Report: Teen Convert May Have Been Lured

A 17-year-old girl said she ran for her life from her own family after she converted from Islam to Christianity, but a new report released from the Florida Department of Law Enforcement (read report) suggests, Rifqa Bary may have been lured to Florida.

A judge had sealed the FDLE report on Rifqa Bary's case for 10 days.

Initially, Bary said she hitch-hiked to a Greyhound station from her home in Ohio and just "ended up" at an Orlando pastor's house.

Bary's parents have maintained all along their daughter was brainwashed and manipulated. But the new FDLE report shows someone in Orlando bought her the bus ticket.

A report released by FDLE says the Ohio teenager, who ran away to Florida, may have not been forthcoming with investigators. The report was unable to find any evidence to back up many of Rifqa Bary's claims, including allegations of abuse.

Bary told agents that a former teacher knew her life was in danger because she converted to Christianity so she offered her a place to stay.

But according to the FDLE report, the teacher had no idea about the threats. The teacher said she offered Bary a place to stay because Bary's brother was having parties with alcohol at the house while the parents were out of town.

FDLE also revealed someone with a fake name in Orlando purchased a bus ticket for Bary to get to Florida. Bary initially said she hitch-hiked and then got on the Greyhound bus. But investigators say a young pastor drove her to the bus station and then Orlando Pastor Blake Lorenz picked her up from the bus stop.

The report does not say Lorenz or the church the ministers were instrumental in getting the teen to Orlando.

One of the parents' attorney commented about the report during a September 3 hearing.

"We have a favorable report. There are indications there is no evidence of these allegations," an attorney stated.

The parents' attorneys have filed a motion to dismiss the case and hope to schedule the hearing next week.

Transcripts of Rifqa Bary's interview are sealed until next Tuesday.
