US prosecutors dismiss charges in Vt. lesbian case

MONTPELIER, Vt. — Federal prosecutors have worked out a deal with an American missionary in Nicaragua that may help them find a woman who fled the country in a custody dispute with her former lesbian partner, court documents show.

Prosecutors have decided to drop criminal charges against Timothy David "Timo" Miller in exchange for his testimony in future proceedings in the case, according to Oct. 28 documents.

Miller was charged with helping Lisa Miller, who is no relation to him, flee the United States with her 9-year-old daughter Isabella in defiance of a Vermont court order that granted custody to her former partner, Janet Jenkins.

Prior to his April arrest, Timothy Miller had been working as a missionary in Nicaragua. The FBI is continuing to investigate the case against Lisa Miller of Forest, Va., whose whereabouts are unknown.

1. So...
...this woman gets married and she and her wife have a baby. THEN....said woman renounces her sexuality and leaves the country with the kid.

I have no sympathy for this woman, Miller or the asshole that is shielding her from letting their child see its other mother.

Seriously - what a dick (yes, I recognize the irony) move to do this. Lisa Miller needs to be found, arrested and charged with kidnapping -- among other crimes.

Damn...I do despise religion.
