A lawyer for 10 U.S. missionaries detained in Haiti says parents of the children they're suspected of kidnapping told a judge they freely handed over their kids.
Aviol Fleurant says the parents' testimony means no law was broken, and "we can't talk any more about trafficking of human beings."
Fleurant said Tuesday he's "confident" the judge will dismiss the case.
(This group might not had broken the law but there is a right way to do things. I believe this group meant well but instead of taking kids out of Haiti they should have stayed in Haiti and worked with a Christian group who was already in that nation.
