AND NOW, this.LI2!!!. day of April, 2000, I respectfully submit this Petition for
Visitation of the minor child, Daijon G. Busic on behalf of her minor siblings, Samantha
M. Busic and Hayden M. Busic in accordance with Purdon's Pennsylvania Consolidated
Statutes Annotate, Title 23 Domestic Relations, 23 Pa. C.SA ~5303,
Factual Information
1. Daijon G. Busic, Samantha M. Busic and Hayden M. Busic are family
members by paternal consanguinity. The minor children desire to maintain a relationship
with one another through a court ordered visitation schedule. We request one weekend
visit per month from 6:00 pm Friday evening until 6:00 pm Sunday evening, at our
Duncannon home with transportation to be shared equally by Laurie Pisarcik Connolly and
Heather M. DiMeo. We also request permission for the minor c!li1dren to be allowed to
make telephone ca11s to one another without restriction.
2. Daijon G, Busic, who was born on March 3, 1986, is the biological
daughter of Laurie Pisarcik: Connolly, formerly Laurie Busic and Kenneth A. Busic.
Daijon G. Busic, lives with her mother Laurie Pisarcik Connolly, her step-father Richard
C. Connolly and her maternal half brother and half sister at 1504 McCormick Drive,

3, Samantha M. Busic, who was born on September 7, 1988, is the biological
daughter of Heather M. DiMeo, formerly Heather M. Busic, and the legally adopted
daughter of Kenneth A. Busic. The adoption was effective in November 1994. Samantha
M, Busic lives with her mother Heather M. DiMeo at 6 Princeton Street, Duncannon, P A
17020,
4, Hayden M. Busic, who was born on August 2, 1991, is the biological son
of Heather M. DiMeo, formerly Heather M, Busic, and Kenneth A. Busic. Hayden M.
Busic lives with his mother Heather M. DiMeo at 6 Princeton Street, Duncannon, P A
17020.
5, Daijon G, Busic, Samantha M. Busic and Hayden M, Busic have
maintained an ongoing sibling relationship through bi-weekly visitation, holiday visitation
and summer vacations from February 14, 1991, the date of marriage between Heather M.
DiMeo and Kenneth A. Busic, until May 1999, at which time it was reported to Children
and Youth Services that Kenneth A. Busic had sexua11y molested Samantha M. Busic,
Since May 1999, the children have only spoken to one another on the telephone. They
have maintained an ongoing sibling relationship for approximately the past 9 years. The
three (3) minor children have each verbally stated their desire to continue their sibling
relationship.
6, In May 1999, Kenneth A. Busic sexually molested Samantha M. Busic and
a Protection from Abuse Order was issued on June 4, 1999, for the safety and protection
of Samantha M, Busic and Hayden M. Busic.
7. As a result of a guilty plea to indcrcent assault of a minor child under the
age of 13, by Kenneth A. Busic in Dauphin County Criminal Court, No. 3202 CD 1999,
Kenneth A, Busic was placed on five (5) years intermediate punishment and is restricted
from having any unsupervised contact with any minor child under the age of 18 for the
next five (5) years, including the victim, Samantha M, Busic and her siblings Daijon G,
Busic and Hayden M. Busic.
8, Due to the emotional trauma that Samantha M. Busic endured from the
molestation, she is no longer capable of maintaining any type of contact with Kenneth A.
Busic, even under supervision. A supervised visitation schedule for Hayden M, Busic has
not been established, but will be addressed at the Perry County Courthouse on May 12,
2000 before Judge Joseph Rehkamp. Regardless of the outcome of the conference on
May 12, 2000, the circumstances involved regarding Samantha's emotional well being will
continue to prohibit the three (3) minor children from maintaining their sibling relationship
through paternal contact with Kenneth A. Busic,
9. Heather M, DiMeo has sole legal and sole physical custody of the minor
children, Samantha M. Busic and Hayden M. Busic as stated in Perry County Court Order
dated March 13, 2000.

His attorney's name and address are as follows: Carl G, Wass, Esquire, Caldwell &
Kearns, 3631 North Front Street, Harrisburg, PA 17110-1533,
11. During a telephone conversation between Samantha and Daijon on April 7,
2000, Laurie Pisarcik Connolly came to the phone and said that the three children are in
no way related to one another, they have no right to maintain a relationship and if anyone
in our family ever calls their home again to speak to Daijon, Laurie will file charges of
harassment against Heather, Samantha and Hayden,
12, Laurie Pisarcik: Connolly is prohibiting the three (3) minor children from
continuing a relationship to which they are legally entitled and has been sustained for
approximately the past 9 years,

child, Daijon G. Busic on behalf of her siblings, the minor children Samantha M, Busic and
Hayden M. Busic,

CUSTODY OCtiICILIATICl\/ SIOMMARY REPOOT
IN ACCORDANCE WITH CllMBERLAND CXXlNTY RULE OF CIVIL PROCEDURE
1915.3-8, the undersigned Custody Conciliator submits the following report:
1. The pertinent information concerning the Child who is the subject
of this litigation is as follows:
NAME
DATE OF BIRTH
CURREI\lTLY IN CUSTODY OF
Daijon G. Busic
Age 14 years
Laurie Connolly
(Mother)
2. A Conciliation Conference was held on June 21, 2000, with the
following individuals in attendance: The Plaintiff, Heather M. DiMeo, who
is not represented by counsel in this matter, and the Father, Kenneth A.
Busic, who also is not represented by counsel. The Child's mother, Laurie
Connolly, did not attend the Conference or contact the Conciliator.
3. The Plaintiff, Heather M. DiMeo, was the second wife of Kenneth A.
Busic, and there were two children of their marriage, Samantha M. Busic and
Hayden M. Busic. Both Samantha and Hayden live with Heather DiMeo. The
Father, Kevin A. Busic and Laurie Connolly, his first wife, have one child,
Daijon G. Busic. previously, all three of the children, Daijon, Samantha
and Hayden had contact with each other during periods of custody with their
father, Kenneth Busic. However, as Kenneth Busic is no longer permitted to
have contact with Samantha and may only have limited supervised visitation
with Hayden, Samantha and Hayden no longer have contact with Daijon.
Heather DiMeo filed this Petition on behalf of Samantha and Hayden to
enable them to have periods of visitation with their half-sister, Daijon.
Daijon's mother, Laurie Connolly, has objected to contact between the
children, thus resulting in the Plaintiff's filing of this Petition.
4. It should be noted that Heather DiMeo filed her Petition Pro Be
and did not serve Laurie Connolly with notice of the Order scheduling the
Conciliation Conference (by direction of the Prothonotary's Office). The
-
'=j-p
.)','
~
,
~
.
Conciliator was not able to reach Laurie Connolly by telephone during the
Conference and therefore Ms. Connolly did not have an opportunity to
express her position on the visitation issue.
5. Issues of standing and service were discussed at the Conference.
In any event, the Plaintiff indicated that she would attempt to pursue an
agreement with Laurie Connolly through further discussions with Kenneth
Busic. The Mother does not intend to pursue the Petition for Visitation
and therefore no Order is necessary at this time.
