Parents Kidnapped Daughter To Force Abortion

[lily]

Unless this 19 year old girl is mentally retarded, then I think the parents should be charged with kidnapping........although, I don't see this girl going into a clinic, behind closed doors and telling the doctor that her parents kidnapped her and are forcing her to have an abortion and then the doctor actually doing the abortion either.

Cops: Parents Kidnapped Daughter To Force Abortion
19-Year-Old Recently Told Parents She Was Pregnant
(CBS) After disclosing to her parents that she was pregnant, a 19-year-old
Maine girl was allegedly bound with rope and duct tape by her parents, who
then allegedly attempted to drive the girl to an abortion clinic in New York
on Friday for an emergency abortion, police said.

Katelyn Kampf, 19, was able to escape from her parents' custody when they
stopped to use a restroom in Salem, New Hampshire. Police said the girl fled
to a local department store where she was able to call police. Police found
her behind a shopping mall and, shortly after, found the parents, Nicholas
Kampf, 54, and Lola Kampf, 53, driving around a parking lot looking for the
girl.

The parents were taken into custody by Salem Police and brought to police
headquarters. A search of the vehicle revealed rope, duct tape, scissors,
and a .22 caliber rifle. The father was found in possession of a loaded .22
caliber clip in his pants pocket.

During an interview with the girl, police found that her parents were upset
after she recently told them she was pregnant. The girl told police that a
physical altercation ensued and the girl was forced to the floor. The girl
was then allegedly bound with rope around her legs and hands. She told
police that she was carried to a vehicle and driven away by her parents.

According to the girl, her parents were driving her to a location in New
York State to have an emergency abortion performed. The girl was allegedly
taken from the family's home on Country Lane in North Yarmouth during the
morning hours on Friday, police said.

The Kampf's were arrested following their interview by New Hampshire and
Maine investigators. They have been charged by the Salem, New Hampshire
Police with kidnapping. They were transported to the Rockingham County Jail
in Manchester, New Hampshire where they were each being held on $100,000
cash bail. The case will also be reviewed by Cumberland County prosecutor's
for potential Maine charges, police said.

I saw that yesterday. The eerie thing about this was when I realized I had been at that shopping mall on the day this occured. Why the hell did they need a gun anyway? They seem like they may have a history of abuse.

Ok......that is just weird!

Why the hell did they need a gun anyway?

I think there is more to this story than is being reported.

Favor? I doubt the media will keep up on this story for much longer. If you see anything in your local paper, could you post it? My husband and I have a bet going........cruel I know, but what can I say?

SALEM, N.H. - A Maine couple accused of tying up their 19-year-old daughter, throwing her in their car and driving her out of state to get an abortion were upset because the baby's father is black, a Maine sheriff said Tuesday.

Katelyn Kampf, who is white, told Cumberland County Sheriff Mark Dion that her mother "was pretty irate at the fact that the child's father was black, and she had made a number of disparaging remarks about that," he said.

Well, Maine's been making a strong showing in the redneck department lately. I've never been into central or northern Maine. The only place I've really spent any time in is Portland, and that's a pretty liberal city and its diverse, at least for what you can expect in northern new england.

I figured there was more to the story than what the original article stated.....but never in my wildest dreams would I expect that to be the reason!

Thanks for the update.

Has anyone ever seen the movie Palindromes? These people obviously did.

What's wrong with wanting to protect one's own bloodline?

.........that's an odd thing to say, especially with some one using the moniker Anti-Rascism.

You're sounding more and more like a white nationalist.

After a while you realize how meaningless such names are.
