Christian pastor who aided ex-Muslim Rifqa Bary facing prosecution

Over at Atlas Shrugs Pamela has a most disquieting report about legal maneuvering against Brian Williams, the Christian pastor who helped Rifqa Bary when she fled from her home in fear for her life after her conversion from Islam to Christianity was discovered. Now we know why the CAIR lawyer for Rifqa's parents pursued the "unruly" charge to which Rifqa unwisely, at the insistence of her clueless attorneys, pled guilty. They hope to use it as a stick to beat Rifqa's defenders.

Last week I reported on CAIR's latest move to stop any converts out of Islam and any Christians who might try to help these desperate, brave victims.

Back on January 19th, Rifqa Bary was tricked into pleading guilty to the "unruly" charges against her in exchange for a dependency deal that the Bary parents and their CAIR-appointed attorney have since reneged on, there have been new developments in the case.

The prosecutor, under pressure from powerful and influential CAIR, is pursuing charges against Brian Williams, the pastor and friend whom she contacted after she ran away.

The prosecution is seeking to indict Brian Williams on two charges -- contributing to the "unruliness" of a minor (eureka, now we understand why CAIR demanded a guilty plea in exchange for a meaningless deal with the kuffar) and a second charge of "interference with custody," which carries a sentence of six months to a year.

So now we understand the change in strategy.

Brian Williams is being urged by Rifqa's deal-making attorney, Stemberger-appointed attorney Kort Gotterdam, to plead guilty to a lesser charge. Gotterdam is following the direction of the lawyer who appointed him, John Stemberger, who also brokered broken deals for Rifqa....

But Williams will not do this. More power to him. You can see his remarks in the comments field at Atlas, confirming the veracity of the report there and giving the lie to those who have leveled the false charge that Pamela Geller is passing on rumors, innuendo and hearsay. Of course, the unfolding events of this case demonstrate who is dissembling and concentrating on saving their professional reputations rather than saving Rifqa, and who is telling the truth, more vividly every day.

Hi guys,

Go over to Atlas for some brilliant strategies that are being discussed regarding this case.

CAIR arrogance...the gift that keeps on giving.

God bless Brian Williams. Is there a defense fund that people can contribute to?

My God strengthen Pastor Williams and give him much courage and a bold spirit to fight the Islamic-barbarians and their liberal counterparts.
In Jesus name.Amen

Yes, our prayers are with Pastor Williams. He is a brave and good man.

Three cheers for Pastor Williams!

If Islam had quietly allowed Rifqa to convert to Christianity it would have avoided all this bad publicity.
Going after Brian Williams is another bad move. I fear Allah the Moon God must be storming about His Paradise in a temper. Those Muslims who have brought Allah's religion into such disrepute over Rifqa's apostasy will undoubtedly find themselves bereft of black-eyed houris when they arrive upstairs. Perish the thought but they may even have been marked in the Great Book for entry to the lower and Hotter place. Stuart Parsons

I think this B. S. will backfire on the mozoids, via our strategies and their own lack of intelligence.
