MAY 28--Turns out the Florida woman who is suing for the right to wear a Muslim headdress in a driver's license photograph has previously been subjected to an, um, unveiled government portrait. Following her 1997 conversion to Islam, Sultaana Freeman (formerly Sandra Keller) was arrested in Decatur, Illinois for battering a foster child. Freeman, 35, pleaded guilty in 1999 to felony aggravated battery and was sentenced to 18 months probation. As a result of the conviction, state officials removed two foster children from Freeman's care. The mug shot of the felonious Freeman (below left) was taken after her arrest in the Illinois case. Freeman returned to the dock this week--that's her testifying in the below right photo--to challenge Florida rules requiring prospective drivers to submit to unveiled photos for their licenses. Last year, Freeman sued the state after her license was revoked when she failed to allow officials to photograph her sans headdress. State officials contend that, in light of the September 11 attacks, it is crucial that all motorists now be photographed in an unadorned state. (1 page)

You ever see "Enter the Ninja"? Stellar movie!

[lilylangtree]

No wonder she didn't want to show her felonious face. The woman is a criminal.

[Hammerhead]

I saw 'Beverly Hills Ninja'.

Does that count?

No wonder she didn't want to show her felonious face. The woman is a criminal.

An ugly criminal.

[Catspaw]

She's being represented by the ACLU.

I know you're shocked.

[Lonesome in Massachussets]

Definitely a two bagger.

How does Saudi Arabia deal with this problem? Ahh thats right they don't let women drive. If this woman wants to be a good muslim convert maybe she should give up driving, that way she wont need a license. Problem solved.

She is being revealed for what/who she truly is...a felon. She wanted to hide her identity rather than support her 'religion', imo. If she were truly devoted to Islam then she wouldn't be driving AT ALL.

Poor excuse of a human being.

Does Crist know she's a felon or re: the license? This was on Court tv and it's ridiculous. Jeb already said on Hannity & Colmes that it was ridiculous; he respected her religious practices but the full face photo was a requirement in his opinion. He said "all you can see is some of her eyeballs." He's so direct.

[gitmo]

She's technically OK. Battering a kid gives you 1 free face-flashing.

If she gets away with wearing a burka why can't Senator Byrd (aka "Sheets") start wearing a KKK mask?

[windchime]

I saw Crist on TV (I think Greta FNC) regarding the license issue. My question is regarding her status as a felon. No wonder she wants to wear covering over her face. Can't be identified with, as Jeb said, "part of her eyeballs showing". His interview, parts 1 & 2 were super!

Just thought you may have heard something through the grapevine.

She seems more than a little egotistical. Isn't a Sultana a female Sultan?

[floriduh voter]

Crist was on Fox too? I missed that. Did the girl in the berka lose her case today? I thought so.

In a few years, I'll probably be supporting Crist for Governor. He is taking some real stands regarding civil rights, homestead rights and fraud. Whatta guy. But the berka babe is only 19. If she gets to cover up, then all the REAL terrorists will come to Florida to get their licenses and KABOOM. She's too dumb to realize it's not her we're concerned about. It's the precedent!!!

[floriduh voter]

My error. I just posted that she was 19. Apparently, she's older than that. We can't have individuals changing our laws and setting precedents that put all of us at risk; especially in the name of religion. I am sick up to my eyeballs of the ACLU on the muslim bandwagon. Aren't there any muslim attorneys out there?

[windchime]

"Crist was on Fox too?"

Yes, last week. He represented the state of Florida, of course, and there was a rep from the ACLU on the felon's behalf. No mention was made of her record and, as someone has stated on this thread, it may not be something that can be considered relevant to this case.

The decision on whether she has to show her face for a photo on her driver's license is tomorrow. It will be interesting to see what the judge decides.
