Unprecedented Moonies custody ruling shocks Bay Area families
Five families won 30 day temporary custody to deprogram their 21 to 26 year old children from Rev Sun Myung Moon's Unification Church, in a case called unprecedented by Judge $ Lee Vavaris. The ruling allows access to church materials and attorneys while demanding parental supervision during any deprogramming efforts. The decision sparks an appeal threat from the children's attorney and highlights tensions over religious freedom and parental rights.
