I don't know about you, but I judge people's moral codes by results
First, there is no "result" here of the girl out the door in this article/link, only the something told second hand from an emotional teen age girl. Second, you judge them by your moral code and who is to say you are right except you, so one should keep one's moral code to yourself and not impose it on others. Now, if the parents had said to my daughter, you are wrong to not believe in our God, then I have an issue with them since they impose their moral code, as you do, on others.
I do not judge other's moral code unless they force it on me and then the issue is not their code but their action on me.

You have just advanced an eloquent defence of so-called 'honour' killings, female genitial mutilation, stoning women to death for adultery - in fact, all and any of a whole host of culturally approved acts of barbarism that are held to defend a 'moral' code/dogma against 'transgressors, or, as in this case, non-subscribers to the code or dogma'
Congratulations! I wouldn't have thought it possible. At least not possible by a rational sensitive and intelligent human being.
However hiding the sheer evil of your argument behind nice sounding but vacuous platitudes doesn't prevent me from thinking that the 'morality' employed to rationalise and absolve such barbarisms is every bit as depraved and repulsive as the barbarisms it attempts to absolve and excuse
