David Took Sean to DisneyWorld, Florida: He is Trying to Make Up For Lost Time in Brazil; Silvana Bianchi Is Mad at Brazilian Court
What is a father to do? After all, he has not seen his son for so many years. He has so many things to teach him and show him. So many trips to go on. So much catch up.
Let us give them their privacy as they are about to embark on a relearning experience.
Starting Tomorrow morning, David and Sean will be featured on NBC shows such as Today and potentially Dateline during the week.
The networks are trying to get whatever NBC leaks out. CBS took another angle. They have been interviewing Sean's grandparents.
So far, Silvana Bianchi is not too happy with the Brazilian court. She wants to keep fighting.
"Silvana Bianchi, the grandmother of Sean Goldman, the 9-year-old American boy who was taken to Brazil by his mother when he was 4 and who was returned to the United States, this Christmas Eve, met the press in Rio, on Christmas day, to talk about the departure of her grandson.
Bianchi, who had sent an open letter to Brazilian president Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva asking that Sean be heard by the courts so that he could tell the judge if he wished to stay in Brazil or live with his father in the US, once again criticized the decision of the Supreme Court that ordered the immediate handover of the boy to his American father. ..."

Sean's Mother: Born Bruna Bianchi, Became Bruna Bianchi Goldman Through 1st Marrirage and Died Bruna Bianchi Goldman Silva
Bruna Bianchi Goldman with friend in Picture!
Bruna Bianchi (Goldman) reportedly died in childbirth on August 22, 2008, four years after taking her then 4-year old son Sean from the U.S. to her home in Brazil. A major custody battle has been going on ever since she left on "vacation", only to call her then-husband David Goldman and state she and their son Sean were not coming back. Bruna received a divorce in Brazil without David's consent, then remarried.

New Front of Sean Goldman's Custody Battle: Grandparents Bring it to U.S. Soil: Who is Lins e Silva?
Many people who know the tenacity of the Bianchis are saying that we have not seen the end of the battle for Sean's custody. The grandparents' new weapon is the little sister of Sean. She is the daughter of Lins e Silva. Bruna Bianchi died while giving birth to her.
Now let us take a look at Lins e Silva.
Lins is a prominent divorce attorney in his father's family law firm. He is the one who was behind all the appeals that kept Sean in Brazil with him and his grandparents. His father's law firm could be the one that finalized Bruna's divorce from her husband, David Goldman. How convenient it was for them? Bruna divorced her husband in a country where the couple's primary residence was not.
Without him being knowledgeable about the intricacies of Brazilian law, David could have been granted the custody of his son much earlier.
There are many issues that will need to be solved as far as Sean's sister is concerned. Will Lins e Silva and the grandparents find sympathetic ears in a U.S. court or a judge?
Watch on.

How Did David Golman Win His Son's Custody Back? A Single Father's Custody Strategy
The way David framed his fight for the return of his son was very important in getting him back.
Here is a memorable passage from all his interviews, texts and communications:
".....Sean is my family, Sean is my son. I tis our right to be together, not just a rule of law, not just a treaty, not he's Brazilian, not he's American, not he's from anywhere. He's my son and I should be able to raise my son and he should know his dad..."
Sean is back on American soil. His father will hopefully share him with his grandparents who can travel to the US to see him.
"A father and his 9-year-old son at the center of a five-year custody battle on two continents arrived in Florida from Brazil Thursday.
Sean Goldman and his dad, David Goldman of Tinton Falls, N.J., landed in Orlando on a private jet chartered by NBC. They reunited earlier in Rio de Janeiro, ending an epic battle that pitted Sean's father against the boy's Brazilian stepfather, who had cared for Sean since his mother died last year."

Who is Sean Goldman's Brazilian Family Side? The Bianchis Are Rich and Powerful and Always Get What They Want
It was like David vs. Goliath in the epic biblical story. David Goldman, a single father from Tinton Falls, N.J. decided to take on an entranched, powerful and rich Brazilian family. Thanks to God and the Brazilian Supreme court and countless efforts from the citizens of both countries, David ended up triumphing over Goliath. Is it the end of the battle as the grandparents are getting ready to battle in U.S. courts? It seems that money is not a problem for them. They must rich landowners and business people in Brazil. They are saying that Sean has a sister in Brazil. They are close. He does not want to be away from his sister. It looks like the grandparents have a better shot at getting their grandson reunited with their grandaughter in a U.S. court. Lins e Silva is ready to help with legal briefs too. Can he practice in the U.S.?
Here is how Dateline NBC describes the court battle between David Goldman and the entranched, powerful and rich Brazilian families, the Ribeiros and Lins e Silvas.
"David is fighting the battle of his life and has run up against two very powerful and influential families, the Ribeiro's and Lins e Silva's, that have done all they can to prevent him from being reunited with Sean. He has exhausted virtually every legal option available to him in both the US and Brazil at great cost emotionally and financially. After Bruna's sudden and tragic passing on August 22nd 2008, we all assumed David would finally be able to see Sean and bring him home. Unfortunately, he is now in the midst of another custody battle, this time with Bruna's new husband, João Paulo Lins e Silva...."
How did this five-year battle to regain custody get started? While you may be interested in its conclusion, it is worth taking a look at how it started.
According to Bruna's mother, the marriage was not going anywhere. Tired of working too much and feeling lonely, the beautiful Bruna decided to move back to Brazil, but she failed to tell her husband, David, the whole story. She decided to take her son with her with plans of not coming back. While being in Brazil, she decided to divorce David and married into a powerful Brazilian family. Her new husband comes from a powerful group of family lawyers in Brazil. He is the one who is going to exhaust all appeals for the purpose of keeping young Sean in Brazil. Andy way, while giving birth to Lins e Silva's daughter, the mother mother died.
That is how the drama got started. Goldman's fight against a powerful fmaily of Rio de Janeiro lawyers was truly seen as a rematch of biblical proportion. The Brazilian family of Sean will soon realize that money and power do not always get you everything.
David Goldman persisted. He never gave up despite all the odds. He took on the radio and talk shows. People from both countries started seeing the truth. A dad wants to be reunited with his son. More and more sympathizers started joining David's camp. So on 12-24-09, Goldman was granted the custody of his son. This time, he had him and they were flying back to America.
Both father and son are now back in New Jersey! This may be the only victory for a single dad.

......It began as a love affair. David Goldman was an American model working in Milan when he met Bruna, a beautiful Brazilian-born fashion design student. They fell in love, got married, moved to New Jersey and had a son named Sean. But everything changed in 2004 when Bruna took their 4-year-old son to Brazil for what Goldman says was a family vacation. Bruna and Sean never returned.
She divorced Goldman, remarried, and died tragically in 2008 while giving birth to her second child. But after her death, her second husband, Joao Paulo Lins e Silva, refused to return Sean to his birth father. Silva, a successful attorney, claims the nine-year-old boy is now his own.
Goldman thought his five-year custody battle was coming to an end in June, when he won a ruling in a federal court in Brazil. But a Brazilian Supreme Court justice suspended that decision after receiving a petition from a Brazilian political party......

The Business Side of Sean Goldman's Return to the US: NBC Paid for Chartered Flight to the US to Control Exclusives
Many critics are complaining about NBC's action. After all, NBC is investing in its bottom line......NBC News has paid for a chartered flight from Brazil to the United States carrying David Goldman and his 9-year-old son, Sean. David Goldman has been fighting for 5 years to get custody of his son who was taken to Brazil by his mother in 2004.
In addition to David and Sean Goldman, NBC News correspondent Jeff Rossen is also on board. Rossen flew to Brazil, commercially, earlier this week as the story was heading toward a climax.
In a one-line statement, NBC News spokesperson Lauren Kapp tells TVNewser, "The Goldmans were invited on a jet NBC News chartered to fly home to the US."
With tomorrow being Christmas, any exclusive video and interviews will most likely be held for the "Today" show on Monday. This also gives NBC an opportunity to promote the story throughout the weekend. NBC News has been covering the custody battle for nearly a year when David Goldman first appeared on Dateline on Jan. 30.
It's not uncommon for networks to pay for the flights and hotel stays of guests when they appear in studio in New York, but this will once again, raise questions about networks paying for news, especially an emotionally charged story centered on a 9-year-old boy.

TVNewser reached out to a charter company to see how much a flight from Rio de Janeiro to New York would cost. A "heavy jet" which could carry 7-8 people on short notice would run between $50,000 to $70,000.
The Gulfstream G-IV NBC News chartered is registered to a Manhattan-based LLC.

Trajectory: Single Dad David Goldman's Remarkable Efforts over the years to regain custody of his son, Sean
Now that David has his son, the work is just started. One way or another, Sean will have to be in touch with his Brazilian grandparents. After all, a good part of his young years was spent with them. We hope that after taking time for healing, David will transcend all the bad feelings and headache over appeals and rejection and hand over the olive branch. We hope that once or as often as a few times per year, Sean and his father will go back to Brazil so Sean can see his family and friends. The difference is that at this time it will be on the father's own terms.
Obviously, many negotiations have to be taken place for that healing to happen.

Update on David Goldman's Fight to Get Back his Son from Brazilian Grandparents and Supreme Court
David Goldman was not granted the custody of his son. He went to Brazil to be reunited with his son, but he was not given the privilege of flying back to the States with his son.
So while we are ready to celebrate Christmas with our family members, think about this father who has been battling the fight of his life.
He will have to wait until February 2010 to find out whether he will ever be able to have his son back in the US.
