Now 18, it is obviously legal for her to do anything fly alone. She was at the airport ready to fly and there was little her parents could do to stop her.
One family member told TV5 “I’m just really scared. I hope that she comes back safe.”
“I love them very much,” Lester said about her family Wednesday morning at the Airport. “I’m just hoping to stay safe. That’s about it.”
Katharine Lester’s mother released this statement to TV5:
“I would like to thank Judge Kent Renee Wood and the Caro, Mich. police department for giving our family one year with Katharine. It meant the world to us to have the time with her. Please pray for our family.”
Unfortunately for the family, Katharine Lester’s ticket was one-way. But I can’t help thinking that if Lester was perhaps treated in a different manner in her situation at the age of 16, she might not have wanted to meet her Palestinian MySpace ‘friend’ later on. - Source: From Product Reviews Net Blog
