As a foreign student the police should have contacted the consulate but being strip searched was vile , no wonder she won her lawsuit.

Didn't say she hated her country.

Yes, she was. The charges were dropped.

The city eventually dropped charges, but only after she was kept in jail and separated from her child - This is in bold before the article.

Below are all directly from the article:

The NYPD booked Sørensen and Wardlaw for child endangerment and disorderly conduct.

She was placed in jail for 36 hours, while her daughter was put in foster care by the city's welfare services.

She remained in New York for a few more weeks because of summonses to civil and criminal court.

Charges against Sørensen were eventually dropped after she agreed to leave the United States.


Apparently, you didn't read the article very well.

I read the article. She was arrested but all charges were dropped . So your statement " Anti criminals cashing in on their illegal actions?" Isn't valid .


They violated her rights and she won her lawsuit. She is not a criminal and lives in another country with her husband and two children. Liv attends college and will design the English book cover for her mother.

Actually, it turns out that based on your posts here, you're anti-capitalist. She is simply telling her story. She was never convicted of a crime. Even if she was, many people who were convicted write about their stories to make a living. The thing about capitalism... if you don't like the product, don't purchase it. But don't shove your anti-capitalistic views down everyone's throats like you are doing here.

Also, America doesn't have to bend or change it's laws to accommodate the cultural needs of immigrants.



Wonder how the Mohawks, Apache or Cherokee felt about this? Or does that matter?

Yeah, no sympathy from me. I never would have done it for certain anywhere.
It is VERY common practice in Denmark.

The idea of leaving a baby outside is crazy to me, I'm not a fan of helicopter parenting but when they're that young I think you should have an eye on them at all times.

It is true that this is done in other culture's. It just reinforces the fact that people need to be totally aware of what the laws ans cultural norms are when they immigrate....and then assimilate.
