TIM KINLEY IS IN JAIL FOR BEING A CHRISTIAN ???
History: Tim married in his church. He adopts her out-of-wedlock child and they have two children of their own. Tim's wife decides she wants another man. She takes the children and leaves. She files for divorce. She shows up at church with her boyfriend and the children. Tim speaks to the pastor, saying she can't attend church with her boyfriend and tries to get marriage counseling.
Instead of marriage counseling, wife gets a restraining order against Tim, gets the judge to sign an order that Tim is not allowed to teach the children Bible lessons and Tim has to take a psychiatric exam.
Tim has never beaten his children or wife.
Tim "passed" the psychiatric exam.
Tim has never been found in court to be an "unfit" parent.
Tim is a member of the Baptist church.
Tim's wife has refused to allow Tim to see his children.
After YEARS, and tons of money, Tim Kinley finally got the Court of Appeals to overturn the judge's order that he could not teach his children Bible lessons.
He is broke.
He cannot pay child support.
He was put in jail because he is broke and cannot pay child support.
If he had not taught his children Bible lessons he would not have spent his time, money and energy getting the judge's order overturned.
He is in jail because he is a Christian.
He believes HE should have been given full custody of his children.
But he hasn't even been allowed to see his children, even with a court order that says he can. When he went to court to complain that he has been denied seeing his children, the judge ignored him.
Tim finally "won" in the Minnesota Court of Appeals and it was decided that the judge who ordered Tim not to teach his children Bible lessons violated Tim's constitutionally secured rights. Before AND after that decision, Tim's ex-wife has refused to allow Tim to see his children. AFTER Tim won in the appellate court, they went after him for being broke.
On Tuesday, February 16th, the judge that ordered the warrant for Tim Kinley's arrest will hear the motion to release Tim from jail.
We need EVERYONE that knows Tim, or that believes a FATHER has the RIGHT to parent his children COME TO THE HEARING.
NOTHING changes until WE make it change.
