The '''Elizabeth Morgan case''' was a high-publicized child custody struggle initially located in Washington D.C. and later in New Zealand. Over 1000 news articles were published on it. It cost the litigants in attorneys fees, expert witness and court costs etc. a combined total of over $4 million.

The U.S. Congress intervened twice to see that the existing laws did not apply to Elizabeth Morgan. Once in 1989 and again in 1996. See below. After being freed on September 25, 1989, Morgan traveled to New Zealand and rejoin Hilary and the grandparents. Foretich searched and was able to locate Hilary in Christchurch in February 1990. After attempting to resume the custody struggle under New Zealand law, Foretich gave up, in part because of the financial burden of pursuing the matter. Morgan and family returned to the USA in 1997 after the second congressional intervention, freed of Judge Dixon's jurisdiction.

It was Morgan's father who first suggested that Foretich might be abusing Hilary. When Hilary was less than a year old, he insisted that Morgan take her to the emergency room to be examined for sexual abuse because her thighs were red when she returned
 +
from an overnight visit. The doctor on duty diagnosed diaper rash. Morgan initially rejected her father's suspicions, but by January 1985, when Hilary was two-and-a-half, she too had begun to allege that Foretich was sexually abusing Hilary and on that ground sought to reduce or eliminate his visitation rights.

Morgan made public appearances at women's groups. On December 14, 2001, Elizabeth Morgan was the featured speaker at a forum in Bowie sponsored by Justice for Children, Delegate Joan Pitkin, and others. Elsa Newman and Margery Lemb Landry had helped organize the event. Morgan lectured on the evils of child abuse and the lack of sympathy from male American [[judge]]s. "Osama bin Laden had nothing to teach me about evil on September 11," Morgan told the women, according to news reports. She compared Maryland's family-court judges to the Spanish Inquisition in their potential to inflict cruelty. Morgan reiterated the three options she held out for women who believe the system is not protecting their children from sexual abuse: "Give in to incest, pick up the child and run for your life–or get a gun and shoot the abuser."<ref>https://www.washingtonian.com/2002/06/01/deadly-triangle/</ref>

William J. Morgan was a clinical psychologist and former member of the Central Intelligence Agency staff who had written of his World War II years as a soldier and member of the OSS as a spy trainer. William was involved in the Cold War, preparing spies as bait where real spies watched as Russian counterintelligence agents studied the unwitting decoys.

Morgan, as a surgeon in Washington, D.C., in 1980 published a successful book titled ”The Making of a Woman Surgeon”, which recounted the rigors of her training in this predominantly male profession.

After a trial in November 1985, the judge awarded custody to Morgan and overnight visitation rights to Foretich.

For the next two years, Morgan’s incarceration received a great deal of publicity. She convinced famous and influential people, including Charles Colson that abuse had indeed occurred. Morgan’s legal expenses approached $1 million. A great deal of press coverage ensued. In August 1989 a reporter sympathetic to Foretich wrote, “a media-savvy Elizabeth Morgan is winning in jail what she couldn’t win in the courts – the public relations battle to have Hilary’s father presumed guilty.” Morgan would be released in September 1989 by an act of Congress.

Dr. Morgan had been incarcerated by Herbert B. Dixon, Jr. for contempt of court in her custody dispute. Since she showed no signed of obeying Dixon’s orders, she seems destined to remain in jail indefinitely. For the next two years, Morgan’s incarceration received a great deal of publicity. In much of it she was portrayed as a model prisoner, and a woman of fortitude. Chuck Colson visited her in jail and she convinced him that Dr. Foretich had sexually abused Hillary. Colson had a wide array of powerful Republican, conservative and religious connections at his disposal and used them. Morgan and Colson convinced many famous and influential people came to believe in Morgan’s accustaions and this effort lead to the passage of the Act.

“”I can understand liberal columnists going ga-ga over the celebrated Ms. Elizabeth Morgan and the fawning articles in such pop magazines as Glamour and People. What troubles me is that several normally sensible conservatives did likewise, e.g. Charles (Chuck) Colson, James Dobson, Sen. Orrin Hatch, Sen. John Heinz, Lt. Col. Oliver North (although he merely attended a party and said “God Bless”) and H Ross Perot. Strange bedfellows, indeed. Then, in a monument to political pandering to public ignorance, Galahads in Congress unanimously passed and President Bush, the elder, signed a bill freeing this demonstrably prevaricating maternal child molester. Republican Rep. Tom Davis sponsored a bill to let her bring her daughter back from New Zealand without facing the consequences of her defiance of the court.””

Having previously passed the District of Columbia Civil Contempt Imprisonment Limitation Act (see above),Congress was persuaded to pass yet another law on Dr. Morgan’s behalf. By 1995, Morgan, who had fled to New Zealand with Ellen and other relatives, had developed cancer . Ellen, then 13, indicated to Rep. Thomas M. Davis that she wanted to return to the U.S. In September 1996, Davis sponsored the Elizabeth Morgan Act as a rider on a major transportation bill. While this new legislation was worded to focus on Ellen’s needs, it effectively shielded Morgan from all of the judicial custody orders that were still in force, and the Morgans returned to the U.S in 1997.

”’The Elizabeth Morgan Act”’ was an act of Congress, as a rider, on behalf of Elizabeth Morgan. This was a second act of Congress in which Morgan’s case was mentioned during the deliberations. The first had been a modification of local D.C. law. The act allowed Morgan and her daughter, Ellen, to return to the United States without having to share custody of Ellen with the girl’s father, Dr. Eric A. Foretich. The act was overturned in 2003 only after Ellen had reached adulthood as a rare bill of attainder .

Line 188: Line 217:  
Foretich claimed that the damage to his reputation from the Act reduced his professional practice in the D.C. area and made it difficult for him to find comparable work anywhere else in the nation. He dropped all further attempts to gain visitation and focused on the undoing of the Act. On 2003-12-16, the United States Court of Appeals for the D.C. circuit ruled that the Elizabeth Morgan Act was unconstitutional, as it was a rare bill of attainder, but the decision was moot as Ellen was no longer a minor . In finding that it was a bill of attainder, the Court’s logic was that the Bill was not about the Morgans but about Dr. Foretich and that it penalized him. Precedent had established that only bills which penalize a party can be found to be a bill of attainder. Jonathan Turley, a George Washington University law professor who represented the Foretich family, said the government will have to pay for legal fees in the case—about $1.5 million. He added, “I would hope this would be the final chapter, but such hopes have been dashed many times in the case.” He also said (in a ” USA Today ” editorial in March 2005): “The bill negated 10 years of orders in the husband’s favor and effectively labeled him a danger to his daughter.” Comparisons regarding congressional intervention in the judicial system can be drawn between the Elizabeth Morgan Act and the Palm Sunday Compromise of the recent Terri Schiavo case .
