Thanks for the ping.
Indeed. Nothing could be more appropriate than to have Bill Clinton in charge of Laura Silsby's fate. She'd be down on her knees sucking in a second if she got the chance. But too bad for her, she's a pudgy, unattractive middle-aged loser who's now known to the whole world as a con artist, and Bill can still get prettier younger hussies to service him. And it's not clear that anyone in the US really wants her back. Plenty of her creditors and former employees want their money, but since she doesn't have any and isn't going to have any, they've got no use for her.
Even the situation with her two minor children is shaky. A judge forced her to turn over her children's passports in December, after her husband got wind that she was telling people she was going to be "leaving the country". She had also taken her children to the Dominican Republic in July, apparently on her first trip there with Coulter re trying to set up the "orphanage", and her ex-husband took issue with that. http://www.idahostatesman.com/localnews/story/1071122.html Sounds like the judge believed she might be trying to abscond with the children in violation of whatever the custody order was. If her ex-husband didn't already have primary custody, I'm sure he will going forward. And what do you tell kids when their mother has just been exposed to the whole world as a con artist who tried to exploit poor Haitian children for her own gain, and succeeded in exploiting gullible but well-intentioned church folks for her own gain for quite a few months? Really, at this point her kids are better off without her.
The funny thing is that the Haitian judges, who are accustomed to making their living by extorting bribes in exchange for lenient or nonexistent sentences, have got themselves a genuinely guilty-as-sin US citizen, and one who is now very high profile to boot, but despite her having these key features of a major cash cow, they're not likely to get squat for her, because nobody wants her. And the US *will* intervene, quietly but firmly, behind the scenes, if the Haitians attempt to extort money for the freedom of the innocent ones. Tough times for Haitian judges -- their homes are probably rubble, and now their jail is cluttered up with prisoners they can't get any cash for.
What is about kid smugglers you find so endearing?
How much is Bambi paying you for this?
One million dollars.
Or are you doing it out of love of The Wun?
More like lack of love for busybody "missionaries" and kid smugglers.
Maybe they didn’t realize that Obama’s forces were going to be able to infiltrate FR and attack them here.
Oh, no doubt. Folks worldwide live and die as a result of stuff posted here.
As a result of your snarkiness, today the smugglers will not be fed.
Another word from you, and I'll have them thrown into the feral dog pit.
Get a friggin' grip.
I doubt there’s much need for worry. If they weren’t so high profile, there certainly would be, especially for the women, and most especially for that pretty 18 year old girl. But the US government is all over this, with Bill and Hillary Clinton, as well as the Haitian prime minister, all making public statements to the media about it. I expect the jail guards have had it made clear to them that they’ll wish they’d never been born if one of these prisoners gets raped, or otherwise seriously harmed.
LOL! These people are exasperating, aren’t they? It’s clear they simply haven’t read most of the damning information that’s been all over the media, but apparently they’ll rush to defend anyone who fits the profile of white self-described Christian. If this crew had been Muslims and done exactly the same thing, the people who are still defending Silsby would be calling for the whole group to be executed, innocent dupes included.
Guess I still expect the best out of the people here.
Well surprise. There are a handful of trolls here who think Christianity is a disease.
It may come a time soon they will beg for that disease.
Thanks for a great laugh.
Yes, I saw that a little while ago. Ordinarily I might be suspicious of such a late claim coming from a police officer who doesn’t want to be named. However, the January 26th date of this reported previous run is closer to the date the group’s original plan called for, i.e. drive to Haiti on January 23, “gather 100 orphans from the streets and collapsed orphanages”, and return to the DR with them the next day — sounds like Silsby literally envisioned snatching “stray” children who she’d presume to be orphans). http://www.esbctwinfalls.com/clientimages/24453/pdffiles/haiti/nlcrhaitianorphanrescuemission.pdf
(also a local copy, for refenence when the one on the church website disappears: http://www.mikedoughney.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/01/nlcrhaitianorphanrescuemission.pdf )
So I’m assuming this report is true. I think if they’d actually managed to get any children out before they were arrested, that would have been discovered by now.
