This is a pretty significant misrepresentation of what i posted.
1. Criminal offences are defined by actus reus - i.e the physical elements/actions of the offence
2. If you commit the acts, with requisite intent you, commit the felony - end of story. So if the kids remain hidden (let's assume), then she will commit the felony where it is her intent to deprive the state of its custodial rights.
'Due process' is not directly part of the offence I am afraid. What is of course always relevant is mens rea - i.e intent.
As I already posted, the Judge's order of itself does not trigger the felony. Rather LV will commit a felony when she first knowingly acts to deprive the state of its custodial rights. In other words, the Judge will order that LV reveal the location of the children to law enforcement so that they can be brought into the state's custody. When she fails to so reveal, she commits the felony. I already stated as much.
We should also note that in the case of
State of Idaho vs Vallow our liberatarian damsel is already being afforded all
due process and is no doubt represented. Indeed the case is national news. One doubts she can pretend to avoid knowledge of the outcome by refusing to speak to her lawyer
But of course, the legal system has seen every stripe of absconder down the years and was not born yesterday. Law Enforcement will arrive on her doorstep to enforce custody rights pursuant to the Court orders, no doubt with a copy in hand. That will be all the notice that LV ought to be afforded.
Let's not pretend she needs days or weeks of notice to give up the game. She only need say the word.
In my highly over valued opinion, when she does not do so, she will knowingly commit a felony offence.
