The information provided here is to expand on publicly available information with personal insight and opinion. The opinions shared here may not be the same opinions of the subject of this biography. Information provided here that is not publicly available is based on fact and documented, but withheld for privacy.
My information and opinions are personal experiences while being briefly married to her daughter, Mayre. Even after the divorce and her subsequent suicide, the saga continues.
Readers may notice Maureens tribute to herself in naming her deceased adopted daughters. All are M.G.M. Maureen insisted that her grandchildren refer to her as "MiMi". I always found this interesting because it is appropriate for her disposition of always talking about "Me Me". Also keep in mind the victimhood status Maureen likes to portray not only for attention, but for profit as well.
After the categorical information, I will provide a timeline of experiences of my interactions with Maureen Mulvaney to Date.
PDF links are provided because these types of things seem to disappear when people want them too.
Start with a video introduction to Maureen.
This is a very telling video. There is much more to it than what she says. Read the transcript for commentary.In Maureen's own words. Why she is so obsessed with taking my kids?

In Maureen's own words. Video Transcript With Commentary.
0:00:00
Hey, y'all! It's Maureen G. Mulvaney, MGM, the number one rated school nutrition speaker and
cheerleader.
Yay! And I just came back from my walk with my dog, Shamrock, and I had this overwhelming
feeling to want to share something with you that very few people know.
As a matter of fact, only a few people outside my family know this, because everybody always
sees me as being so happy all the time and Lord of mercy I am.
Happiness is a choice.
You see I always wanted children so I did what everybody else did.
I got married.
My husband and I so desperately both wanted children.
It was great until I couldn't have children.
I still wanted to go ahead and maybe adopt, but he was very opposed to that.
So our marriage ended.
0:01:07
Then I did what I always do.
Instead of getting upset, I put my head down, I'm goal oriented, and I went for success
because I figured if I focused on that, I wouldn't think about having children.
And I did.
But I couldn't throw this feeling, this hole in my heart that I wanted and needed to have a child.
0:01:43
So like everything else, I put my head down, I'm goal oriented and I went right for what I
wanted.
And yet I was one of the very first people in Phoenix, Arizona to be allowed to adopt.
Because it's difficult in the United States.
I went overseas.
She was two years old and changed her name to Mayre, which was a combination of my mother's name, Marie and re so that she'd have a connection to my mom.
Middle name G I E, which stood for God is everywhere and Mulvaney.
So I finally had my little MGM and we were thrilled.
And I'm not saying mamahood was non-challenging because it was, but like I do everything.
0:02:43
I put my head down.
I'm goal oriented and learned to be the best mama I could, supporting could supporting and
nourishing my child through all of her struggles and challenges.
But once again, I put my head down and I went after what I wanted.
We remained happy and we loved them through everything because they were only two and four when this happened.
0:04:05
And sure enough as she went on the marriage had disintegrated because there was domestic
abuse in the marriage...
It was such a shock.
And you know, Klonopin, I didn't know at the time, has got great ability to create suicidal ideation, but I didn't even want to spend any time on that simply because my baby was gone and no amount of reliving it or trying to bring her back was going to work.
0:05:30
And so I'm telling you all of this because it is difficult and I really don't have a a great
piece to say well if you do this but all I can say is that for me I know the only way out of
this and through this is to be more loving more kind more empathetic.
So we need to love more, not less.
Love those that are causing us aggravation and pain.
Love them and love them and love them.
And so my intention was not to shock you.
My intention was to let you take a peek into my heart and into my life and know that now, even in business, I want you to know what I have learned is love, love, love.
0:06:38
I sign all of my business emails love and blessings.
This was cathartic for me.
And just know I'm sending you love and blessings.
God bless MGM.

Never Waste a Crisis
If you have a look at the Go Fund Me, you will see there is no mention of a Father. A Father who was the primary provider. This was when Maureen was attempting to get full custody of the children. Who is the 'Beneficiary'? It's in there.
Unity of Tempe is Maureens non-profit which she is President and CEO. The flyer also requests donations for the children. A "Success Fund". She is soliciting the members of her Spiritual Center of which she is President.

Maureen has an older brother. She has never spoken about him to me. Ever.
Interesting to note is that none of the Mulvaneys: Paul, Maureen or Susan have natural born children. So, just to sum up. Maureen had 2 adopted daughters and they have both passed away. She is pushing her mid 70's and single. Apparently she cannot adopt again. What a sad state of affairs.
So, where in the world is Maureen going to get another daughter to try and successfully raise? That's right, she wants my daughter. She has engaged in the worst of slander and lawfare to try and relieve me of my daughter. Tens of thousands of dollars have been spent on this. Taking money from the children, for the children?
Spring Creek Lodge Academy
Mayre Was Enrolled in Hell
Yes, Maureen enrolled her here during this time. Evidence in the image posts below. I even met one of Mayre's survivor friends on a trip out of town. Mayre did not like talking about her experience there. Apparently it was unpleasant to say the least. I am unaware of the circumstances that led to her enrollment.
These were Behavioral Rehabilitation Programs?
Mayre Mulvaney and Struggling With Suicide
I don't know if Maureen got Mayre counseling after her horrific experiences.

Questions
Maureen's Daughter, Mayre
From Child to Adult
This is from what I know from Mayre:
When Mayre was young and controllable, she had a decent life. It was when she got older and had
her own opinion that she got shipped off to Spring Creek Lodge Academy. Upon reaching the age of
18, she was told to join the Army or get out. So, she got kicked out.
After Divorce
Pornography
Suicide
In her final words, she admits there is no one to help her. Not even Maureen Mulvaney.
Litigation (Lawfare) and Business
Divorced Her Daughter
- Mayre Divorce
I had attempted to divorce Mayre amicably. Maureen agreed to provide funding for a lawyer for Mayre and things got ugly. It didn't have to be that way. When Maureen told Mayree she would have to pay her back, Mayre told me how Maureen was treating her and the children. We settled. Maureen did not like that at all, and cut Mayre off.
- Maureen firing Mayre's
lawyer REDACTED (PDF)
As you can see in the firing letter, Maureen was not happy about not being involved in decision making. Of course it's all about the children. It's a conspiracy! In the end, Maureen could not 'fire' Shannon. Read her letter to the attorney. Maureen claims she was provideing a safe environment yet the police were called to her residence several times for welfare checks. One Documented (PDF).

Where are Mayre and the kids?
Of course Maureen has a trust. Susan, and Paul are the only beneficiaries of her trust. Mayre was 12 years old yet did not warrent a post as beneficiary. I guess she wasn't family. Then what was she?
Maureens grandchildren are not listed as beneficiaries either. There are statements about heirs, but I don't know how that works.

Harassment
Doxing
-
Controlling and manipulative is what my daughter had to say about Maureen. See how Maureen is looking for current doxxing images but makes it sound like she's looking for "Proof of Life". Make note of how many times she uses the phrase "court ordered visitation" or some variation thereof.
Text messages asking for Dox images - REDACTED (PDF)
When looking through her dox page, make note of how many times she refers to "Parent", "Mother", and "Father".
See what Maureen has to say about her daughters suicide.
Maureen's Dox Page from the Constant Contact website - REDACTED (PDF)
Maureen published a constant contact campaign with identifying information about everyone in my family, including the children. She asked people to track us down and to report our locations. Maureen put the children at risk.

Police Calls
- About 02/20/2023 through 03/18/2023 - Maureen has a police detective in Mesa, Arizona investigating my children as missing and are in grave danger. Spoiler alert. The children are with their Mother. The detective is informed about the doxing and harassment, but declines to do anything about it.
- Mesa Police Dept - P24918 - DAVALOS, K.
- Mesa Police Dept - P25294 - KOLLER, D. and P18192 - GARDUNO, M.
- In Maureens statement to Detective Garduno, She states "Maureen explained to the officer following the passing of her daughter, she went to court and petitioned for visitation rights for her two grandchildren, which she was granted on May 17, 2021." This is not true, Maureen petitioned for full custody (Page 8, Item 23).
- Phoenix Police Dept - 10019 - Tatum, J. - 01
- Phoenix Police Dept - 10019 - Tatum, J. - 02
- Phoenix Police Dept - 10122 - Garza, I.
- Prosecutors in both cities decided that the matter should be resolved in family court. That did not stop Maureen from consuming the time of five seperate police officers in two seperate jurisdictions. In officer Tatum's report it should be noted that "MAUREEN HAS REACHED OUT TO THE FBI, STATE DEPARTMENT AND THE AMERICAN EMBASSY LOCATED IN THE PHILIPPINES."
Welfare Checks
- Knowing full well the children were out of the country, on May 23rd 2023, Maureen called in a welfare check welfare check to my address in Kentucky. The officers thought it was odd, especially when she knows they are not in the country.
Surveilling
- Maureen surveilled me after the children and their Mother left
- Maureen surveilled my neighborhood after I left
- Maureen lives in Arizona. I live in Kentucky. Maureen just decided to drive by my house in Kentucky. She drove by 3 times (had to turn around mid block the first time). I am hudreds of miles from the nearest Metro area. She didn't just accidentally drive by my house.
- Now Maureen surveils me in Kentucky
On June 14th 2023, the first time she goes by at 10:30 AM. She goes down the block and turns around. I don't think she knew I was on the porch. Video? Why? Creeper.
The second time, also June 14th 2023, she goes by at 12:55 PM. She comes down the block and WHAT IS SHE DOING? More Video? Why? Total Creeper.
Maureen just loves to let people know she is watching. This video below is her back in 2017 during the divorce with Mayre when I went to talk to her neighbor about what was going on with Maureen. Boy did I get an ear full.
I heard about all the times the police came by. I heard about Maureens sordid past. Her divorce. I'll leave the hearsay out.
Just Plain Creepy and Disrespectful
- Maureen tracked down the children's school in the Philippines. On March 18th 2024, Maureen sent an email to the childrens school claiming she wanted to make a donation to their school library. Sounds like a bribe to get access to the children to me.
- On December 5th 2024, Maureen shows up at the childrens school in Ormoc City, Philippines, unannounced, making demands. She was brought to the school by her attorney. Again she attempted to visit with the children without consent or a prearranged agreement. Maureen insisted that she be granted access to the secure school grounds, confronting the security guard and demanding that it was her court ordered right to see her grandchildren. She was denied. She did not have parental consent. Again she attempted to give gifts (bribe) the school and again was denied.

June 12th 2024 Maricopa County Superior Court, Arizona Trial - Mulvaney v Olesen (VIDEO 2:50:53)
This is the full court trial. Three (3) hours long. It was pieced together after converting to proper MPG.
In Orders issued on June 27th 2024 by Maricopa County Superior Court, in the State of Arizona, U.S.A., Judge Lisa S. Wahlin specifically states:
“Father attempted to communicate with Grandmother on February 3, 2023 regarding visitation. In Father’s text string with Grandmother, Father states “I have repeatedly offered to talk to you but you won’t call.” On February 4, 2023, Grandmother texted Father, telling him that “I’m here to pick up Matthew for our court-ordered visit.” Father responded, stating that the children “are not here.” Father then asked, “Do you want to talk?” Grandmother did not respond. On February 11, 2023, Grandmother texted Father and asked why Father was preventing her access to the children. Father again stated, “You are always welcome to call me.”
The Court is concerned by Grandmother’s actions regarding the children’s move to the Philippines. As noted above, Father offered to speak with Grandmother but Grandmother did not accept the offer. Father also informed Grandmother that the children were in the Philippines with Mother. When Grandmother asked, Father provided texts messages showing the children sightseeing. Nevertheless, Grandmother posted information online that was incorrect and invasive. The information posted on the internet was inflammatory and misleading, and intimated that Mother and Father had unlawfully absconded with the children and the children were in danger. (Ex. B13 and Ex. B15). Also concerning is the video that Father presented during trial, which shows Grandmother slowly driving down Father’s street in Kentucky, despite the fact that she is aware that Mother and the children are in the Philippines.
The Court is also concerned with Grandmother’s interactions with the children. In reviewing the video, the Court noted that Grandmother made no effort to validate the children’s feelings. Specifically, when the older child stated, “We don’t want to talk to you,” Grandmother responded by stating “Oh, baby, I know that’s not you.” The child stated twice that she did not want to talk to Grandmother, and the second time she expressed that she did not want to talk to Grandmother, the child’s voice showed annoyance. When the child told Grandmother that she did not want to talk to her, Grandmother inappropriately laughed. Grandmother addressed the younger child, who also stated, “I don’t want to talk to you.” Rather than asking the children why they did not want to talk to her, Grandmother invalidated the children’s statements. Grandmother showed no desire to understand why the children stated that they did not want to talk to her. Similarly, Grandmother does not honor Father or Mother’s wishes.”
MAUREEN G. MULVANEY via her legal counsel, CHARMAINE JOY V. LUMBRE, sent a settlement offer letter via Email to ILYN O. OLESEN and DAVID C. OLESEN in which she stated:
“(As their grandmother, she has named them as beneficiaries in her will. She wants to ensure that the children can be easily contacted should anything happen to her. This is a precaution driven by her desire to secure their future, even after her passing. Ensuring that Ms. Mulvaney is aware of their location is a simple way to safeguard their interests.) “
“OPTION 2: Ms. Mulvaney continues her Legal Efforts to Regain Video Calls and Physical Visitations with her grandchildren in the Philippines
Ms. Mulvaney will continue her legal efforts to enforce her grandparent right to video calls and physical visitations with Mikayla and Matthew in the Philippines.
She recognizes that to fully maximize the rights granted to her by the Court of Arizona, she needs to be near her grandchildren. And so, she will consider a move to the Philippines which will allow her the ability to be physically present in court so she can continue her efforts to regain her legal right to make-up video calls and physical visitation with Mikayla and Matthew.”
Everyone Maureen is litigating against has left the United States of America.
The case continues.
Maureen showed up at the children's school. She was brought to the school by her attorney. Again Maureen does whatever she wants. Maureen did not get to see the children.
Maureen has decided to ask the judge in Arizona to certify the previous judges (LISA WAHLIN) orders. Well there is a new judge. A Comissioner (GREGORY J. GNEPPER), actually.As of August 24th 2025 the Arizona court has not responded to this request.
Maureen has filed a second petition in the Philippines to collect $1,979.00 and $978.66 for a total of $2,957.66 from the Olesen Family for payment of judgements. She doesn't need the money. It's part of her plan.
The Judge (FRANZ RAYMOND P. ASPA) has issued an order for Maureens attorney regarding compliance.
It seems the case in Boyd county has been closed, effectively putting the case in limbo without resolution. A request must be made to the judge to reopen.
Maureen's attorney seems to think they are done in Arizona.
