That's wild. You >> them with a hammer? >> No. >> On October the 12th, 2025, officers were alerted to a vehicle traveling westbound with a Georgia license plate linked to an ongoing missing person investigation. One of the officers intercepted the car and pulled it over for a traffic stop. [music] As the officers approached the suspect, they began asking for some crucial vehicle particulars. He seemed to have the smarts to pull off both a kidnapping and a robbery. >> Hello. >> I'm Officer Blair with Lachland. Uh, the reason I'm stopping the car is this car hit on one of our cameras. Uh, and said that there's a missing person attached to this license plate. >> Do you have your driver's license on you by chance? >> Yeah. >> Okay.

Female black 40s are orange shirt and gray tights left by unknown. >> I got go and take a seat there. >> All right, you can log it out then. While in the vehicle with an officer, Randall suddenly spoke up, throwing out words the cop did not expect. It wasn't what the cop planned for, but it definitely made the case a lot simpler. >> Hey, sir. >> Yeah. >> That young girl making home safe. I kidnapped her, man. How force her to come. >> You kidnapped her. Yep. She ain't a part of Georgia. >> What's your name? [music] >> Fire department. certified. >> What is it? >> Randall >> in Georgia. >> That's why I kidnapped. >> What's your date of birth, partner? >> What's the girl's name? >> I said I give just a second. So this girl was kidnapped from Georgia or >> she was kidnapped from Georgia. >> What he's saying? Said he was kidnapped from she kid he kidnapped her from Georgia. They put the one a person on the the license plate. I guess they don't know who it is. So I'm getting contact with Georgia. See what's going on with it. He's got nothing going right now. >> Okay. >> But his name is Randall. >> He was the suspect in the kidnapping. >> I don't know all that. He was he just stated I kidnapped her. So, >> I've got her in my car. >> You do? >> Yeah. >> Good job. >> Appreciate it. >> Good job. >> Thank you. >> After Randall's revelation, the officer quickly checked on the victim. She was unharmed, thankfully, but she also confirmed key details that helped move the investigation forward. >> How are you? You okay? >> What's been going on? What is it? I was like 11. >> 11. Go ahead. >> Georgia got the flock kid called in looking for Jeffrey. >> May have been a firearm that was taken when he left out. >> As of right now, who we have in custody is a Randall. He doesn't have an ID on it, so I'm still confirming his ID. Do >> you have any ID on you at all? >> Or is everything in the car? >> I don't know. >> Frank. >> Okay. Who was that? Who was driving? >> Do you know him? >> Who was driving the vehicle? >> What's his name? >> Huh? >> Randall. >> Randall? Are you sure? Do you know his last name? >> Give me a second. >> The officer pushed Randall for more and the suspect's response only deepened the case against him with revelations that would make his guilt even harder to deny. >> Where are you from, Mr. >> I'm from? >> I'm from here. I've been living in my life. I was born here. I left a couple years about 25 years ago. >> Mr. What up? >> I'm going to read your Miranda warnings. Okay. >> You have the right to remain silent. Anything you say can and will be used against you in a court of law. You have the right to talk to a lawyer and have him or her present with you while you're being questioned. [music] If you cannot afford to hire a lawyer, want to be appointed to represent you before any question if you wish. You can decide at any time to exercise these rights and not answer any questions or make any statements. Do you understand what I just read you? >> So, if I ask any questions, you going to talk? >> Some of them. >> Okay. So, you stated you you kidnapped this individual, correct? >> Yes, sir. >> Is this all from Georgia? What is your relation to this young lady? >> Uh, no. No relation. She was just uh cool and uh she seen something that I ain't want her to tell. So, I told her to come with me. >> When you say she seen something like she seen a crime or something? >> Yes, sir. That why I say Georgia going to want me. >> Okay. The officer called the police department in Georgia for clarity on the case. It seemed that they had been waiting for the call because on the other end, a flood of information was ready to be relayed. >> Hello, this is Officer Waters from Hawkland. >> Hey, Waters. How you doing? This is Officer Fountain. >> Hey, how are you, sir? >> I'm doing all right. >> Um, got a situation. We're first time with this. I'm just trying to call and get some information on it. Give me just a second. Hold on. I'm on the phone with Georgia real quick. I'll let you scanner. Sorry about that, buddy. >> So, we had a flock hit on this car for a missing person. Um, >> that's right. >> My partner tried to stop the vehicle. The vehicle ended up fleeing on him. Uh, we went on a chase with him. We finally, his cars, >> it ended up going to He ended up have two flat tires. The car ended up catching on fire. We finally got him into custody. Um, his name is a Mr. Randall. >> How many people's in the vehicle? We had a driver, Randall. Then we had a female passenger who >> The missing person is the Jeffrey white male that's registered that vehicle. And we're we're it's a possibility that they may have done something with him. >> Okay. So, >> soon as I gotten him in the car, he made statements of saying he kidnapped this girl. He kidnapped this girl because she's seen a crime happen and he didn't want her to tell. >> Oh. And then I meandized him right after that. After I meandized him, he answered a few more questions and I haven't gone any further on him. I wanted to get in contact with you guys. >> Yeah. Or or maybe whenever if y'all end up talking to both of them and just ask him where he's at because that's >> Charles. >> This is what we were kind of thinking that may have happened. >> I just talked to our detective that took the case over after I sent the report in. Um he's he's got a heads up and then I'm fixing to give him a call back in a minute. >> Are you wanting the vehicle in any way? >> No, we just really want to count for him. That's that's where this whole thing is. >> An agency that's close to us, they have a more secured lot. So, they're going to tow it over to their lot and then we're going to try to figure out what's going on with all this. I mean, he told when I meandized him and asked him if he was going to answer any questions, he said he'll answer some and that was it. >> So, he he goes by milk. [music] that's his nickname. And he's he's in a he's actually suspected in a in a uh theft that just occurred a few days ago um prior to this. The the story was that him and that girl left with the Jeffrey from Jeffrey's apartment and then that's when the last and anything has been of any of them except on FL. >> Okay. from here all the way up through Knoxville up through that way and I we were all refreshing our pop and I said, "Let me call you guys." And at the exact same time, y'all were in pursuit of it. >> Are you guys looking for a gun or anything like that in specific? >> The Jeffrey guy had a report of a firearm that had been taken out of his apartment >> also a few days prior to this. Okay. >> Y'all can't find one. >> Not yet. I mean, I'm about to tow it. I'm about to inventory the car if it's in there. I'm going to go deal with all this stuff and I will give you a call back. >> Appreciate it. >> All right. Thanks, sir. >> Unlike most criminals, Randall didn't see the point of stalling the inevitable. He kept laying every piece of information bare without a second thought. >> You don't need to look for no gun cuz it ain't no gun. If you find his body, you going to find the hammer like with a hammer. >> But you got to find the body. I'm just being >> I mean I appreciate it. >> But like I said, she's seen it. That's why >> him with a hammer. >> Yeah. >> Where's he at? >> I mean, you're already aditting. You're already admitting to >> in Statesboro. That's all. He in Statesboro. >> He's in Statesboro from where you're from in Georgia. >> Oh, hey. Hey. He just admitted to him with a hammer. >> Oh, >> really? >> Yeah. He said he's in Statesboro, Georgia. >> Statesboro, Georgia. >> Yeah. >> Call Georgia back. >> Yeah. >> We're going to go check this truck and make sure he ain't in there. >> On the way to the station, Randall tried to extract a bit of information from the officer despite the circumstances. [music] >> Hey, >> what's up, man? >> Somebody must told y'all I was coming. Nobody told us anything about you, my guy. >> Just a coincidence. >> One hell of a coincidence, I guess. >> I was like 117. >> Um, I'm going to take him in first real quick. >> Yeah. All right, go a step out here for 12. >> No, it's just I got a bullet in my left leg. That's why I'm moving slow. >> Got shot or something. >> Yeah, long time ago. >> I'm logging off to switch cars. When I log back on, can you put me back? >> Go down where this other officer's at. I'm going to go in that door. Okay. Come on in. Step down there. Like a big step. You're going to go to your right. Let's chase that roll real quick and pat you down one more time. I'm done on you. Correct. All right. Go take a seat. Randall was ultimately charged with felony homicide, severe assault, failure to comply, and putting a child in harm's way. If you thought you've seen the most heinous of evil kidnappers, then you should meet Robbie, a self-aclaimed mentally deranged kidnapper who grabbed a minor off of the sidewalk and then desperately sought to dodge punishment using any method he could think of. >> He said he was going to show you a puppy. >> Yeah, he's my mom's friend. I think he said he knows my mom. >> Hey, I don't [snorts] I'm just alone. I'm just alone. Please, I didn't hurt anybody. I'm just alone. >> On a sunny afternoon, a bystander saw a man parking in the middle of the road. The man then forcefully snatched a little girl riding her bike along the sidewalk and placed her in the passenger seat before zooming off. The witness followed in his own car until he spotted a police vehicle and provided the officers with the details of the case. His watchful eyes made it possible for the cops to catch Robbie in 10 minutes. As they approached him, the seriousness in their actions made it clear that they weren't here for games. >> See your hands? >> What's your location? >> Hands. Put [music] your hands in the air. Stay right there. Stay right there. >> Hall. Keep your hands in the air. Turn around. >> Turn around and back towards me. >> Keep walking back. Keep walking back. >> Keep walking back. Keep walking back. Keep walking back. Get on your knees. Get on your knees. Stay right there. >> Stay right there. >> Stay on the ground. >> Keep your mouth shut. ready for it. Hold up. One more in the car. >> Haven't cleared it yet. >> Let's move up on it. >> OPEN THE PASSENGER DOOR. >> IT'S JUST her >> on the ground. ON THE GROUND. >> OPEN THE PASSENGER DOOR. >> That might be our victim. >> You got a little girl in the front seat. Little girl. >> Hello. >> It's okay. Come here. >> It's okay. >> [screaming] >> over here. Pull up in the >> Make sure she's okay. >> I think this is >> Does he live here? >> Does he live here? >> All right. Just wait right there then. If you don't know him, just wait right there. >> Thank you. No, he doesn't. >> Are you okay? >> Huh? >> Do you have any injuries? >> No. >> Okay. >> Pick me up. >> Picked you up. >> You don't know him? >> They were going to do anything. radio. >> Listen to me. >> Silent. Anything you say can will be used against you in the court of law. You have the right to an attorney and to have an attorney present during questioning. If you cannot appoint an attorney, one may be appointed to you before any question. >> They're coming. We know they are. >> Your daddy's coming. Okay. >> Okay. He's coming. >> Daddy. He's coming. Okay. >> Is dad coming? >> Dad's off. I have supervisor. Who else you got? >> You don't have any injuries or anything or not hurt? >> Okay. All right. >> Okay. Sit on your rear end. >> Want to sit up? >> The cops spoke to the victim and she explained how Robbie managed to grab her. His actions were completely evil, no doubt. But he was smart enough to know the quickest way to lure someone her age. >> Is your mom and dad at the house? >> No, my grandpa. >> Oh, your grandpa was watching you? >> Yeah, but my dad's coming home. >> Okay. >> Oh, your mama where she work? >> He didn't take me. He just said he's going to give me >> Okay. Can anybody does she need him? >> Are you hurt? He didn't do anything wrong. >> He said he was going to show you a puppy. >> Yeah, he's my mom's friend. I think >> he said he knows my mom. >> You say he knows your mom. >> He's always trying to hit you on the back of this car. >> Probably. >> How old are you? >> Six. >> You're big. >> I don't know if he killed me or not. >> I don't know. I hope not. I think my dad's Well, my dad lives there. He's going to jail. But >> wait, he could go work. >> We got you. >> I don't think she wants to. >> She said that he wanted to show her a puppy and he was a friend of her mom's. >> I don't know if I Wait, I don't know who he is. >> Yeah, it's okay. We got your back. Is this okay? >> If there's one thing common among kidnappers or criminals in general, it's that the moment they are caught, they always have excuses or what they believe to be justifiable reasons for their atrocities. Robbie, of course, wasn't going to be an exception. Can we just go? I always want to kill myself. I need help. Please, can we just go? Oh, right now we're staying right here. Okay. So, we can figure out what's going on. >> You guys don't want to live nowhere. I just want to leave. Just give me your help. I don't know what to do, man. Been alone too long with co and everything depression. Just give me some help, please. God. No. I have mental problems. I've had them for a long time. Just go get me some help. Need some treatment, something. I can't afford psychiatrist and medication. You know what I'm saying? I got I got live alone. All I have is a dog. My little puppy go alone. God, you get their daughter back. I didn't do anything. Bringing her back is still so bad. Stupid. It was a spur of the moment. Stupid thing. Can't believe did anything like that. >> The girl's grandfather finally arrived and took her away from the nightmare that she had just endured. Meanwhile, Robbie believed that showing even a hint of weakness might earn him some sympathy. But what the cops saw when they caught him erased any chance of that. I need some help. Can we just go, please? I need some help. I just want to I don't I don't I don't want to live anymore. This is my life is over. There's no help. I've had mental problems for years. I've never been able to get any help. Please, just help me. Please, I need some help. >> Give us a little bit. Okay. >> Been too [ __ ] alone for too long. Please, I got nothing. Please step me out here and give me some help. Please. Didn't hurt anybody. I felt so bad I brought her back. I'm sorry. Sorry. Sorry. I know it's serious. I know it's serious. I'm sorry. >> Oh god. Please get some help. Oh, please. I'm so sorry. >> I don't know. The dirty look he gave us when he walked past to get sat in the car. Speaks a different story. >> 1757. No, he he gave us all a dirty look with Veron and has walked into the car. >> Yeah, >> Robbie had been putting up a good show of remorse so far, but the cops weren't buying any of it. For a man desperate for a chance to mitigate the consequences of his actions, there was almost a certain chance he had some backup plans. Even if it meant telling a ridiculous story or excuses Friday, it's going to be hard to get some money in. >> Do what? >> It's going to be hard to get some money in here, I guess. Huh? >> Well, they stay pretty busy, you know. Lots of crazy people out here not getting any help. Guess after co a lot of this stuff's going on. How many times you say I don't want to live on people just ignore you. You know you ignore you. Go right up. >> Fine. Just mind if it's on sometimes. Everybody does. I guess I'm bald. If you can see, it's embarrassing, man. It was a pathetic embarrassing night. Just just had too much. I'm 40 years old, man. I'm alone. You know, can you understand what that is? I mean, I don't You don't have to answer, but you understand. My mom supposed to see her every week. She's in her 60s. She prays for me all the time. She got me a little puppy. I feel like I have somebody. He's been working, but I don't get help. I don't get psychiatrists. We We're not rich. I can barely afford my house. I'm taped to death as a single person would understand. Does anybody have any compassion for any people at all? I understand what I did was really dangerous. scared a lot of people. >> I'm not I've never hurt anybody. I've never had I never hurt anybody. >> I don't know, man. I'm not I'm not the detective. >> Does it help that even that I was praying I was coming back. I mean, I feel bad that didn't hurt anybody. Does that help at all in your opinion? >> That's probably something you have to talk to someone else. You know what I mean? I'm probably not the right person to talk to about that. >> You have a dog. I guess I see dog hair. >> Hm. >> You have a dog? >> Yeah, I got a big old Belgian Malawa. I got a little mini schnowzer. My mom had litter had puppies. She gave me one. >> He's like 8 months old now. Mini for a very long time. But don't forget to see him again. Just been me and him and me and my puppy really close when he calls me. So, it's going to be heartbreaking for my little dog. I just see him small out. bring that up compared to, you know, the situation. He's small. That's the kind of person I am. It breaks my heart. A little puppy is going to miss me. You know what I mean? I wouldn't hurt a single. >> At the station, Robbiey's drama only worsened, and his reaction made it obvious that he hadn't bothered to think things through before making such a vile decision. Just give me down. for coming in here. >> I didn't hurt anybody. I just need some help. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I didn't hurt nobody. >> Quit. >> I never hurt anybody. >> I hate my life. I hate living. I'm just [snorts] suicide so many times. Nobody cares. You can't be alone. I hate my life. I don't I'm just I'm just alone. Please. I didn't hurt anybody. I'm just alone. [snorts] Just alone too much. Please help get hurt. I'm sorry. So ashamed. I'm so ashamed. Sorry. Just want to shut. Please stop my heart. Just go. I don't want to be here. Oh god. My mother's coming so bad. Break her heart. He's breaking mine already. [snorts] I wouldn't hurt nobody. I would never hurt anybody. [snorts] I would never hurt anybody. I just never hurt anybody. Please help me. I just need help. Oh, wrong man. [snorts] There's nobody there to help me ever. It's just me. [snorts] >> The officers eventually questioned Robbie and his response revealed nothing of a man suffering from mental illness. Instead, it pointed to something far more deep and unsettling. Life had to be over. But it didn't hurt nobody. Nobody. But I mean, I know it's serious. I know how stupid a mistake it is. >> What do you think she thought was going on? >> I don't know. It spooked. She scared me because she was crying and I felt bad. And then immediately, it wasn't a second, you know, a minute or two before I got back and pranking her. So, >> you know, it wasn't it didn't take long and have compassion. I've never hurt anybody. Don't know why I do stuff like that. >> It's like a dog chasing a car. You just you don't know what he's going to do with it. I mean, I use that example, but it's pretty well known one, but something like that, I guess. >> Chasing the car, you don't know what he's doing. >> Let me ask you this way. >> I feel terrible. [snorts] >> If you were a 5-year-old girl, >> I'd be scary. Now, when I was 5 year olds, I I'd run around the block. I'd ride a big wheel around the block and nobody watching me. You know when I never had any issues with anyone, you know, messing with a kid ever. >> So when you were boy >> when you were that age and someone came up and might be different. >> You ended up in somebody's car. What would you think was happening? >> It'd be pretty weird. I I don't know. It' be scary. And I'm sure she was scared and I recognized that and I felt bad. felt bad she was scared or felt bad that >> felt bad that she was scared and that this is happening. I can't believe it's happening. This >> I mean, I don't want to say it first cuz I don't want to set you off. I want you to tell me what it is. >> You have to leave me there a little bit what you're what you want. >> Well, it's not the way I want. I mean, we're we've been talking about it. We've been talking about Let's be honest with you. Anything missing? Let me know. >> What is it when someone goes and snatches up a 5, sixy old kid and takes off with him? What do you think that that makes that little girl think? What does she think is happening? [clears throat] I can tell you I'm not a little girl. I mean, I I've been a little kid and I'm sure it's a scary thing. You got a family to go home to. I'm sure you burden me. You won't be here with some idiot like me. I wouldn't want to be in the same room with me. And most people don't because I have no friends. >> Believe me, one of the best things about this job is I get to talk to all kinds of different people. I love it. >> Definitely grow and learn. It make you more worldly and knowledgeable and even grateful and respect life more and want you to know the dark side and the ugly part of life cuz you can't really [music] have it without that. You can't really have a respect and the gratefulness without that darkness. This is what I do with my head all the time. I mean, just trying to figure things out. I write I keep a journal after I talk to my mom, but I feel like I get lot real negative around her a lot. So, I try to calm that down and I don't want to get too real and biblical and, you know, just depressed and hate and thoughts. I really try to calm down and just remember she's old now. It's this kind of therapy for both of [music] us. At least now I get a break from the smoking the cigarettes which I have no self-control over just like smoke half a cigarette put it out or I buy pack cigarettes. Lately I would buy pack cigarettes and I throw 10 15 of them away just so I can just where I need to go to work. >> You even kind of talked about it having girlfriends at 5 and 6 and >> yeah when I was young I did. I mean they were they call them girlfriends but I would kiss them. I mean the I mean the first thing you brought up when I was asking about some of the issues that you had was that you had five and sixyear-old girlfriends that you were separated from you know to a degree traumatically right >> trauma is different for everybody >> and lots of relationship breakups and so there's a void I don't know if it's like I was looking for a girlfriend or I'm looking for a family or you know I mean that's what you told me a >> little bit of both probably >> I'm not going to lie it's probably a little bit of But I mean, to do that to a little girl, you have to hurt her. And you don't find out what you're made of until you're in the situation and you're just like, there's no way. There's no way. >> Robbie was the type of abductor who believed that with the right twist of logic, he could make his behavior seem less like a crime. And he acted on that misguided belief at every opportunity. >> So, you drove by once today and saw her or just like yesterday? Yeah, I was once by my buddy's house and then I turned right and I turned left and I think I saw her and then when I went come back around the block then I seen her again and I think >> Do you know when you came around the second time what you were doing? >> Yes. I don't know. I just seen you in a days you know >> I I can >> probably probably So >> Robbie I mean we got neighbors saying that you took her. We got you in the car with her. I'm not asking you these questions for me. >> I know. I know. You just need to make a statement, I guess. Right. >> I just want to know what happened and I want you to be okay with it. Cuz until you're okay with what actually happened, you can't face it. You can't deal with it. And I I mean, I've seen your history. You don't have a whole lot of history. I saw your DUI. >> Go back and remember every little thought. I mean, I ride around a lot of places. Oklahoma. >> Well, neighborhood. You kind of talked about your having >> rough thoughts and bad thoughts, and some of them surely stand out to you. >> I'm sure. So you decided to turn around at the light >> within a moment after [music] being in the car. I mean I was like dead set on turning around. Felt bad just crying. This is bad. It's like I was in shock that this is even happening. >> Spur of the moment type thing. Not some I just go around looking for it, you know, just [snorts] >> But yeah, it scared the crap out of me and I go like now cuz this is ridiculous. I don't understand what's going why I'm doing this. It's just something that happens that I don't know like like the voids and things I'm missing in my life. I just I want to fill them any way I can. Sometimes you know you you look past what if it's legal, you know, big mistake. I don't have as much self-control as other people. >> Believe it or not, >> don't have that much self-control. >> Believe it or not, the fact that you did bring her back and you're I mean, you're sitting here telling me that you're you're concerned about your self-control and hurting people. You told me you were afraid that you were going to hurt your dog. >> Yeah. >> And that's hard to do. And then I mean, you're you're saying that >> you're afraid of who you are, >> trying to give him a way out. >> And then, you know, I can't imagine that she just got in the car and was sitting there quietly at all. [music] You know, >> no, it didn't happen that way. No. >> I mean, >> oh, she's crying talking to me. >> I'm trying to console her. What What's your name? How old are you? >> And I'm watching you. I'm a papa. That kind of thing gets frustrating is my point. You know, it it does make you angry, especially if you know you can't control it. You sat here and you told me about having some pretty bad thoughts [music] and then I mean you're telling me that the girl was sitting there, you know, screaming and yelling. I'm assuming she's kicking and all upset. >> Screaming or kicking. Just crying. No crying at all. Really? >> Just screaming. It wasn't screaming or kicking. No. >> Okay. >> Did she fight you when she was getting in the car? Not really. Exactly. I don't remember exactly, but no. I don't I don't think she did. No fighting cuz I remember. >> You remember when you started talking to her? >> Yeah. As soon as you got in, like started crying. So, it's like, it's okay. It's okay. I'm not going to hurt you. >> What did you tell her? >> I told her I had a little puppy. We go play with a puppy. If you want to go see my puppy. >> In a final desperate bid to escape consequences, Robbie turned to the emotional route, hoping that if nothing else had worked, this would finally do the trick. >> And she she's just crying. So I was driving, what's your name? Who's watching you? What are you doing out there in the road? By the road just little small talk. Anything else you want to know? I mean, what what said as far as I can remember? Like I said, I mean the the fact that you got such something something like that going on and you're deciding for yourself that you know you're not one to do it. You know house two three years in the house alone and before that I was in apartment for 4 years alone. So before that I was just living with friends back and forth. [clears throat] I was kind of homeless for a while in 2008 when I lost my job and I was on employment and I was losing my friends bouncing around a lot. >> Good one. I never heard that. >> Let me go see where they're at. Cool and talking to me, man. I really appreciate Absolutely. >> In the end, Robbie was charged with kidnapping a minor and his bond was set to $1 million. He was ultimately sentenced to 13 years in prison and was instructed to register as a lifetime offender. Robbie was undoubtedly a maniac, but he pales in comparison to William Mosingo, who kidnapped a girl and held her captive for four whole days. >> Why don't you just sit down here? There's some water. >> We'll get you some stuff here. >> On the 16th of October, 2023, a scared eyed witness narrated how William had held the girl in his attic under very terrible conditions. >> What's going on? How do we get in? Can we get in the door? >> You have to kick him inside my door. I don't We don't care. I don't care. My parents are here. I can't help. I just unlock this camera. He used to live here, so he can tap into anything. >> But we have cameras up for other reasons. >> I got you. >> You know he's in there for a fact. >> I know for a fact. >> You can kick your He swear to God. Go ahead. Please. This girl. I don't know what's wrong with this girl. >> Oh, there's a girl in there with him. >> Yes. I told them this only. Hold on guys. There's a girl in there. She's very small and slim. My husband said he didn't really get a good look at her, but he's yelling at her. >> So, I picked the living out of her faces. She can't see out of her eyes. >> Okay. >> After several attempts to warn Williams to give himself up, the cops decided to break in. But what they found inside will leave you shocked. >> Williams, the police department. This is your last chance. Come out now with your hands up [music] >> or we'll be sending the K9 in to apprehend you. You will get bit by the dog. >> William, last chance. >> Please better come up. Come on. Your hands up. coming. >> No, keep your hands up. [laughter] Put your hands up. >> Just keep coming. Watch your step right there. You get that? >> Come on out here. >> Come [music] out, please. I get shoes. >> Once William was secured, the next [music] thing was to find the kidnapped girl and bring her to safety. >> Okay. What do you need to get down? >> Let me get this ladder. Okay. >> No one else up there. >> Where do you live at, dear? >> Thompson. >> How far away is that? like probably like 30 minutes like closer to started. >> Why don't you have a sit right seat right there? Why don't you have a sit right seat right there on my sele? >> William was arrested [music] and charged with kidnapping. The case of William was definitely horrifying, but then you haven't met Andy Barala, a cold-hearted kidnapper who tried to hijack not one but [music] two innocent little individuals. >> And this chick I was ready to punch her because she grabbed my wheel. I stopped her. I'm through there. One wheel, one hand on the wheel trying to He has one hand on her and I'm just trying to shake him and grab him and anything I could. >> On August the 13th, 2024, officers were sent out to investigate two attempted abductions that were foiled by courageous witnesses, but traced back to the same suspect. When the cops arrived, they carefully surveyed the scene before speaking to a witness. Then, suddenly, Endy began to act offended, as if their presence was a personal insult. Okay. What? You see her leg there? >> She's not broken. That's good. Okay. Are you the mom? >> And she's not hurting. >> Okay. Hold on. >> What is he the driver? >> Ran over and I see her druging the car. >> Hold on here. You got anything on you? >> No. >> Can I pay you down real quick? Yes. >> All right. Hold on. I've got the kid here. Leg injury. Nothing too serious. Um, and then I got a driver. So, here's his key cuz I was going by when I saw her inside the car and then he pulled up. >> So, you witness the accident? >> Uh, yeah. Cuz he literally ran over that hill, backwards as the door was open. >> All right. What way was the white car coming? Was it coming out of the park? >> Coming out. >> Okay. >> The car. Yeah. >> Who's she? >> The lady. >> So the mom That's the mom of the kid and she was in the car. >> Yeah. >> Yes. Scene is secure. >> Okay. So you're the driver? >> Yes. >> Okay. What can I get your side of the story here? >> I don't want to talk, man. >> You don't want to talk? Wow. >> As of right now, I got nothing. Crap. >> That's why accusing me of all I didn't do, man. >> That's why I'm trying to figure this all out. >> Yes, man. >> Okay. So, >> do your job or ask me if you want or let me go. I don't know. I didn't want nobody over. >> You just provoking me. I I was I was keeping my lawyer. >> As the cops pressed him, he did what he could to shape the story [music] in his favor, but he clearly didn't realize that his efforts were doomed from the start. >> All right. Um, you have your ID on you. >> Yes, she's down there on my driver. My mal borrow pack. By Malboro pack >> in the glove compartment. >> No, by Malboro pack. You see the Malboro pack? >> No, I don't see Mar. >> Over there. Over there is a Malboro pack. >> All right. All right. >> Over there is my license. >> You have an argument with this the mom? >> No, she she trying to jump in my car and start pulling the this and I reverse. I don't know like after this guy came and stopped me and he say he's a reverse officer. >> All right. >> I be problems man. I saw problem. [music] >> Like what kind of stuff? Were you just in the park to hang out for the day or? >> Yeah, I just drove there and I was coming back here. >> All right. Did you not see the kid? >> No. >> All right. Understandable. [music] He's a small kid. Um, >> I I didn't do it, man. >> Well, like I said, >> mistakes happen. If you didn't see them, that's fine. >> All right. >> All right. What's your first name? >> That's amazing. Can I >> Yeah, go for it. >> You have nothing on me. >> It's pretty No, you're fine. You're good. You're pretty stressful time for everyone here. Okay. >> Everything's fine. This looks like a mistake. All right. >> You didn't purposely hit the kid, right? >> No. No. I swear to God. No, I didn't purposely hit the kid at all. >> You You weren't drinking enough like that? >> No. No. Nothing. I'm so >> Yeah. I don't smell any alcohol, so that's good. >> Like I said, these mistakes happen and and it's fine. Okay. >> I didn't eat him, bro. I didn't I didn't like how you said I didn't run him over and stuff, man. >> I was just backing up because I I tried to drive first. Another car was coming. I was backing up and after I saw a lady pulling up the same like I don't know what the meant. >> So So let me So you were pulling out and then there's a car coming. So you backed up and you and >> I didn't know I didn't know what happened. I just saw them driving and we were I was arguing with this lady down here. I was like get the out of my car. Was that like >> and after this guy came down here and he told me get the out of the car and after I was here he pushed me here and I'm just staying here. >> Well, let me ask you this. Was she arguing with you because she thought you hated her kid? Is that why she's upset? >> Yeah. >> Okay, that makes sense. >> His lies flowed effortlessly and if he could keep them consistent, then he might be among the rare few who managed to escape even after the truth had him in its grasp. >> Take the little girl. >> No. >> No. All right. But why does the mom think that? >> Oh, no. >> Right. >> Is that the little kid hurt? >> Well, the one kid is hurt. Yeah. >> So, just to reiterate, so you were trying to pull out. You saw traffic and then you backed up. >> Yeah. No, I backed up. >> And when you backed up is when you might >> I don't know. after I saw the kid over there. I didn't know how that happened. I swear to God, he just pulled up here and he told me like, "Get out of the car." So, I told him, "Don't beat me up. I'm getting out of the car." He pushed me here and that's how, man. >> So, you're not sure how that kid got hurt? You don't think? >> I swear to God, I don't know how he got hurt. >> I just know I was trying to reverse the car because of the traffic and the kid got hurt. Did you put your hands on the girl? The young girl? >> No. >> No. >> Only on this blonde girl. And this chick, I was ready to punch her because she grabbed my wheel like >> while you were in the car. >> She jumped in the car and like grabbed me in the wheel. >> All right. Okay. >> I'm still trying to make sense of all this, man. That's crazy. >> Did you get my license? >> Yeah. The other officer has right now. What was your phone number? >> I don't have a phone number. I don't have no phone at all. >> Where do you live at? >> 7,000. >> The cops weren't satisfied with just Andy's account. So, they turned to the victim's relative to provide the missing pieces. The details that would ensure that his freedom was no longer in his hands. >> I haven't talked to her yet. No, >> this is not an accident. >> It's not an accident. He tried to kidnap my niece and this is absolutely horrendous what he just did back and forth. He had went back and forth with me hanging out of the driver's side. I'm sorry if this was not kind of related to you through the mail that came through stops because there were cars watching driving back. >> Well, I'm going to talk to him. I can talk to her. Yeah. >> Still trying to figure this out. Okay. So, sorry. Tell me. >> I'm about to tell police. I'm right here at where are we? Glenn River Road. >> We're on Riverland. Right between Clint >> Riverland in between in halfway to speed >> in between Van Dyke and River >> in that park at the park where birthday is back. >> Okay. >> Be very detailed. What exactly happened? What way were you going? >> Was on that side of the street. My son is just learning how to ride two wheels. I was here. He was there. This car stopped. I'm telling the kids. Is he coming out of the park? >> Yes. He came up behind her, stopped, ripped her up and I ran and I'm not I I don't even know how I grace the God. I got on my blazer over there, hitting the car. He's going into the passenger side. I picked her up. So, he's out of his car. >> Outside of the car. He opened up his door and was outside on the passenger side trying to pick her up off her brought her into the passenger seat of the car. I'm through there. one wheel. one hand on the wheel trying to he has one hand on her and I'm just trying to shake him and grab him and anything I could find. I swear this is insanity that this is even life around here and he's even able to smoke a cigarette right now and that I had to try and literally go back and forth with him in the car >> and where she at opening the door closing the door opening the door closing the door and finally the car that short got in front my son was in front of the car trying to stop him from going back and forth and kidnapping And literally I don't even know if he hit me on the way out. He fell out and thankfully I saw the truck and it all. >> When did he get hit during this entire when he was like backing out of Okay. >> Yeah. There was five, six times back and forth. >> Okay. Can you talk to her? >> Absolutely. >> Even his car. This is not an accident. You just went to my niece. >> He needs to go to jail today. >> Yeah, he's going to. >> Thank you very much. Knowing the officers had now uncovered the truth, Andy hatched a new plan to try and throw them off his trail. But the officers were already way ahead of him. Their preparation making his plan useless before it even began. >> You want to speak for your rights? >> No, I like to speak for my >> Let me ask you this. Uh, >> so you don't want to talk or nothing like that? >> Yes. Yes. You don't want to answer any questions? >> All right. Uh at this time I am going to detain you. Okay. So I'm going to place any one more time please. >> Set my stone. Can you pick up my phone please? >> I'll put it in the car. Uh yeah, for the mom if I could. We're going to go this way. I'll put them back up here. Yeah. >> To confirm the victim's relatives account, the officers spoke to additional witnesses. Their testimonies didn't just back her up. They intensified the case, delivering evidence far stronger than anticipated. >> Was she ever inside the car >> the whole time? >> She had her. I was hanging out of the front trying to get her out. Screaming at her back and forth to open the door, open the door. She kept open door take off so it would slam shut >> in the front seat. >> In the front seat. He got in the passenger side and then tried to hop over into the front side. And as he over I was hitting him and trying to grab the wheel and stop everything. >> Are you on the side? >> I was on the driver. I don't know. So he got out of the driver's side and was on the passenger side. >> Yeah, we were over here. >> And then he grabbed >> he were cars driving back like a scream. We're all screaming. >> So what exactly did you witness? >> Okay. When I was coming through, you were coming uh eastbound. >> I was coming east on Riverland. Okay. She was hanging out the door. Okay. It was you the little girl the passenger seat. >> I didn't know where the little girl was. The little boy was out here in the road. >> Okay. >> As I'm turning around up there is when he backed up and took the little boy out. Took the little boy out of where the car or his door, whatever it was. >> Okay. >> And I seen him go to the ground right away. >> Okay. By the like mom took him to the ground. >> No. No. harder the car hanging out the door and they caractly >> and he likely believed that he had found the perfect stunt to throw the officers off his trail, but the officers were all too familiar with that move. >> Yeah. >> Medication for what? >> Anxiety starters. >> Anxiety is what you got going on right now? >> I don't know. So you prescribe something for something. >> When was this? >> Okay. Are you good right now? I'm going to talk to somebody. I'll be right back. Are you good? >> Okay. >> Okay. Another of the victim's relatives arrived at the scene absolutely enraged. She wasn't just upset. She was ready to lash out. If only she could lay her hands on Endy. >> Are you mom? >> Yeah. >> Okay. >> Dude, I want to see him. >> Not right now. >> Oh, yeah. I want to see him. >> You're going to see him eventually. >> Mhm. >> Hey, what's up, >> dude? Did they tell you everything? >> No. >> Take some deep breaths. He's not going anywhere. We've got him. >> The reality is, friends, they're not going to let you get anywhere near him. >> I just want to see the >> two little kids. >> No, I don't. I will scream all I want. That is my child. because this is him. >> Nasty piece of not what I would expect. >> Oh, I hope I see him on the street one day. >> Sorry. >> Okay, >> well, sounds like uh your daughter was on the bike right here. He was coming out of the park. He saw her by herself, got out of his car, tried to bring her into his car. She brought her into his car and then it was your sister here was able to fight him. Um to the point where he >> My daughter went in the car. >> She was your daughter sound like was in the car. Yeah. In the passenger >> in the passenger seat. >> And this your sister here? >> Yeah. >> Okay. So, your sister fell with a guy. The car went back and forth at some point when the car was either going forward or backward hit your son there. Um, your daughter was able to get out of the car and that's when our patrol guy in the truck here witness the whole thing stopped and got the guy out of the car. >> The reason he was in a handcuff immediately, a couple reasons actually that I want to explain to you two reasons why he was in a handcuff. When I first got here, I was told it was just injury accident, not a kidnapping. So that's why I didn't know. No, I just want to explain to you because I'd be pissed too as a parent. >> Uh, sir, >> here. He's gonna want to talk to you, too. >> Because he told me he's going through some, but he didn't ask a lawyer. He didn't want to talk to him. >> But they got good over here. So, I'm going to go watch this video. So, I'll be back with you guys. In the end, Andy Bala was charged with attempted kidnapping with a potential life sentence along with multiple other charges. In the next case, we have Gregory, a middle-aged kidnapper who attempted to abduct an individual under the age of consent for nothing more than his own selfish gain. >> Then he asked if I could go with him somewhere to get a drink for $300. I said no. I kept walking and he looked a little aggravated and then he grabbed me and I just ran. >> I didn't touch her. I didn't threaten her. I didn't do anything to scare her. I asked her if she wanted to go have drinks. >> On January the 3rd, 2026, the Eustace Police Department received a distressing call of an attempted abduction. As soon as they arrived, they were met with a shaken victim and her mother. The victim began to recount the horrific event she had just witnessed. And it was evident that this nightmare wasn't one she could leave behind so easily. >> Do you think you can tell us what happened? I was walking back from the store cuz I wanted to get something like a drink and then as like right couple minutes after this white vehicle pulls up and asked me if I wanted to go like if he knew any fun places. I just said no. I kept walking and then he asked if I could go with him somewhere to get a drink for $300. I said no. I kept walking and he looked a little aggravated and then he grabbed me and I just ran. >> What did he grab you? >> Gray hair. >> Okay. Can you describe him for me? >> Like white short [music] spiky hair with her type of glasses. >> So white white hair or white male? >> White hair. >> Okay. >> White man, too. >> Okay. >> Uh [clears throat] he looked to be 50s maybe 60s. He was wearing a blue t-shirt and it was like a white SUV. >> So, what exactly happened then? >> I was coming back from Sonokco from trying to like get a drink, but I didn't have enough money. >> Okay. >> And on my way back, this like white vehicle stops and tries to like talk to me asking if I want if he knew any fun places to like drink. So, I said no. I kept walking. Then, he offered me $300 to go with him. I said no. Kept walking. He seemed a little aggravated and then tried to grab me and got me right here a little bit, but I just kept running. >> All right. Uh, we'll be right back. Thank you. So, this man, do you remember where he was when he he grabbed you? Was he, you know, in the vehicle? Out of the vehicle. In the vehicle. He like reached his arm out and tried and then once I ran he just like started like >> he he tried grabbing you or he did grab you. >> He he almost like he got a little bit of it >> so on the hoodie. >> Yeah, he So he did like grab the hoodie. >> Yeah, a little like he got a little bit of it but then I started to run. >> I was close almost to the stop sign kind of. >> So that's a intersection, right? >> Were you at Listen, >> I don't know. [laughter] >> Stop. Look at me. It's a lot of questions. Look at me. [laughter] >> Look at me. Were you closer to the gas station? >> All right. >> Yep. Well, um, give her a moment. >> Well, given her mental health history, she's not going to come out of this in just a moment. >> Okay. >> Have there ever been any other uh complaints of >> There was one other time when she was walking down this way. There was a um another incident where a probably I want to say a 30-year-old man had cat called her and went around the block like three times while she was walking and she ran home, but I never reported it because he never touched her and never came near her. >> Uhhuh. >> Um normally she walks with pepper spray and she didn't take it today. Now, uh, Mom, are we pressing charges here or? >> Um, if you find him. >> Yep. >> Okay. >> Yeah. I mean, I don't want him doing that to anybody. So, um, I didn't call the 911 line. I ended up calling the 24-hour dispatch on a previous card from Eustace PD finally get through. I didn't witness anything. All I got was the phone call from the store. >> So, she went back to the store, I think, and called you. >> Yeah, she ran back to the store cuz she doesn't have phone service. um she's been getting in trouble and I refused to pay the cell phone bill. >> Okay. >> So, she had her phone with her, but she didn't realize that she could call 911 without phone service. So, that's why she ran back to the store to use the phone. >> Okay. So, they're reviewing footage now at the at the gas station. >> Mine is just stuck on. >> Yeah. [music] Kind of >> in shock. They they >> Well, the first question The first question she asked me is, "Is it because of what I was wearing?" And I said, "Well, did you have your jacket zipped up?" "Yes." And I said, "Then it's not because of what you were wearing." >> There's just crazy people out there. Yeah. Um I mean >> I mean it doesn't matter what she was wearing. >> Unfortunately, it's a world we live in. >> The officers eventually returned having found inconsistencies in the girl's story. She wasn't home, but her mother was. And she revealed some troubling details about her daughter that could potentially cast new shadows on this case. >> So there are some uh kind of like details that are a little bit different from how I was told. There was a male older gentleman. Well, not a gentleman under circumstances, but suspect that did approach her >> in the vehicle. >> Uhhuh. >> And it was a white vehicle. We got the model. Working on getting the plate now. >> Okay. >> Uh we did trace a car down to the location in the area that she uh described. >> Okay. >> However, again, there are certain minute details that are inconsistent. >> Okay. >> So, we were wondering if we can kind of ask her and [music] try to at least most importantly get what he said to her. Is she Is she here? >> No, she just left with her boyfriend. Uh, the cops are here again, so they want to ask her a couple more questions. >> Yeah. [music] >> All right. You're on speaker. They're asking if you can come back. >> It won't take too long. >> I could do it over the phone. >> Well, are they far from here? Maybe we can meet up with her. >> They want to know if they can drive back. It just started. >> Okay. >> What does What does the boyfriend look like? >> He's like 6'4. No, he's white. Yeah, he's 6'4 white. I may not have seemed like over. >> No, you were keeping it together. >> You've been here with her mental illness before. >> So, I am not 100% certain what's truth and what's not when it comes to what she tells me. >> Which is why she said what she said, so I called. Um, but at the same >> sense, I don't know if she's 100% >> and I'm not saying experience, but in general with her, >> we take every case seriously. Obviously, we did our due diligence. Now, some of it does add up. The I guess bigger picture of it does add up. However, again, the details, some things aren't really adding up, you know. >> So, all I know is what she told me. >> No, I don't want her [music] to get scared and think, oh, you know, you know, maybe she changed a couple of things. I don't know. Yeah. >> I don't want her to think that she's in trouble. You know, we're just trying to crack the case. Did she mention that she was robbed? >> She told me that he had grabbed her hoodie. >> There was physical touch, right? >> He had pulled on her is what she said and she was able to get away. >> And what was he asking from her? Like >> she told me that when he first started talking to her that she he asked her if she knew anywhere fun that he could drink. >> Yep. and then asked um would she go with him for $300 >> and she she said no both times and then that's when he reached out and grabbed her and she ran back to the store. >> Maybe true, you know, that's why it's important for us to kind of dive in a little more. >> The girl eventually returned angry, but at least she answered all the questions she was asked, giving the cops the clarity that they sought. Yet, just as things seemed to settle, something happened and it left the officers uneasy. >> He's leaving. You got to go. >> It's not going to take long. You want something to wait? >> I'm coming over here. >> Well, they're over there. >> That's all right. We can We can come over here. >> We'll go over there. >> So, we did some investigating everything. Uh, we just want to ask some further questions just so we can crack the case. All right. >> You're not in trouble or anything. Obviously, we just need more details so we can get whoever this guy is. Okay. >> Mhm. Uh, what were you going to the store for? >> To get like some chips and drinks, but I didn't have enough money for both of them, so I didn't get any. >> Chips and drinks. All right. >> Are Are you sure? All right. Did you interact with anybody when you got to the store? >> I interacted with an old friend. He wanted me to buy a vape, but I said I had to go. >> Okay. Yep. You said you were walking down the street and this vehicle approached you, right? The white vehicle. You said he asked you about a place to go to, right? That's all true. Um, is there any more detail into it or anything like that? Um, besides the saying to get in the vehicle for $300, did he say anything else or >> And uh, do you remember anything you said back to him? >> I said no and I kept walking. >> Did he touch you? >> He went out to grab and then I started running. >> Okay. >> Where was he? Where was he parked? Hey, I don't know. >> Y'all ask me so many questions. I DON'T KNOW. IT ALL HAPPENED SO FAST. I JUST WANT TO LEAVE. YOU need to calm your because they're trying to do their job together. >> I don't know how much more to say. I IT ALL HAPPENED SO FAST. I DON'T KNOW. THEN QUIT YELLING AT THEM. >> All right. If you need a moment to just >> I just wanted to go with my boyfriend and everything's gone wrong. I can't even see him now. >> I mean, he can come back. >> He can't. He doesn't have enough gas. Did you approach the vehicle or >> No, I tried to keep walking. >> So, a vehicle came to you? >> Yes. >> All right. >> To follow behind you or >> I don't know. I just I kept walking and he was right there. I did. I saw him approach and then I just tried to keep walking. I don't know where he came in at. >> So, okay. Listen to what I'm saying. Calm down. It's just we're trying to find out because we we saw a video surveillance that it it kind of shows something a just a little bit different. So, we're trying to and I know this is all fresh to you and all that. or shocking to you what happened. So maybe you remembered a different way, but the truth. So and when you kept walking, you >> he seemed aggravated and I felt something. I don't know. >> Okay. >> It felt like he grabbed me. >> Okay. All right. >> So that's when I started running back and that's when he drove off. >> Now, are you 100% sure he grabbed you? >> I don't know. It felt >> Okay. No, it's all right. It's okay. >> They have to ask questions in order to do their job. Jesus Christ. >> Fine. It's just a pseudo seizure from stress. >> Okay. Uh, do we need to call medical for that or are you sure? >> Yes. >> Um, are you sure you do not want to call medical? >> I'm positive. She doesn't She doesn't have epilepsy. >> Okay. But is this like a seizure? >> Cuz I mean it appears like a seizure. >> It's a pseudo seizure. It's her body's response to [music] stress. >> Okay. I have spent over $100,000 in medical these last year because everybody keeps calling 911 and they put her up to the machines and nothing happens. >> Okay. Yeah.

So, >> I swear to God, I didn't do anything wrong. I uh >> I saw a girl and I uh I uh she smiled and I was like, "Hey, you know," and she started walking. So, I drove up and said, "Hey, you know, any places around here you can hang out and get some drinks?" Cuz I don't go to bars, you know, since I came back home. >> Okay. And what did she say? >> She started talking about uh she didn't know a whole lot of places. She started talking about a bar called Fat Cats that I've never been to. >> Okay. >> I said, "Is it pretty cool?" She goes, "Yeah, it's good." I said, "You go there?" She goes, "Yeah, sometimes." And I uh Oh, I asked her um I said, "So, what are you doing right now? I want to I want to go uh have some beers and some pool, have some fun, you know, play some darts." >> Okay. She was like, "Oh, I can't. I got a boyfriend." I was like, "Okay, cool." And you know, after that, she just, it was weird cuz she started running back to where she came from, but I was like, "Okay, I mean, I didn't do anything wrong. I had no intention of doing anything." Then I uh >> Is it possible that that I have video footage of that interaction with you and you with this female? >> If what >> is it possible that I have video footage of that interaction with you and this female? >> I don't know. >> Okay. >> I don't know. >> So, everything you're telling me is true? >> Yeah. I mean, I'm being honest. I just was driving to work and I I saw her and I said, "Hey, she's she's cool." But then when she started talking about her boyfriend, I said, "Oh, I didn't know he had a boyfriend." >> Did you ask her age? Did you know she was of age? >> I don't know. She she was tatted up. And I just asked her if she knows any bars. I mean, I just asked her if she wanted to go to the bar, have some drinks. I I mean, I I didn't do any problem with that. I'm assuming that's why you're talking to me right now cuz then I went to work and then I came home and I've worked every day since Christmas. Did you ever So you said you invited her to the car. You told her to get in the car. >> No. No. No. I asked >> Did you ever invite her in a car? >> Do I? >> Did you ever invite her into your car? >> Yeah. >> No. No. I asked her if she wanted to go to the bar. >> I said, "You want to go to the bar and have a drink?"

And I was like, and then she started walking. [music] She started walking and all a sudden she started running. I was like, "That's weird." >> Okay. >> And next thing I know, you're asking me what I did on Saturday. I'm like, "Well, I guess that's what you're talking about." >> Okay. >> And I went to work and I worked till >> 4:00 a.m. >> Did you ever put your hands on her or did you ever friendly or did you >> No, I never got out of the car. >> Interaction. Was there any interaction physically whatsoever? Even if it was minor. >> No, I never even got out the car and she never came. Probably from where you are away from the car. >> So, you was inside your car. What did she come up to you? Driver's side. >> Um, she was >> You can stay right there. So, just explain to me. Yeah, >> she was standing right there and and like 3 4t away from the car. >> Okay. >> She came up to you. >> Yeah. I asked her I asked her um about bars in the area. I mean I mean I don't know why. Am I being accused of something stupid? I'm just these are the questions that I'm asking. So, we're working an investigation obviously with the female. That's right. >> In reference to the incident. So, I just want to get your side. I like to be fair. >> I'm the detective assigned this case. So, I have nothing to >> You know what I mean? But you didn't ask for her age or anything.

Yes. >> Okay. >> My wife's in Nicaragua. >> Yes, sir. >> Does she live here with you, sir? >> No. The reason I live here is um my mom and dad. I used to stay over there and it just needed privacy. You know, you didn't want to stay with mom and dad and so I I rented a room here. >> Okay. So, you just driving by, you saw this girl walking around. You just decided to say, "Hey, where's a nice place to go get a drink?" >> Gregory's well-crafted tale flowed smoothly, but as the cops listened, they already knew that nothing he said could change what was coming. >> And she was cordial with you and >> never touched her. >> Never touched her. And and the weird thing is I didn't do anything that would make someone want to run like she did. >> Okay. >> You know, cuz when when she said, "No, I have a boyfriend." So, >> so why is it that you think she ran? >> I don't know. Let me ask you. >> I don't know. >> If you just had a friendly conversation with her and she was giving you places, why would she run from your vehicle? >> The only thing I can think of is cuz she was walking and I pulled up and stopped and I started talking to her. >> Okay. >> And I would have done that with any That's my phone ringing alarm. >> Don't worry about that. Yeah. But uh the only thing I think of is she probably uh with me driving, I stopped and and I was asking her questions. She probably was maybe nervous, >> right? >> But uh I didn't I didn't touch her. I didn't threaten her. I didn't do anything to scare her. I asked her if she wanted to go have drinks. And honestly, I didn't think about it after I left. Like, damn, I guess I'm going to go to work. >> Okay. >> I've been working. I think I've had one day off in two weeks. >> I just wanted to I just wanted to have a few beers and relax. And I asked her if she wanted to go have some beers. Is it usual that you stop girls walking around to say hi to them? I'm just asking. I'm not trying to. >> No, I was >> So, what made you stop this specific girl that was walking? >> I think I was bored. >> Was bored? >> Just bored? I I thought she looked cute. I I thought I would say, "Hey, I don't know >> how old she is." I didn't threaten her. I didn't do anything. >> So, if you don't know somebody's age, wouldn't it try to clear your mind? At least for me, saying, "Hey, let me check this girl's age first to make sure that she's of age at least." You know what I mean? >> No. When I stopped, I saw the tattoos on her and I thought she was just another a woman. I said, "Hey." I asked her about bars. She told me one. I said, "You go there often." She goes, "Yeah, every once in a while." And >> was this after you left Wendy's? Cuz I could check Wendy's, too. And after that, you started driving back. And then what happened? You laid eyes on her driving? >> Yeah. I I laid eyes on her. I pulled in, she was walking. I pulled up said, "Hey." I mean, honestly, that's all I did is ask her if there's any place to get drinks. >> Mhm. >> Any place around? Cuz see, when I grew up here, there's a few place I'd go to. Okay. >> And her clothes now. Just ask her if there any place. >> And then after you said that you saw her running away, what did you do after that when you saw that she was leaving away from you? >> I just went to work. >> You went to work. You went straight to work. >> Yeah. Yeah. If she would have said, "Yeah, let's go get some drinks and fat cats, whatever." I said, "Okay." And I would have called in cuz I was I mean working a lot. >> Okay. >> You know, I just wanted to I just >> So basically, you were just bored and thought she looked cute and you just try to say hi to her and >> Yeah. But I didn't try to scare her, anything like that. No. >> Right. And once again, nothing physical happened. No interaction at least. Did she put her hand on you? Did she go to your window? Did you you try to be friendly with her? And >> No, she never came within probably [music] three 3 ft of the car. She never even touched the car. We didn't have I never told her to get in. She never asked to get in. There was any none of that. >> Okay. >> Now I feel stupid for even asking her about the bar. I mean, but I never expected you to be having these things on me asking these questions. >> Yeah. Um, is that your story? That's it. Like that's that's pretty much what happened. >> Yeah. I didn't do anything to me. He told me his story. >> No. >> Greg, thanks for being honest with us. But >> my way, >> she's years old. You know, juvenile. >> She complained to us right away. So, >> journey thing. Now, I mean, I didn't know it was a big deal to ask, >> you know, she's telling a different story. >> So, right now, if we're going off for her story, we're going off of video footage. So, right now, you are being placed under arrest. >> Under arrest? >> Yep. You are under arrest. We are going to tow your car because we want to make sure you're not involved in anything else, ma'am. >> I'm not at all. >> I'm just being honest. I have no reason to lie to you. So, you are being placed under arrest and then you you're going to have to go through the court and see through it, right? So, I'm just letting you know. All right. >> Talking about kids and whatnot, it gets kind of dangerous. >> I swear to you guys, I didn't do anything. I didn't have any intention to do anything wrong. >> I've been doing this job long enough to know that everybody deserves a second chance. So, >> I I'm being totally as honest with you guys. I >> I didn't threaten her. I didn't offer anything to her. >> And then once I'm done with the paperwork, we'll take you to Lake County Jail. All right. They'll set your bond and all that. Are you serious? >> Yes. I'm being serious. So, I have no reason to lie to you. >> Okay. I'm I'm excuse >> I got This is why we're not here for no reason, sir. >> No, no, I got you. I'm speechless. >> This is the job we do, man. Like I said, I've been doing it a long time. So, >> yeah, I get you used to it. >> I'm retired military. >> That's why the gray hair. >> I don't retired from the Navy. >> I respect everybody. >> She gave us a positive ID today. >> Yeah. >> Gregory was eventually charged with attempted kidnapping and battery on a minor. His bail was set at $500,000. Still on evil kidnappers getting caught in the act, we have Eduardo Joo Gdoi, a cruel man who not only abducted a woman but also stole from her, bound her to a tree and fled with her vehicle. On December the 25th, 2024, officers received an emergency call concerning an armed kidnapping at some residences. Upon arrival, the cops treaded with caution, knowing Eduardo was armed and that they could very well be walking into their own doom. >> This is the police department. Come out now with your hands up or I will release my canine. foreign. >> All right. Come over here to the right. >> Hey, call him out to the right. Let me get >> Are we bringing him over to the right? Let me get less lethal over here. >> Hey, have him walk back. We can't see in the car. I don't want to knock by the car. Come back in.

Cook, we got shield on you, bud. >> Y got taser. >> All right, boys. It's a no touch can lead It's got >> good job, guys. >> Constantly on the run, Eduardo sped away in the car belonging to someone he had abducted. With that, the cops turned their attention to the vehicle, desperately seeking a lead that might drive the case to its ultimate climax. >> 77 will crack. [snorts] You make this make me new for me. >> This little white thing underneath my water. >> We're good now. I just going to hand you all these rounds. >> I thought they were chains. Only money. >> It's money. >> Yeah. >> You speak English? >> Little bit. A >> little bit. Do I need other weapons on you or anything? >> Let's go take some dogs and ski like a bag. He's got so much rounds on him. >> Can you get an FI and all that stuff on him? >> I can and all that. Yeah, that was all casings. Maybe a little bit of change mixed in there, but it was all casings. Who? Who? [snorts] >> I don't know. I didn't even look. I was just grabbing handfuls of casings. >> Yeah, it's all right. I don't know that county's got anything worth eating. >> How do you uh clear these? >> So on this one. >> Yeah. Try pulling that out. >> Oh, fully loaded. >> Yep. Fully loaded. So take pictures of that, too. Or at least get it up in your body camera. See? Hours before the police received the kidnapping report, the victim had been found in grapefine with marks still visible on her wrists. [music] She told authorities that the suspect had forced her to drive to an ATM, stole money from under threat of harm, and then taken her to a residential area. there. He tied her to a tree with her own shoelaces before fleeing with her vehicle. It was her account that led the cops straight to Eduardo. [music] As the cops scoured the vehicle, crucial pieces of evidence continued to come to light, leaving no doubt that Eduardo would not escape the reckoning that awaited him. So, here's the Um, I will take all the property and book it in. Will you just follow the need someone to go from the barn because don't want le prints. Um, I'm going to grab the barn and then also these seats like let me call somebody. >> Eduardo was transported to the station and taken in for booking. He moved through the process like it was a routine, unaffected by the gravity of his actions. >> Oh, just this is Yeah. You want to start a new one cuz this is a lot over here. >> Pick up your eyes for me, please. There you go. >> Was that your arms? >> [snorts] >> All right. Yep. Thank you guys.

The following case centers on Cameron Hopkins, a vile man who kidnapped his girlfriend using a firearm, resulting in a harrowing sequence of events that led to tragedy. Fire. Hey, I'm behind you. I'm behind you. >> Eyewitnesses at Kala's Wingstop [music] restaurant explained how it all started. Uh, he appeared to be a little frustrated. So, what he did is he walked behind the counter. The lady, I'm assuming that was the manager. What are you doing? Don't be going beyond this point. He proceeded to go in the back, uh, accosted her back toward the rear of the store, grabbed her by the arm, and walked her out of here with a weapon. He accosted the young lady by the arm. He had uh his gun on him. >> Moments later, body cam footage from the Fireville Police Department showed cops going after Cameron in a high-speed chase. They're about 105 down road coming up road. >> As officers got out of their squad cars, they heard. But it is unclear at this point who got radio fire. >> Hey, I'm behind you. I'm behind you. >> I don't know. >> After a couple of minutes, the cops noticed movements from the [music] car. It looked as if somebody was coming out with their hands raised. And the cops knew that it would be the most volatile moment of the takedown. >> He's coming out and down him right there by the car. The the passenger door. >> Climb out. >> Yeah. He's going to climb out. >> Make him climb out. >> Hold on. Hold on. Hold on. Let me shield. >> I'm coming with the shield. >> STAND BY. SHIELD. SHIELD. SHIELD. >> Back up.

No, cuz the gun went off on her. Okay. >> We're not arguing with you, dude. >> All right. We're going to stick your head out. Stick your head out. We're going to dump this on you so you can get some of that OC out of your eye. >> Where is she? Yes or no? Do you want more water? Can I use one anyway? >> Where is she?

But >> I saw two people and I >> I thought I actually had a black hood cuz I it it passed me southbound on 314 after I just left up there in Kenwood.
