kidnapping? really?

Things had been going along with the standard bit of insanity that's involved when you deal with trolls. In June that was about to change. She had once again began the rant of 'I want paid in cash!'  This made even more sense when she received support the weekends Jay wasn't there. You know, it's VERY important to get cash on Friday evening that is supposed to be used to support your son when he's gone for the weekend. The weekend of June 18, 2010, she went crazy.  I had taken her a check, it was almost 7 so she attempted to go to the bank with her estranged husband hauling her ass there and back to get it cashed. It was Jays' scheduled weekend with us but she said he wasn't to leave until she had her cash. Visitation is not subject to support, so this was an invalid point and I was not waiting there after making the hour drive to pick him up.  Before she could return from what she termed 'a wild goose chase' with the perfectly valid check for $100.00 for that portion of June's support, I left with Jay to return to our house.  About 10 minutes later I get a text "u took my son without my permission...u have 5 minutes to get me my money or him back here or I have u arrested 4 kidnapping I have the custody papers and text proving he was told NOT to go" Apparently she feels she is above the courts decision. And don't you just love how the 'my money' part comes before the 'my son' part. She did call the Vandergrift Police Department on me. They called my cell phone while we were still on our way back home. They asked about what had happened. I told them it was his scheduled weekend and she refused to let him go unless we gave her cash for support. They tried another approach, they said it's supposed to be a custodial exchange between the parents. I told them I had been providing the transportation for several months and that his father was at work and unable to accompany me. They then asked for my full name. When I gave them my first and last name, they said, oh, you are his stepmother, I have no idea who she told them kidnapped her son. The police then asked to talk to Jay, he told them the same thing, that it was his weekend to come and that there was no where in the custody agreement that said she had to be paid in cash.  The cops decided there was nothing illegal about what had happened and dropped the issue. She was still in the bat-shit crazy mode so of course it wasn't over..........and then it went to facebook.
