GUILTY TX - Samuel Olson, 5, found deceased, Houston, 27 May 2021 *ARRESTS* #3

A Look at Sarah Olson's Fight for Her Son Samuel Before His Death. Does anyone know if Dalton,etal will face charges for custodial interference? They should. MOO
Not likely -- these issues are civil matters that are notoriously difficult to enforce -- let alone litigate. Nonetheless, there's no evidence Dalton was involved in the death of his son-- I think he was likely a victim of Balboa too.

From OP's quoted link:

Custody disputes are particularly hard to resolve because enforcing a judicial ruling is sometimes impossible, she said. "It is tough," Allred said. "Because what is the point of a court order, if only the judge can enforce it?"

The Houston Police Department does not enforce custody orders. "It is a civil matter," department spokesman Victor Sendies told Inside Edition Digital. "Anything civil, we don't enforce those. It has to go through the court system."

I'm just so angry about it. If Dalton didn't leave him with her where he didn't belong his little life wouldn't have been snuffed out. I didn't buy what he was selling in his interviews he gave. He etal should not get away with violating a court order. It's so messed up. MOO

Okay - this says trial is next - but I really do not think it is next. I shall wait & see what it says in a few days. Not much info on this county....
 
I've not pulled the docket for Rivera since last July 2022 and don't know why this defendant hasn't settled already! Probably because he's not sitting in jail.

He's only had one court appearance in 2023 and appears his bond release conditions were amended on 10/24/23.
