I can think of worse reasons to be arrested. Poor woman. Poor child. Prayers for them.
“Ex-lesbian”
Better late than never, I suppose. Too bad she had to screw up another life in the process.
Leave the country, until the child is grown.............
Homosexuality destroys society. And this is more proof that we never needed to see.
We have to protest this. Can’t anybody in the Christian Coalition or a popular talk radio host bring attention to this story organize a protest against this anti-family, anti-G-d Judge? WTH is Bill O’Reilly on this?
This judge is making a horrible mistake and the child will pay for it. Why is the judge doing this? Is he completely out of his mind?
If she was a smart women she got a passport long before it came to this and they are now living in a country with no extradition treaty with the USA.
It wouldn't matter. Virtually every country in the world is a signatory to Hague and UN treaties against child-stealing. Wherever this woman goes (irrespective if that country does or does not have a formal extradition treaty with the US), with very few exceptions, she would be arrested, and even if she wouldn't be extradited back to the US, the child would be returned to the US.
These treaties were the foundation for the argument that eventually prevailed to return the US child in Brazil back to his New Jersey father.
See my post #10.
The FACTS of the case seem to be:
“Miller gave birth to Isabella...Her daughter has no biological relationship with Jenkins.”
What contorted mental constructions, what ephemeral abstractions must the judge be considering to want to take this child from her mother!
We need an underground railroad for evil judges such as this, to escape their clutches...just like the slaves escaped from the evil of slavery.
This literally makes me sick to my stomach. Their is no law whatsoever that compels a woman to give up her natural-born child to someone she had a sexual relationship with.
It’s like a woman being forced to give her baby over to a man she met in a bar and had a one-night stand with.
God help this country when evil men like this wear the robes of justice.

There’s a surprising amount of contempt for law and order on FR....
I have noticed that. This woman has no one to blame but herself for this mess. She failed to make an appearance at a number of hearings. So, as to be expected when a litigant is absent, the judge ruled against that litigant. If she had been responsible from the very beginning, almost all of this mishegas could have been avoided.
In this case, the law is an ass.
The Vatican....................
Oh boy, here we go...the “Blame Lisa first” crowd.
She’s doing what I would do, tho — dropping off the face of the earth. She should seek sanctuary. And take this to the Supreme Court.
Yes there is. It's 28 USC § 1738A, Full faith and Credit for Child Custody Determinations.
The Vermont court made a visitation determination based on VT law. This biological mother elected to ignore that order when she moved to VA. The former domestic partner sued to enforce the visitation order, and when the biological mother refused to particpate in good-faith with those proceedings, the court ruled against her. No surprise.
No one held a gun to this woman and forced her to live with and engage in a lesbian relationship with her "partner". She entered into legally binding agreements - either implicit or explicit - that gave her "partner" certain parental rights. In this country, contracts matter. When you enter into them in good faith, you don't just get to change your mind when you change your personal philosophy. The court did what it should have - enforced the law and the contract.
