ava grace baldwin father believes daughter hidden by her mother

Newburgh Heights Police Chief John Majoy weighs in on reports more than 1,000 children have gone missing in northern Ohio on 'Sunday Night In America.' The father of a Texas girl, who disappeared from San Antonio in September 2015 when she was 6 years old, believes his ex-wife of just 34 days is hiding her. David Hopper and Kathryn "Katie" Baldwin were married for just 34 days before they decided to split. He only learned during divorce proceedings that she was pregnant with their daughter, Ava Grace Baldwin, who is now 14 years old. "I met her at a recovery group called Celebrate Recovery. And she had a great story — come to find out it wasn't true," Hopper, who lives in Oklahoma, told Fox News Digital.

They had a whirlwind courtship followed by a small marriage shortly after meeting, only to file for divorce just over a month later. It was during the separation process that Baldwin said she was pregnant, but she apparently claimed Hopper was not the father. A court-ordered DNA test would prove otherwise. The dad of a girl who vanished from school seven years ago has sensationally claimed the mum he was married to for 34 is hiding their daughter - and she doesn't know. Ava Grace Baldwin, now 14, went missing when she was six years old, after she failed to turn up to her Oklahoma elementary school in September 2015 for 21 days. Dad David Hopper was stunned to learn his "perfect little girl" hadn't been attending school as at the time Ava was living with her her mum and David's ex, Kathryn Baldwin, in San Antonio,...

Authorities believed at the time Ava was taken by her mum after the home address she put down for the pair was an empty plot of land. Kathryn's Ford Escape was found dumped in a park in April 2016, which was just seven months after she and Ava disappeared.

David only ended up getting partial custody of Ava during the $45,000 battle and would drive hours to pick her up for summer holidays. Tina Fullbright, Ava’s aunt, said: "It's hard to watch my brother go through this.

This is his only child. That's all he's ever wanted, a family, and he deserves to have his daughter in his life." (NewsNation) — The last time Ava Grace Baldwin's father saw her, she was 6 years old. Eight years later, he believes his ex-wife took Ava and has been hiding her for years and thinks his daughter may not even know she's a missing person. Ava was reported missing from her elementary school, having not shown up for nearly three weeks when the school contacted her father. Police think her mother took her and Ava's father has been on an eight-year quest to find her.

David Hopper got the call from his daughter's elementary school in September 2015. Ava hadn't been in class for 21 days and the school wanted to know if he knew where she was. Ava and her mother, Kathryn Baldwin, lived in San Antonio, Texas while Hopper lived in central Oklahoma, a seven-hour drive away. Ava was born to the couple after a 34-day marriage. When the school contacted him, Hopper called the San Antonio police to report 6-year-old Ava missing. What police found surprised them.

In a heart-wrenching tale of a father’s search for his missing daughter, David Hopper, an Oklahoma resident, believes his ex-wife, Kathryn “Katie” Baldwin, has been hiding their daughter, Ava Grace Baldwin, since her disappearance... Hopper and Baldwin’s marriage was short-lived, lasting only 34 days, during which Hopper discovered that Baldwin was pregnant with Ava. The couple met at a recovery group called Celebrate Recovery, and their relationship quickly escalated to marriage. However, the marriage was short-lived, and during the divorce proceedings, Baldwin revealed her pregnancy. Initially, she claimed that Hopper was not the father, but a court-ordered DNA test proved otherwise. Despite their separation, the pair planned to raise Ava together.

However, after Ava’s birth, Baldwin relocated to San Antonio and would often disappear for days without contacting Hopper. The first time she went missing, Hopper’s sister found Baldwin’s MySpace profile and managed to contact her through the social media platform. A complex custody battle ensued between the states of Oklahoma and Texas, with Hopper hiring multiple lawyers and spending a significant amount of money on legal and travel-related costs. He was granted partial custody of Ava in May 2013 and full custody in July 2017, two years after Ava was reported missing. Ava was attending a private school in San Antonio when she vanished eight years ago. The school’s principal contacted Hopper to inform him that Ava had been missing for 21 days, prompting him to officially report her disappearance on September 17, 2015.

When the police visited the address listed as Ava’s home on her school forms, they found an empty lot. Hopper suspects that Baldwin, fearing he would gain full custody of Ava, fled with their daughter.
