Runaway, mother defy judge, appear on "Dr. Phil"

[rsmith6621]

The mother of the nine-year-old Pierce County boy who managed to hitchhike on planes from Seattle all the way to Dallas had to answer some questions of her own in court on Wednesday.

The prosecutor accused Sakina Booker, the mother of Sumaj Booker, of violating the terms of her son's probation.

Following his famous escapade in January, a judge placed Sumaj Booker under house arrest, 24 hours a day. He's only allowed to leave to go to school.

But prosecutor Fred Wist says Sumaj's mother intentionally broke that rule when she took him out of state to appear on the "Dr. Phil Show."
