Sharyn Hakken

Joshua and Sharyn Hauser Hakkens lead the ideal life in Tampa, Florida. They were both environmental engineers, Joshua at Hahn Engineering, Incorporated; and Sharyn at Hanecki Consulting Engineers, Incorporated, where she worked from 2001 through 2011, both located in downtown Tampa. They were both smaller engineering companies with way under fifty employees, but then Joshua only had professional engineering training through his failed attempt at the United States Air Force Academy in Colorado Springs, Colorado, that lasted.......about two years; and Sharyn, although had both a Bachelor's and Master's degree in Environmental and Geophysical Sciences, it was obtained at the very non-competitive University of South Florida, located in Tampa, too, no less. They even bought a fixer-upper ranch style house in Tampa, near where both of them worked. Shortly after the birth of their two children, Chase, and Cole, something very dreadful happened. With increased illegal drug usage, because of more time on both of their hands, paranoia stemming from Joshua's failed military career began to consume their lives. Poor Sharyn, literally, was forced to make a decision: Move in with her parents, Patricia and Bob Hauser; her brother, Robert Hauser, III, was a States Attorney with Pinellas County, assigned specifically to child custody cases, and her sister-in-law, Anna Patton Hauser was a case manager for the Guardian ad Litum program, in the same county, so she had her ammunition in tow; or follow her husband Josh's Armageddon Ideologies, with suppressed anger at the United States Air Force for raping him, "more times than he could possibly count," into oblivion. Sharyn, maybe resentful that her brother Rob, the big state's attorney, who always was her family's favorite, chose the path of insanity that trekked toward a downward spiral taking her to far off Louisiana, that would eventually end, in even further, Havana, Cuba, of all places, because you see Cuba helped any American on the run from United States Federal paranoia every day of the week, or so Josh thought. Sharyn Hakken: I Love you to Insanity is the unauthorized biography of one woman's struggle with the decision she made to choose love over the safety and welfare of her own children, and the catastrophic consequences that occurred, as a result of that dreadful choice she made in a negative-three-star hotel room in June 2012, in Slidell, Louisiana, culminating in her own parents' living room, on April 3rd, 2013, that resulted in her eventual arrest and extradition from Havana, Cuba, back to the United States, shortly after, on April 10th 2013.
