OK .. just one question if John Mohammed was married to Lee Malvo mother .. then why would she have to jump ship??

And how did Michelle get this information so fast??

I'm guessing she gets it the same way Bill Gertz gets his info... from sources he's developed on the inside. They probably gave her a "heads up."
From the article...

He was apprehended by the Border Patrol in Bellingham, Wash., in December 2001, but was then let go by the INS district in Seattle in clear violation of federal law and contrary to what the arresting Border Patrol officers intended, according to my law enforcement sources.
According to INS records I obtained, Malvo was arrested by Border Patrol agents in Bellingham, Wash., on December 19, 2001. Local police called the Border Patrol during an incident involving "some sort of custody dispute" between Malvo's mother, Uma Sceon James, and John Mohammed (the ex-Army soldier with black radical Muslim ties now at the center of the sniper investigation). James admitted that six months earlier, "she and her son were passengers on a cargo ship that was filled with 'illegal asians (sic).' They were all off loaded in the Miami, FL area where she immediately located work at the Red Lobster in Ft. Myers, FL."

I'm not aware that John Mohammed was married to Malvo's mother. Reports today state that Malvo isn't his stepson.

Well the reports I head that Malvo wasn't HIS son .. they said nothing about being a step son .. but I could be wrong

However, Michelle mentions the reason why the Border Patrol was brought into this was because of some sort of custody dispute

If John Mohammed wasn't married to her .. then what reason would there be for a custody dispute?

"some sort of custody dispute" was probably the mother objecting to her son taking up with that "no count" Mohammed, rather than a more conventional dispute involving "exes" or estranged parents of a kid or kids. It's easy to see that the Border Patrol could get this part wrong, as it's not their concern. The illegal status of the kid and his mother was their concern.
