The older sister of three Marokopa children missing with their father for more 18 months says she fears her siblings will think the family has given up looking for them.
In an exclusive interview for documentary series Mata Reports, Jubilee Dawson said she was missing out on seeing her three siblings grow up after her former step-father disappeared with the children in September 2021, briefly returned and then disappeared a second time in December 2021.
This story is in partnership with Mata, with the support of NZ on Air’s Public Interest Journalism Fund and Te Mängai Päho.

You have used this opportunity well as a tool for reminding people about your missing siblings. I hope that someone who knows what has happened sees your heartbreak and responds with information about the children's whereabouts. Sadly this sort of story on KZfaq attracts some people who are unstable or malicious. I hope that you do not feel intimidated by the person who has repeatedly made stupid comments.

Because the average court favors split care. People think it favors the mother but that was decades ago. Its rare for there to be a custodial parent (1 parent having main custody) in this age of split care. They care more about the rights of the parents than the safety of the kids. Yet if a woman did this she would be accused of parental alienation. See how few use that language when a man does it?

When someone like Tom decides to go off grid and he's already what sounds like a sovcit type... How is it the polices fault when they've done search and rescue and I'd guess there's a lot going on behind the scenes that the police said they can't talk about. When someone like that is determined and practiced at disappearing, he's obviously and tragically successful. It's heartbreaking for the kids and family. He's obviously getting help financially with food, shelter and supplies. His parents must know something and be helping him as the police said that he doesn't even trust banks. I don't doubt he'll get caught, I just hope that it's very soon for the kids sake.

@@elenawilliams32 In my view it's the court's fault for not giving the mother full custody DIRECTLY after he took them the first time. She would have been getting in trouble if she didn't let the kids see their father, so she had only one choice; Let them see him and PRAY that he'd let them come back home. That the court didn't speed up the process after he'd showed that he couldn't be trusted with the kids is a crime in and of itself - to me. EDIT: Then again, the police aren't really doing *anything* at all to find these kids. If they are so sure people are helping him, why not put cameras at the parents farm and other people that could know something? Why not send out a big team to search? Why not look through the bush with thermal cameras, they do have helicopters, don't they? Otherwise, call the fucking army to help find them. They have been missing way too long for the response from the police being sufficient. So yes, it's on the police too.

​@tessiepinkman yes he should have lost custody the first time he took the kids and apparently he still has at least some custody as they said the case is still before the courts the moment he went missing the second time custody should have been terminated permanently regardless if whatever reason the court feels like the mum shouldn't have custody the dad absolutely positively shouldn't have custody ever again

​@@tessiepinkmanWe dont know why the mother did not have custody, all we know is that the father had custody. It has since come out that custody is under the family court. I dint think we have seen the mother make a statement, only the two older daughters. For people who dont realise it, the high country, the remote country, is huge, its rugged, its wild! And there is loads to eat, if ypu mnow what you are doing. Remember, people have disappeared, and not been discovered for months or years clise to christchurch, to wellington, to auckland.

The individual calling her ‘Sparky’ seems to be connected to the missing children and is threatening her with the children being harmed if her and her family “don’t back off”. They’re pretty deranged and are essentially saying that the children will be harmed if the police and courts aren’t ‘called off”.

Im so so sad that this has happened...dont stop looking, dont stop asking, dont stop digging...dont let this die!!! And WHEN they come home...STILL dont stop, because thats only the beginning of the healing. Thats when the hard work starts. Thats when the long road to recovery begins. These little ones have a road ahead, a future of hope. But its going to take a lot of extra work and will need a tremendous amount of support and understanding from the world around them and the way they act wont always make sense on the surface. People near and dear need to be willing to look deeper and not give up. I hope and pray for this. Im sending my love and blessings for everything they will need for the long road. ❤ much much love...baraka bashad

Am I the only one wondering how, the first time, when he took the children against court decisions, he wasnt in jail so he couldn't do it again? Children that age need yo be at school, have welfare checks etc Its ok fir Tom Phillips but if one of the children becomes ill, what then? Police response is baffling... keep looking for goodness sake. Kia Ora to Mum and sisters... what a horrible nightmare... xxxxx

If there's any chance that the dad & kids have somehow made it out of the country, I'll be sure to keep my eye's open for them, here in Canada. Fortunately though, for both mom & sis, I strongly feel that the kids are likely being held, out on a farm that's probably within a 100km radius of where his parents farm is located. I'll admit that I'm more than a little curious though, as to what their dad's thought process was, in all of this? Since surely, he had to of realized, that his kids weren't going to be staying young forever? So if they're not found by the police first, it's likely only to be a matter of time before those 3 kids will find a way to eventually end up rescuing themselves.
