Abduction and Kidnapping

Appropriately enough, kidnapper seems to have originated among those who perpetrate this crime. We know this because kid and napper, the two parts of the compound, were slang of the sort that criminals used. Kid, which still has an informal air, was considered low slang when kidnapper was formed, and napper is obsolete slang for a thief, coming from the verb nap, ?to steal.? Nap is possibly a variant of nab, which also still has a slangy ring. In 1678, the year in which the word is first recorded, kidnappers plied their trade to secure laborers for plantations in colonies such as the ones in North America. The term later took on the broader sense that it has today. The verb kidnap is recorded later (1682) than the noun and so is possibly a back-formation, that is, people may have assumed that a kidnapper kidnaps.

You may be able to get charges pressed against them as you normally would. A warrant can then be issued and the person either extradited or charged and tried in absentia.

In California offenses that are punishable by death or life in prison, have no statute of limitations. If the felony can result in over 8 year in prison it is set at 6 years. Less that that they are set at 3 years. And it will be from the time the individual is found, so it could be years later.

Florida's statute of limitations for child abuse is going to be based on the seriousness of the crime charged. Felonies that result in death or is a Capitol or life felony has no limit. The other felonies could be 2, 3 or 5 years depending on the specific charge. And because the victim is a minor the statute starts to run when they turn 16. Absence from the state can toll the statute for up to three years.

As a married mother, no. As a single mother, though he has no legal right to retain the children, the police and the courts are beginning to view this as a civil rights issue that your rights are no greater than his to the children. I know as we we have been bring civil rights actions against them.

2 - 25 years for each child not including early release or any person over the age of 16.

It depends on several other factors such as who has legal custody, do both parents have parental rights, are the parties married, divorced, never married, is there any visitation order, etc. You need to visit the family court and ask to speak with an advocate. If that's not possible you need to speak with a private attorney and explain all the details of your situation so your legal options can be explained to you.

Information on adoption criteria varies by state. You should consult your local adoption agency for more info.

Generally-speaking, adopting a US orphan child (i.e. one who legally has no parents) will be difficult (if not impossible) unless at least one of the adoptive parents is either a US Citizen or a US Permanent Resident.

It depends on legal conventions. In some countries in Europe, various forms of corporal punishment are legal in schools. I believe this is true in Germany and parts of Britain. Talk of Might Makes Right. There are collateral lines such as child labor where abuse can readily take place unwitnesses- as on farms, in sheds and so on. In a very real sense it is impossible to adequately document the crime, as what constitutes ABUSE varies a great deal.l

Kidnapping is always wrong for any reason, but Islam allows non muslims and apostates to be taken and kept in slavery;Muhammad had many female slaves all taken as "booty",and even married one whose husband had just been slaughtered . Muslims engaged in Jihad can take hostages to be held for ransom for the benefit of the umma. Non Muslims are not protected under Islamic sharia unless given special dispensation or are "dhimmi" living under Islamic rule .In these cases the dhimmi are protected from death at the hands of the Islamic state if they pay the Jizya and obey the rules of dhimmitude. According to the Quran all Muslims face the consequences of their actions on the Day of Judgement,the infidel are condemned to hell.

too many to be counted, this is the top of the iceberg, because we only know about the ones you hear about through the news.

No. Abduction is a crime against state law, and generally prosecutired as a felony offense. The victim has no choice in the matter of prosecution and is only a witness to the fact that they were, in fact, abducted.

You could be sentenced up to life in prison for this offense.

Depends widely on circumstances. Are the parents married and is there any court orders?

If it is Kidnapping in the first degree in violation of P.L. 135.25, the sentencing possibilities are an indeterminite sentence with the minimum time in jail being a sentence of between 15 and 25 years, and the maximum expiration being life in prison. Meaning you can get somewhere between "15-life" and "25-life." If it is Kidnapping in the second degree in violation of P.L. 135.20, and you have no prior felony convictions, it will be a determinite sentence of between 5 and 25 years.

There is none. Kidnapping is a Class A felony in the state of New York, and like every offense in that category, does not have a statute of limitations attached to it.

The term for it is "impressment".
