Costa Rican Judge
Accepts Ozarks Man's Trial
It could be a matter of weeks before an
Ozarks father can finally bring his daughter
back to the United States. Last week, Roy
Koyama traveled to Costa Rica to get his
daughter Emily back.
In February 2009, Emily's mother Trina was
charged with parental kidnapping and she
traveled overseas.
On Tuesday, Roy says a judge in Costa Rica
has accepted his trial and is now working on
translating and doing the paperwork. Roy
says he'll most likely be going back in
about three weeks, once the trial wraps up.
The U.S. State Department and the National
Center for Missing and Exploited Children
have helped Roy in this legal battle.
He says his ex-finance may be extradited to
face her charges. She says she is just
trying to protect her child. |
