Country singer Mindy McCready is pushing her luck with the legal system by not following a judge’s order to return her 5-year-old son to the care of her mother in Florida, her ex-boyfriend and father of the boy said yesterday. McCready said Thursday she would not bring her son back from Tennessee, despite violating a custody arrangement. McCready took the boy during a recent visit at her father’s Florida home, and a judge signed an order ordering authorities to take the boy into custody and return him. “I’m doing all this to protect Zander, not stay out of trouble,’’ McCready wrote in an e-mail to the Associated Press. McCready says her son has suffered abuse at her mother’s house; her mother, Gayle Inge, denies the allegations. (AP)
