The custody dispute between a German steakhouse heiress and her former husband took an unexpected turn over the weekend when their youngest children were abducted while celebrating New Year’s with their father in Denmark, local authorities said.

Christina Block’s two children — 13-year-old Klara and Theodor, 10 — were watching fireworks with their father, Block’s ex-husband Stephan Hensel, at a cafe in Gravenstein around 12:15 a.m. Monday when a group of men attacked, Bild newspaper reported.

The men knocked Hensel down and forced the children into a car before speeding away in two separate vehicles, the outlet said, citing Danish police.

“The kidnapping may be tied to the custody dispute, Danish police told Bild.”

Or it could be cultural enrichers needing wives.

Yup. My first thought: The father did it. (I watch too much Investigation Discovery and Oxygen.)

German steakhouse heiress

Help me out here.

I suspected immediately that the kids are a couple of brats, but that's 'steakhouse heiress', not 'sausage king'.

The custody dispute between a German steakhouse heiress

Is it a German steakhouse or a restaurant that sells German steaks? Answered later in the article.

Block, 49, is the daughter of German entrepreneur Eugen Block, whose Hamburg-based empire includes the popular Block House steakhouse chain.

Morton’s it is not. A rather ordinary looking meal. It is also not a very large chain with just 56 restaurants.

As to the speculation that he kidnapped the children, he watching fireworks with the children. Two cars bearing German plates. So it is more likely the wife who engineered this.

I am also guilty as charged in this regard.

I recently saw the documentaries about the Pam Hupp thing for the first time. That is officially the craziest thing I have ever seen.

From the article in post 9.

She expressed her thanks for the countless good wishes. “The children are well. I ask for your understanding that I am not making any further statements at this time, primarily out of concern for the welfare of my children,” the spokesperson said in the statement.

I would think more concern with the fact she has admitted to a criminal act.

The father was awarded custody be a court so she has committed several crimes at this point.

I would hate be the fall guys who helped with the abduction.

Just insanity. An innocet man paid for the ignorance and coruption with 12 years in prison.

His defense attorney wrote a book about it: Bone Deep: Untangling the Betsy Faria Murder Case

I’ll have to read that book. Now that Ann Rule is dead, I have to find other true crime authors.
