Salt Lake police arrest woman in attempted kidnapping

How interesting. A female kidnapper. It needs to be understood that women, as well as men, commit kidnappings, molests and other sex crimes. What a sick society we had become.

I hope that she get's the maximum sentance out there.

It's possible that she was kidnapping them to take to her boyfriend or husband, because he coerced her into it. I'm not saying I know this to be the case, just that I've seen things like it before, so it could be a possibility. I am very curious to know her motivation.

I thought earlier reports indicated it was a man DRESSED like a woman. Must've been one ugly chic.

I'm grateful that the woman failed in her attempt. However, the girls being 8 and 5, where was their guardian? This just goes to show us, it only takes a split second to abduct a child. Let's be on our toes mom and dad!

Is it possible that she was kidnapping them to give to space aliens? Or maybe she was taking them to give to Atlanteans that live on Antelope island? Could it be that Concerned Dad has watched to many episodes of Law and Order: SVU? It does not matter what her motivation was, throw her in prison, after a fair and impartial trial, of course.

What if this woman IS innocent? I have no idea whether she is or isn't, I just get sick of people making the leap from innocent to guilty without a trial!

To Saucer from Dad | 12:22 p.m. June 23, 2008

No Saucer, I don't even watch Law and Order. The fact of the matter is, I work in Law Enforcement, and have seen things like this before. You have a lot of nerve attacking me and mocking me without facts. I suspect you are nothing but a troll, but no matter. You are so very clever, with your jokes. Now, go get some facts, and then spout off!
