where host Laura-Lynn Tyler Thompson, formerly of “The 700 Club Canada,” supported the disappearing dad’s decision. The little girl was put in front of the camera to deliver a statement.
“It can change your DNA,” the child said. “I don’t believe God wants me to. And it can make you sick and kill you.”
Tyler-Thompson praised the girl for knowing “a little bit about what’s going on” and called her “So cute!”
The Western Standard reports the child’s name is Sarah.
A lawyer for the missing girl’s mom said, “We’ve never seen anything quite like this.”
A tearful Jackson told the CBC she has a message for her little girl.
“Mommy will never stop looking for you,” she said. “Every day, I pray that someday you’ll be home. I love you so much. Mommy is standing strong and someday we will be together.”
