Kidnapping is the act of physically and involuntarily removing someone from a location such as their work or home. Kidnapping can involve people other than children. Practically, anyone can be kidnapped regardless of age.
Many kidnapping cases are acts of ransom or the result of difficult child custody battles. Whatever the circumstances are surrounding an alleged kidnapping, it is crucial that you utilize the legal expertise of a Duluth kidnapping and stalking lawyer.
And while it is easy to accuse someone of kidnapping, the same can go for stalking. Stalking is following someone around in an effort to keep an eye on them and sometimes stems from an obsession with that person. If you are charged with a stalking, contact a Duluth criminal lawyer now to ensure your best defense.
