Family looks to future after fugitive brother's return to US

[...] Beth Kelley said she doesn't plan to talk to him about the reasons for his absence: the child custody fight that made him and his wife international fugitives. Scott Kelley and his wife, Genevieve, are back on U.S. soil and facing criminal charges for allegedly absconding to Central America with Genevieve Kelley's daughter amid a bitter custody dispute that included allegations — which investigators say were unfair — that the now-19-year-old's birth father abused her. Beth Kelley said relatives are avoiding talking about the case and instead trying to focus on the family's future, especially that of the couple's two children: the young woman whose safety has been cited as the reason for their flight and the 10-year-old boy whose medical condition was the reason for their return. Nineteen-year-old Mary Nunes, who was 8 when she disappeared with her mother and stepfather, is at an undisclosed location. [...] her 10-year-old brother, John, is living with Genevieve at an in-law's home and being treated for cystic fibrosis. If convicted, the Kelleys face up to seven years in prison on each of three felony counts involving custodial interference and witness tampering, and up to a year in jail on each of two misdemeanors.
