They are going through a divorce, she was granted temporary custody until the divorce is settled. Teenagers make up their minds for what ever reason right or wrong, bad or good, and nothing will move them. They always want to go with the least strict parent. I had friends with divorced parents, one week the teen wants to live with the dad, then he says no to something and grounds them, then they stat crying they want to live with mom. They are going through a divorce which means she has temporary custody. Believe it or not judges will listen to what the teenager ahs to say in the final divorce and custody proceedings. But if the parent can't agree on joint custody while the divorce is going through one of them has to be assigned as guardian.

I don’t think so. We are quick to accuse without the facts. The father’s behavior was so bizarre during the news conference and he lied when someone asked him if he knows his daughters whereabout but he hesitated and his lawyer whispered and prompted him to say no. His face shows that he lied then his sister quick to accuse the ex-wife. He brain washed his daughter to run away and hid her because how can Alison cycle from MP to Glendale without a phone or GPS. I’m very familiar with the area as my husband cycle to Glendale on numerous occasions and still use GPS. The father hid the daughter at a friends house and gave her a burner phone. What he did is unbelievable causing mayhem and chaos among our community worrying that alison got kidnap. Sorry but you can’t bribe MP police dept. If what the mother did was wrong, why didn’t the father take Alison to the police department and file a police report of abused.

For her to publicly announce that she was abused, the child protective agency will now have to get involved. I think there is a good chance she will eventually go back to her dad.

That STUPID judge ignored the girl's stated wish to be with her father (a Marine veteran), assumed "motherly love" was needed, and assigned custody to the mother. That strict Asian mother was going to put Alison in a mental ward, that's why she went missing. Also the news failed to mention that Alison walked into ABC News station in Glendale, to make a statement, and that's how she was "found". Now police has arrested the father for "abduction", when in reality the girl run away from her mother, and sought protection from her father. It's like a soap opera. And both the judges and police have made everything worse. Both father and daughter are suffering, and will be confined.

The police are going to make someone pay for it all, and it's not going to be the lady with the rich court daddy

[@tedtran4693]

Because the mon side is rich. Our legal system and police are working only for the rich.

[@gabrielaquinones9527]

You guys are not taking care of Alison. She’s getting abused by her mother. Mom your supposed to take care of your child not abusing her you are a monster you’re the one that needs to in jail not the father he was just protecting her from you. Anyone else abusing her should also go to jail. Your lucky she was found alive the streets are dangerous.

[@bigbigdog]

The mom is a liar.

[@lc6197]

These people gaslighted the dad. Unbelievable!

[@SimonPhoenix-v5q]

This is why social services are a cult of crazies.

[@thegoodthebadthecurious3358]

California family law desperately needs to be reformed!

[@kayang6162]

Evil lives at mom’s house!

[@Vanessaeek]

Wow this is craaaazy !!!!! I dont know the family but everyone knows shes been at her dads for past year and when mom got custody last week , she cries says no and then runs away . They said anyone with information to call . I know who has information . The daughter seems to have alot to say . Her information , is the most important information .

[@bullgamer7343]

System is a joke kid has no say.

[@petervilladsen3063]

Hmm seems like you need to investergate the police departement, the judge and the Mother and Her side of the family

[@thegodhoward8037]

The mother needs to be locked up not the father!

[@cousinfook]

I had to deal with this....Mom is WRONG

[@BrzBoyz831]

Alison was there willingly, her father didn’t force her to be there. She old enough to know what is right or what is wrong. Something is off here.🤦‍♂️

[@JayPrettyMuch]

I know dad had her. But I feel bad that he has been arrested. The daughter says the mom is abusive.

[@leofajardo713]

That’s the problem the court does not listen to the kid

[@323mell]

So they arrest the dad who was protecting her but left mom to be free for abusing the girl? I am guessing the mother is a monster Praying for the young girl

[@user-wh6yx4kr7z]

Ridiculous. It is not kidnapping if it is your own child. But falsifying a police report is a crime.

[@ibuyufo]

The justice system is so disgraceful. It's failing the individual who needs protection.

[@jessicacruz2974]

This poor girl is traumatized, having the police come to take her to her abusive mom and not listening to her, the system is absolutely corrupt and is failing this poor child just as the Aunt said

[@nikkiej.5875]

I’m surprised the police didn’t look into the matter further. If a teenage girl is saying she doesn’t want to go with her mother and doesn’t feel safe with her and she’d rather stay with her father, there’s a reason for it. They should’ve looked into it first to make sure if what she was saying was true.

[@mr.pangetako]

If the child wants to be with her Dad, then you know there’s something wrong with the Mom. You don’t have to be really smart to know this, you just need a heart.

[@AnyM4jorDude]

This is so messed up.
