Partners in Crime: Who is an Accomplice?

Anyone who intentionally participates in a crime or helps a criminal before,
during, or after the crime may be held responsible for it.

An accomplice is one who intentionally helps another to commit a crime. Even if
an accomplice does not carry out the crime, in the eyes of the law the
accomplice's crime assistance makes him or her just as guilty
as the person who commits the crime itself.

The Rules of Professional Conduct of The Florida Bar state the following: Rule 4-1.2(d) prohibits the lawyer from assisting a client in conduct that the lawyer knows or reasonably should know is criminal or fraudulent. Rule 4-1.6(b) requires a lawyer to reveal information to the extent the lawyer reasonably believes necessary to prevent a client from committing a crime. Rule 4-3.3(a)(2) requires a lawyer to reveal a material fact to the tribunal when disclosure is necessary to avoid assisting a criminal or fraudulent act by the client. Rule 4-3.3(a)(4) prohibits a lawyer from offering false evidence and requires the lawyer to take reasonable remedial measures when false material evidence has been offered. Rule 4-3.4(b) prohibits a lawyer from fabricating evidence or assisting a witness to testify falsely. Rule 4-8.4(a) prohibits the lawyer from violating the Rules of Professional Conduct or knowingly assisting another to do so. Rule 4-8.4(b) prohibits a lawyer from committing a criminal act that reflects adversely on the lawyer's honesty, trustworthiness, or fitness as a lawyer. Rule 4-8.4(c) prohibits a lawyer from engaging in conduct involving dishonesty, fraud, deceit, or misrepresentation. Rule 4-8.4(d) prohibits a lawyer from engaging in conduct that is prejudicial to the administration of justice.

While there may be a few questions about the involvement of Diana Levy in this abduction,
there are some very big questions about the role played by Howard Poznaski in this crime.
Apparently, Howard Poznanski broke all the above Rules of Professional Conduct.

According to Howard Poznanski, when he first met Smadar Hameiry, she told him that she
wanted to abduct the children to Brazil and ask him how to get away with this without
being charged with the crime of International Parental Kidnapping.

Howard Poznanski told her exactly what to do, and later on, assisted her in providing
false information to the police in order to prevent a police investigation, and then
assisted Smadar Hameiry in providing false information to the Florida Court in order
to stop the divorce proceedings taking place in Florida. But why did he do it?

The official version is that Smadar Hameiry fooled him into assisting her in the
abduction of the three children to Brazil. She was probably able to fool him
because she came recommended to him by Rivka Denburg of the Hebrew Academy.

According to Howard Poznanski, during the month of June 2007, following a request
of the children's father through his divorce attorney, he advised Smadar Hameiry
to immediately and unconditionally allow the children to talk to their father over
the phone everyday. This is very important from a legal point of view, as preventing
the children from talking to their father is considered an act of Parental Alienation
upon the children and this could be considered by the Court as child abuse.
Smadar Hameiry rejected this advice and told Howard Poznanski that her Brazilian
attorney had advised her not to let the children talk to their father.

On July 17, 2007, Howard Poznanski told the children's father that Smadar Hameiry lied
to him from the beginning, and that if he had known what he knows today about her, he
would have refused to assist her. He also said that the immigration attorney, Diana
Levy, was the one who provided Smadar Hameiry with all the documentation necessary
to leave the country with the three children. And that Rivka Denburg of the Hebrew
Academy was the one who came up with the idea of abducting the children to Brazil.

Howard Poznanski was not the first nor the last person to tell the children's father
that Rivka Denburg was the one who came up with the idea of kidnapping the children
to Brazil. But who told this to Howard Poznanski and the others? Smadar Hameiry!

So why did Howard Poznanski assist Smadar Hameiry in abducting the children to Brazil?
Was it because he was helping Rivka Denburg get rid of Smadar Hameiry? Or was it because
Smadar Hameiry manipulated Rivka Denburg, Howard Poznanski, and others into assisting
her in kidnapping the children to Brazil? And without even paying them any money!

The answer to this question will not come through words but through actions. Maybe the time
has come for Howard Poznanski and the other people who were manipulated by Smadar
Hameiry into abducting the children to Brazil, to start working towards recovering
the children and bringing them back home to the people who truly love them.
