Police: Mother Abducts 12-Year-Old Son After Bitter Divorce

ANAHEIM HILLS (CBSLA.com) — An ugly divorce has resulted in the apparent abduction of a 12-year-old boy, according to the victim's father.

"It's worse than hell. I don't know what hell is like, but this is it for me," father Michael Myaskovsky said.

Myaskovsky  has custody of the child, and says the boy's mother and his estranged wife, Sousan Alemansour, grabbed him during a supervised visit Monday and took off. Her vehicle was discovered at LAX, and police have confirmed that the two were on a flight to Chicago on Monday night.

He also says Alemansour assaulted the court-appointed monitor before escaping with the child.

"She said that she's wanted to move out of the state," Myaskovsky said. "She said she's looking for work elsewhere, but I didn't think she would pull this."

Alemansour has no family in Chicago, according to Myaskovsky. She is expected to be charged with felony child abduction.
