Judge orders Fathima Rifqa Bary to return to Ohio

An Orange County judge ordered Ohio teen runaway Fathima Rifqa Bary back to that state, ending the 17-year-old girl's three-month stay in Florida as she battled her parents over her religious freedom and allegations of abuse.

Circuit Judge Daniel Dawson signed an order Friday afternoon asking the Florida Department of Children and Families to make arrangements to send Rifqa back to Ohio, where she is bound for a new stint with a foster family.

A DCF spokeswoman confirmed her agency received Dawson's ruling.

"This order indicates that the Court has relinquished its emergency jurisdiction and orders the Department to arrange the transportation of the child to the proper authorities with Franklin County Children Services in Ohio," spokeswoman Carrie Hoeppner said.

Hoeppner said DCF will not discuss details of Rifqa's transfer from a foster family in Central Florida to one in Ohio. She cited safety reasons.

Rifqa's private attorney, John Stemberger, has not returned phone calls seeking comment.

Reached by phone Friday afternoon, Rifqa's father, Mohamed Bary, was laughing and giddy during a brief conversation with the Orlando Sentinel. He declined comment, though, citing a gag order in the case.

Bary has been fighting to get his daughter back home since the family reported her missing in mid-July. That's when Rifqa hopped a Greyhound bus -- under an assumed name, she said later -- and arrived in Orlando.

Rifqa said she feared her Muslim father would harm or kill her because she converted to Christianity.

Investigators in Florida and Ohio said they found no threats against Rifqa.

In Orlando, Rifqa sought shelter with husband-and-wife pastors in Orlando and lived with their family for several weeks before she fell into the care of DCF.

She has been living with a foster family in Central Florida while the local court determined her fate.

Last week, Dawson decided Rifqa's case should be handled in Ohio.

Interesting; if they are TRULY Muslim, they have to kill her. Pretty clear.

When will we wake up and learn that these people are freakin' savages bent on total domination?

Judge limits runaway convert's phone, Internet use

COLUMBUS, Ohio — An Ohio judge on Tuesday ordered the state to supervise the telephone and Internet use of a teenage girl who says she ran away to Florida because she feared her father would harm or kill her for converting from Islam to Christianity.

Franklin County Juvenile Magistrate Mary Goodrich put the restrictions on Rifqa Bary, 17, at the request of the county children's services agency. The girl, of suburban New Albany, is to be placed in the agency's custody when she returns to Ohio.

Bary disappeared July 19 and police used phone and computer records to track her to the Rev. Blake Lorenz, pastor of Orlando, Fla.-based Global Revolution Church.

Authorities said the teen had met him online, through a prayer group on Facebook.

Bary's father has denied the girl's claims and a Florida Department of Law Enforcement investigation found no credible threats to the girl.

Bary's use of Facebook was one issue that led to the situation, said Jim Zorn, a children's services attorney, who asked Goodrich to restrict Bary from using the Internet and her cell phone.

"What we want to restrict is the other people, the other organizations, the other forces, that have interjected themselves into this case inappropriately, and has caused the additional problems that we've seen," Zorn said.

The girl's parents supported the restrictions, saying through their attorney they were concerned about her interacting with adults over the Internet.

"As you know, there's a lot of danger and concern about that with children," said their attorney, Omar Tarazi.

Kort Gatterdam, an attorney representing the girl, opposed the request, saying problems were caused by a conflict between the girl and her parents, not the Internet.

"We're making some assumptions, without evidence in the record, that she has done something improper talking to people on Facebook. There's no evidence of that," Gatterdam told the judge.

"If the goal here is normalcy and reunification or whatever, this is not the way to go."

I'm sure if this girl is killed, the media will spin it to be a case of a backward immigrant family following old customs. An aberration not truly reflecting 'modern' Islam in the United States.

Forget the fact that the family lives in New Albany, one of the most exclusive and well to do areas in central Ohio.

As I understand it, the family is here illegally.

How long does it take to deport them?

Under "normal" circumstances this family would not be targeted by Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) for arrest and deportation. Although they, apparently, are in the United States illegally, ICE only has the resources and personnel to target aliens convicted of serious criminal violations of the law. After they kill her ICE might deport them...maybe.
