CEDAR SPRINGS, Mich. A 33-year-old man's decision to run away with a 15-year-old Amish girl has left his family nearly destitute.
Julissa Jaimes says she and the couple's four children are unsure of their future as her husband, Osvaldo, sits in a Mexican jail awaiting possible extradition to Michigan.
Michigan authorities say he planned to marry the teenager. The Cedar Springs resident was arrested Monday trying to enter Mexico at the Laredo, Texas, border with the girl who was listed as a runaway.
"I'm just waiting for an eviction notice or a shut-off notice so the FIA (Family Independence Agency) can help me," Julissa Jaimes told The Daily News of Greenville for a story Thursday.
"He was very controlling, and he never let me work or nothing. I'm broken. This is very tough on me."
Osvaldo Jaimes and the teenager left her family's Montcalm County farm, about 30 miles northeast of Grand Rapids, on Feb. 24.
The girl is expected to be questioned by police when she returns to Michigan.
Charges against Osvaldo Jaimes will depend on what happened while they were together, police told the newspaper. A report eventually will be given to the Montcalm County prosecutor.
Osvaldo Jaimes rented space on the teen's family farm where he built crates for a local fruit farmer.

That's the problem with welfare. They don't want this woman to help herself. Instead they encourage her to let her bills go.

The Cedar Springs resident was arrested Monday trying to enter Mexico at the Laredo, Texas, border with the girl who was listed as a runaway.That makes no sense. If he was at the Texas border then he wouldn't be in a Mexican prison. Perhaps the reporter meant Nuevo Laredo, Mexico instead.
As for the wife and kids. Can you say say welfare?

Julissa Jaimes, 27, said the couple's four children, ages 7, 8, 10 and 11, are U.S. citizens.Of course they are....
Her cousin, Norma Vela, says Julissa was 15 when she married Osvaldo Jaimes.
Ahh so he's done this before and he was 21, why wasn't statuatory rape filed then?
"Who's going to help her? She doesn't have an education. How far is she going to get," Vela told
Apparently shes "educated" enough to know that she must default on all her bills then the state will take care of her.....too bad the state wasn't present when SHE was taken at 15.

Charges against Osvaldo Jaimes will depend on what happened while they were together, police told the newspaper.
a) He let a kid without driver's liscense drive his car.
b) They threw Taco Wrappers out of their car window, violating littering laws.
c) Changed lanes without giving turn signals.
d) Stole Towels and soap from Motel they stayed in.
Hmmmmm....am I forgetting something?

The most interesting parts of this story are the facts not reported;
I had to read it twice...if i got this right.
This guy was 18 when he married his wife who at that time was 15. Over the years they had four children
Now at the age of 33 he rented land on some guys property and begins a relationship with the owners 15 y/o daughter.
He then runs away with said daughter to Mexico leaving his family behind
oh that was easy enough. i had a long day. glad the daughter is home safe.

This morning I had some time to watch the rabbits in my yard. They are chowing down on the shrubs this winter like never before. So I spotted one of the animals, and in a minute a couple more showed up chasing each other. They were obviously close friends. This is what it is like in the animal world. Don’t know, just a pointless mental association with this article, since human behavior is soo different.

Another heart-warming tale of family values that Jorge, our Presidente, should have emailed to the White House. In Mexico, girls are chaperoned everywhere to keep the Latin lovers at bay.
That we are stupid enough to let this trash into the U.S. is unbelievable.

Man Leaves Wife, Kids to Run Away With Amish Teen
++++++++++++++++++++++
The wife must be quite unfit. First the man leaves her and then the kids run away with their Amish teen friends.
I love just scanning the headlines. You get a completely different perspective of what the news is.

Sir - how totally non-politically correct of you. You wouldn’t be one of those ‘Republican Reptiles’ would you?
Have you no respect for other cultures?
Write “Diversity is our strength” 25 times and keep the pages against the possibility of the HillaBeast’s minions raiding you some dark and stormy night.

I resent your use of a metric against which Almighty God must be considered a pedophile for his impregnation of Mary.
