just remember this case

http://www.pinknews.co.uk/2013/12/10/us-pastor-sentenced-for-aiding-lesbian-in-kidnap-of-daughter-calls-for-case-to-be-dismissed/

An American pastor who was sentenced for helping a woman flee to Central America to escape a custody battle with her lesbian partner has said the case should be dismissed as the crime did not take place in Vermont, where he was sentenced.

The Reverend Kenneth Miller was sentenced by a Federal Court in Vermont to 27 months in prison after he was convicted on the charges in August 2012. He was found to have helped Lisa Miller (no relation) and her daughter Isabella illegally leave the US, arranging transport that took the pair from Virginia to Canada, and then on to Nicaragua. They are still believed to be hiding in Central America.

Think on this, a man who aided and abetted both after and before the fact a kidnapping of a child who still hasn't be returned to her mother, got 8 less months than she did. I hope that really pisses you off.
