Federal Judge Margo Brodie did not comment on the merits of Goodman's vile claim that Orthodox Jews can marry at age 13 with the consent of only one partner and need not have consent from the child's parents. The judge merely pointed out that Goodman is charged with taking a minor across state lines — from Brooklyn to New Jersey — on Valentine's Day 2010 with the intent to have illicit sex. She noted that the transportation took place before the so-called marriage.
