Speaking out—in violation of court order—about the removal of her Nazi-named children from her home, NJ resident Deborah Campbell tells the Easton Express-Times, "My husband and I would never abuse our children. I just want my children back. I'm begging people to stand behind us and for an attorney to come forward." Campbell's husband Heath had created a media frenzy when publicized Shop-Rite's refusal to inscribe a third birthday cake with son Adolf Hitler (Campbell)'s name. Their local police chief believes that attention prompted others to come forward with accusations against the parents and arousing the concern of family services (who claim the kids weren't taken because of their names, but due to other danger). Adolf Hitler, Joyce Lynn Aryan Nation and Honszlynn Hinler Jeannie's parents' hearing has been postponed because they haven't found a lawyer yet.
