Former Lesbian Couple Battles Over Child Custody

Written by Rebecca Terrell
Thursday, 31 December 2009 01:00

A seven-year-old girl stands in the crosshairs of a bizarre custody battle between former lesbian domestic partners Lisa Miller and Janet Jenkins. The Wall Street Journal reports that Miller is the child's biological mother and conceived her by artificial insemination while living with Jenkins in Vermont, where they were joined in a civil union in 2001. Miller became a Christian in 2003, renounced the homosexual lifestyle, and moved to Virginia with her then-infant daughter, Isabella Miller-Jenkins.

Jenkins sued for unsupervised visitation, which Vermont Judge William Cohen granted after dissolving the civil union, but Miller refused to comply with the court order. She said allowing Isabella to spend time unsupervised with Jenkins would violate her Christian principles. Miller appealed the visitation order to courts in Vermont and Virginia. The VermontTimes Argus reports that Miller's attorneys argued that Isabella has not lived with Jenkins since she was a baby. A doctor who testified in the case said the change could "induce devastating trauma." Miller also expressed concern that Jenkins refuses to take Isabella to church. Jenkins' attorneys denied these claims.

Miller's appeals in both states were unsuccessful, but she remained in contempt. As a result, in November the court awarded Jenkins sole custody. According to the Wall Street Journal, an attorney for Jenkins claimed, "It is Ms. Jenkins' intent when she has custody of Isabella to allow as liberal contact as is possible with her other mother."

Miller tried to delay the transfer, set for January 1, but the court denied that request, too. Now, Miller and Isabella are missing. ABC News reports that no one has seen or heard from either of them since November 20, not even Miller's attorneys.

Under Vermont law, Jenkins is one of Isabella's legally recognized parents. She filed a missing person report on Wednesday since she does not know the whereabouts of her daughter. Her attorney Sarah Star said Jenkins is concerned about Isabella's safety and about Miller's mental stability. ABC News also quoted a professor of constitutional law at Vermont Law School who explained that if the transfer does not take place January 1, the court will likely issue a warrant for Miller's arrest.

Well and that is my basic problem. As I said I don't have a problem when it is just the couple involved. But a legal marriage effect more than just the couple. I think I mentioned in one post that there is some evidence to support the idea that abuse is greater in homosexual homes.

Homosexuals more likely to molest kids, study reports

Homosexuals and the Pedophile Connection

I have not much to say if two men or two women want to have sex or be together or whatever. That is to say, I disagree with it, but it's not really my business and this sort of thing is certainly not new and they'll do what they do anyway.

However, a legal contract sanctioned by the State and/or Church is disagreeable.

Yeah, it's no shock that there's a connection between homosexuality and pedophilia.

His father loved him and wanted to care for him, just because he was in Cuba doesn't make him unfit.

I'd say that Fidel Castro wanted the child more than his dad more than likely. It was a matter of the GOVERNMENT of Cuba wanting that kid, and without their involvement it never would have panned out the way it did.

Oh hey, this is what little Elian is up to these days. Yeah, he was MUCH better off going to Cuba....

Again with a baseless assumption. Come on, FormerLurker, you have no right to say that the father didn't want his child. Just as you do not know that heart of the ex-wife in this case who has spent a fortune working through the courts for her parental rights. All you know is that she is a lesbian, which in your mind, means she is an abuser and "unfit" to parent.

Put the government of Cuba aside, are you saying that the father of Elian Gonzalez had no parental rights simply because he lived in Cuba? It's not a question of better off, it is a question of parental rights. Why is that so hard for you to comprehend?

Like I said, I don't agree with how the goobermint handled that case. Are you suggesting the boy should have been severed from his father and the father should have had no right to redress the government for the return of his son?

Do you support extraordinary rendition in child custody cases such as this? What was the boy's father to do? Give up because the "loving family" in the US wanted to keep his son?

I agree with your concern. Gay marriage is a legal gateway to adoption. As a society we are charged with protecting children. Permitting gay couples to adopt children flies in the face of society's primary responsibility to protect minors. Statistically when one looks at the % of gays in the general population and the rate of child abuse within that sector, it's an alarmingly high rate. But this rate of child abuse is conveniently omitted in any discussion about gay marriage "rights." From your first article link [ and I suspect the quoted abuse rate does not even include the Catholic Church homosexual priest pederest abuse cases] the stats should give a real world jolt to everyone, even the most idealistic left wing posters and lurkers:

"Since heterosexuals outnumber the homosexual population about 44 to 1, as a group the incidence of homosexuals molesting children is up to 40 times greater than heterosexuals, she said."

A quick Google search proves you wrong...

Gay rights campaigner led a double life as leader of paedophile ring that carried out a catalogue of child abuse

A paedophile ring has been smashed after eight men were found guilty of a horrifying catalogue of more than 50 child pornography and abuse charges. Among the crimes was a shocking sexual attack carried out on a three-month-old baby boy by an executive adviser on child sex issues. James Rennie, chief executive of a publicly-funded gay rights group, was one of the men exposed yesterday as members of Scotland's biggest paedophile ring. Rennie, 38, molested the toddler son of unsuspecting friends - a little boy he had been trusted to babysit - recording the abuse and sharing it with other perverts. In the course of the police investigation, the boy's parents were forced to watch a video of their baby son being violated by Rennie.

Why did he stay in Cuba when the rest of his family left? Apparently he loved Cuba more than he loved his kid.

Do you think snatching up this little girl from her real mother and handing her to a practicing lesbain with NO EMOTIONAL TIE to this child will make her happy and well adjusted?

You do not know that the ex-wife has "no emotional tie" to the child. A stable life, not on the run is a good start to happiness. Her mom on the run had been granted custody, with visitation granted to the ex-wife. Why is compliance out of the question? She couldn't prove the ex-wife unfit. If munching carpet makes on unfit, than mommy on the run is equally unfit.

Teaching a kid to face mistakes head on is a good road to happiness, not stacking up a bunch of skeletons and dirty laundry in the closet or running from "mistakes" in life. This is true teaching toward well adjustment....mom on the run seems incapable of grasping such concepts.

Another baseless allegation to suit your own opinion about this case:

According to the Washington Post, Elián's father Juan Miguel González Quintana had telephoned Lázaro from Cuba on November 22, 1999, to advise that Elián and his mother had left Cuba without Juan Miguel's knowledge, and to watch for their arrival.

The father didn't even know until after the boy and his mother were at sea.

I'm asking you for the evidence in regards to THIS LESBIAN, not gay men who are parenting. As I previoulsy stated, I'm bias about gay men adopting and I feel it does put children at risk.

Now, cough up the evidence that this woman in this case is unfit to parent and intends to turn the little girl into a carpet muncher. The court couldn't find any evidence, but you continue to make these idiotic statements. EVIDENCE FOR THIS CASE is the request at hand.

So abraxas, while THIS particular woman may or may not have an interest in molesting young girls, the chances are HIGH that she does.

For that very reason the court should have sided with the biological mother who has renounced the gay lifestyle and is trying to give her child a normal life.

Regardless, it is for this very reason the government should either NOT allow gay adoption or simply refuse to allow gay marriages in the first place since it can and does lead to serious issues far worse than those involved in normal divorces when things don't work out. I could care less about either the mother or her former lover, I care about the true victim here and that is this innocent little girl.

Do you think this little 7 year-old should be torn from her actual mother whom she's lived with her entire life, and be forced to live with a woman living a perverse lifestyle, whom the child doesn't even know?

Regardless if the woman is a molestor nor not, this still isn't right.

Perhaps because he was against leaving in the first place, and the mother couldn't trust telling him ahead of time that she was planning on leaving.

You do not know that the ex-wife has "no emotional tie" to the child.

The child was two years old when she last saw the lesbain lover, and probably doesn't even remember her. She is now 7, probably in 2nd grade, and more interested in Hello Kitty, her friends at school, and being with her mother rather than hanging out with a stranger who used to lick her mother's vagina.

Again, this is your opinion, not a fact.

Who is responsible for the court's decision? Mom on the run. A mother who wants to protect her child would have considered the consequences of her actions, from beginning to end. All this fighting and moving to keep the ex- wife from the child couldn't have been healthy or in any way promoted well adjustment.

Do you run from your mistakes? I don't and I won't give a free pass for mom on the run to do this either. As a mother, I find her actions dispicable. She put her child in this position under the guise of being a "Christian" and as is the case in life, each action has a consequence. When the police track her down and her child is taken from her, she will have no one to blame but herself.

There is no evidence that the child would "live a normal life" with former carpet munching mommy. None. Maybe the ex-wife has hung on this long, fighting in court because mommy on the run isn't all that normal herself. Did you ever consider that?

Making her child a fugative. Showing her child that running from mistakes is the correct course of action. Uprooting this child from all the homes that she has known. Pushing religious fundamentalism on her child to atone for her own sins. Using her newly minted Christianity as an excuse to ignore the courts.

No, it is NOT an opinion that this little girl has little or no recollection of this other woman, she was TWO years old when she last saw her, and more than likely thinks she was just a friend of her mom.

If the other parent had been a man, and the biological mother took off with the kid, there would be little or no action on the part of the government to track the mother down and force her to cough up the child.

It's only because it's a gay matter that this is getting so much attention and the government becomes so concerned and actually acts as if it cares about a "parent's rights".

Mom on the run asked the court to determine custody. She brought the court case and fled the state, hoping to have the laws of another state apply. Funny, you don't see any personal responsiblity for the actions of mom on the run.........she's just a poor victim of her own stupidity. How liberal of you, FL.

What it comes down to abraxas is that you appear to be of the opinion since the mother made a bad decision in her past, the child must be punished, simply because some lesbain wants some revenge against the child's mother.

I already told you I could care less about EITHER "former partner", it's the little girl I'm concerned about. If the mom was smart she would have asked for a Guardian Ad Litem for her daughter, in order to stand up for the child's rights in court.

Lurker you are about the only one with morals and common sense on this matter.

We don't always (in fact seldom) agree on things here Stone, but here we're obviously on the same page.

No, it is NOT an opinion that this little girl has little or no recollection of this other woman, she was TWO years old when she last saw her, and more than likely thinks she was just a friend of her mom.

Are you saying that parents do not bond with a child who is two and under? Are you saying the child doesn't bond with parents prior to the age of two. I'm here to tell you that you're wrong. Bonding on both sides is firmly established.

What is this "just a friend of her mom" crap? The two women were married, made a nursery together, changed diapers together, got up 2 am for feedings, ooohed and aaahhhed of over the first smile, first crawling, first steps. You're not a parent are you?

That's a sad commentary if you think that dad's can't get action for their parental rights in court. That says more about our crappy system than the merits of this case.

Probably not in school at all since she and her mother are now fugatives.

Had her mother complied with court orders, this woman wouldn't be a stranger nor would she have been granted full custody of the child.

When the govt tells you to turn in your guns. You better comply or you will be a very bad person. very very bad.

So I guess if the government told you to hand over your kid to someone you feel is a threat to your child's safety and psychological well-being, whom you know is doing such a thing out of pure spite and revenge, you'd happily comply

What a stupid analogy!! I'm not an idiot like this former carpet muncher who has never proven any threat to her child's safety or psychological danger in regards to her ex-wife.

No, I don't carry on with court battles based on revenge and spite like this mom on the run. If I ask the court to determine a case, I respect the court's decision.

I would wager that we have more common interests then not. I just state mine in a more mean and shocking manner.

Read the article again abraxas. It was the jilted lesbain who initiated the court battle, not the mother.

"Jenkins sued for unsupervised visitation, which Vermont Judge William Cohen granted after dissolving the civil union"

Jenkins is not the child's mother, she is the jilted gay lover.

Just when I think that analogies couldn't get any more stupid.....you prove me wrong.

This isn't a second amendment issue. This former carpet muncher moved to this state to be a part of it's gay marriage promotion. Oh, but now she changed her mind so the law should no longer apply to her.

I live in open carry states. I wouldn't live in an anti-second amendment state, which is also the most likely states to promote gay marriage.

You read it again. The court decision was part of the initial splitting of the sheets:

Jenkins sued for unsupervised visitation, which Vermont Judge William Cohen granted after dissolving the civil union, but Miller refused to comply with the court order.

When you file your motion and go through the divorce courts, it is customary to determine child custody and visitation at that time.

Your point?

This is referring to a blessing of liberty and prosperity. However, you think liberty only applies to some of the people some of the time when you deem that interpretation of liberty to be in line with your interpretation of morality.
