A new victim at TurnAbout Ranch
Nihilanthic:
Curious question:
That young woman has legal rights, but has no way to exercise them.
Isn't it illegal to cut off someone from contact with legal representation under the law?
If she DOES get an attourney she could file a writ of habeas corupus against TAR, right?
EDIT:

Ah, good ole wikipedia, thorn in the side of programs just like all other forms of TALKING OUT OF GROUP.
Habeas corpus ad subjiciendum
Known as the "Great Writ", the writ of habeas corpus ad subjiciendum is a legal proceeding in which an individual held in custody can challenge the propriety of that custody under the law. The prisoner, or some other person on his behalf (for example, where the prisoner is being held incommunicado), may petition the court or an individual judge for a writ of habeas corpus.
Although the form of the writ of habeas corpus implies that the prisoner is brought to the court in order for the legality of the imprisonment to be examined, modern practice is to have a hearing with both parties present on whether the writ should issue, rather than issuing the writ immediately and waiting for the return of the writ by the addressee before the legality of the detention is examined. The prisoner can then be released or bailed by order of the court without having to be produced before it.
The right of habeas corpus?or rather, the right to petition for the writ?has long been celebrated as the most efficient safeguard of the liberty of the subject. Dicey wrote that the Habeas Corpus Acts "declare no principle and define no rights, but they are for practical purposes worth a hundred constitutional articles guaranteeing individual liberty". In most countries, however, the procedure of habeas corpus can be suspended in time of national emergency. In most civil law jurisdictions, comparable provisions exist, but they are generally not called "habeas corpus".[1]

These Utah legislators ought to be damn ashamed of themselves.

Covergaard:
I got a message that she is out now.
I hope that her family can help her to overcome what she has been put through.
Merry christmas to her and of course also to the poor soules still locked up in such places.
Covergaard:
In this forum it was revealed which church, they use regardless of the belief the students have.
Some of the relatives used that information to get her to sign a document.
She went to court.

but the result was not good.

However, I got a message that confirmed that she was free from a friend of hers. So the mother must have taken the advice from the judge serious. They properly wont have any statement about the violent behaviour of the step-dad testified in court, so the mother must have given up.
I had to admit that I took a glas of wine in order to celebrate and I am also proud that I got the wikipedia page on Turnabout Ranch finished this morning.
