'NEWARK, N.J. (AP) — It was a globe-trotting romance: a handsome American working as a model in Italy falls in love with a Brazilian beauty studying fashion design in Milan. They marry in 1999, settle in the tony New Jersey shore town of Red Bank, and have a son.

Four years later, the couple's relationship begins to change from an international love affair into a diplomatic nightmare.

The woman, Bruna Bianchi, took the couple's son to visit her relatives in Brazil in 2004 but never returned. The boy's father, David Goldman of Tinton Falls, N.J., has been battling to get his son back ever since.'
