9th US missionary freed in Haiti, returns home
A US missionary held for more than a month in Haiti on kidnapping charges flew back to the United States after being released from prison, while the leader of her Baptist group remained in custody.
Charisa Coulter and Laura Silsby were the last two missionaries still in custody of 10 that were arrested for trying to take 33 children out of Haiti after the earthquake. The other eight were released February 17. Coulter, 24, was freed Monday and whisked from her jail cell to the airport by US Embassy staff. (AP)
