Breaking: Kim Davis Taken Into Federal Custody After Being Found In Contempt Of Court
It doesn’t always pay to go rogue, as Kim Davis has just learned. The bitter, embattled Rowan County clerk, who has become possibly the most despised woman in the United States due to her illegal refusal to issue marriage licenses to same-sex couples, has just been found in contempt of court and taken into federal custody.
A federal judge has ordered a defiant Kentucky clerk to jail after she refused to issue marriage licenses to gay couples.
U.S. District Judge David Bunning told Rowan County Clerk Kim Davis she would be jailed until she complied with his order to issue the licenses. Davis said “thank you” before she was led out of the courtroom by a U.S. marshal. She was not in handcuffs.
Davis has refused to issue marriages licenses for two months since the Supreme Court legalized gay marriage. She argues that her Christian faith should exempt her from signing the licenses.
