ANTIGO, WI (WSAU) — The Antigo woman who disappeared with her two children for just over two months in violation of a custody agreement was in court on Monday.
Cathy Brown checked her children Dalton and Averie out of school on November 18th of last year, and the three disappeared until January 23rd, violating a court-ordered custody placement with the children’s father, who was supposed to care for them on an every-other-weekend basis.
Once found in Hill City, South Dakota, Cathy was placed under arrest and Ryan took custody of the children. She’s been given a $20,000 cash bond in Langlade County court and has been ordered not to have contact with her children or their father.
If convicted, Cathy faces up to twelve years in prison for violating a court-ordered custody placement.
