BARBARA KURTH/MOTHER: I HAVE BEEN LIVING WITH THE LOSS OF MY DAUGHTERS FOR NEARLY TWENTY YEARS.NOT A DAY HAS GONE BY THAT I HAVE NOT THOUGHT ABOUT WHETHER THEY WERE SAFE AND HAPPY.
Fagan contends he was only protecting his daughters. He claims his former wife was an alcholic who neglected the children...leaving them unclothed and unfed.believing he could never win custody, he says, his only recourse was to disappear.
JACOB ATWOOD/MOTHER ATTY: THESE ARE BASELESS ALLEGATIONS AND BY ALL ACCOUNTS SHE WAS A SPLENDID MOTHER. After taking the children, according to police, Fagan reinvented himself as investor William Martin amd moved to Palm Beach, Florida. He bought a mansion--though it's unclear where the money came from--and mingled among socialites.
As his years in hiding passed fagan took risks... even having his picture taken a few years ago when a local t-v station did a story on his daughter, a swimming champion. He appeared to be the perfect father. His attorney says his daughters still think so.
