	Kidnapping - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Kidnapping for ransom is almost nonexistent in the United States today, due in great part to the Federal Bureau of Investigation's aggressive stance toward kidnapping.
		Kidnapping can also take place in the case of deprogramming, a now rare practice to convince someone to give up his commitment to a new religious movement, called a cult or sect by critics, that the deprogrammer considers harmful.
		Bride kidnapping is a term often applied more loosely, to include any bride physically 'abducted' against the will of her parents, even if she is willing to marry the 'abductor'.

	Bride kidnapping - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Bride kidnapping, also known as marriage by abduction or marriage by capture, is a form of forced marriage practiced in a few traditional cultures, in countries including Kyrgyzstan, Turkmenistan, Kazakhstan, the Caucasus region, Ethiopia and Rwanda.
		In agricultural and patriarchal societies, where the bride kidnapping is most common, children work for their family and a woman becomes the member of the groom's family at marriage.
		Being "kidnapped" might also be in the interests of the woman in such societies, as their role in the society would preclude them from choosing husbands for themselves, at the risk of being disowned or even killed, and under the law, their consent is not a factor in judging whether they were kidnapped.

	Lindbergh kidnapping - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Lindbergh kidnapping was the abduction and murder of Charles Lindbergh III, the toddler son of world famous aviator Charles Lindbergh, Jr.
		The kidnapping and subsequent trial might be described as a media circus: every development was followed by millions of people (and a few reporters did some very underhanded deeds in pursuit of the story); newspaper writer H.L. Mencken called the affair "the biggest story since the Resurrection."
		Parker speculated that bootleggers had tired of the perpetual attention from police since the kidnapping, and had procured an infant's corpse of roughly the same age as the Lindbergh baby, then placed it in the woods near the home in an effort to put an end to the search for the baby.

		In criminal law, kidnapping is the taking away of a person against the person's will, usually to hold the person in false imprisonment (confinement without legal authority) for ransom or in furtherance of another crime.
		In the past (and presently in some parts of the world such as southern Sudan), kidnapping was a common means used to obtain slaves; in more recent times, kidnapping in the form of shanghaiing men was used to supply American merchant ships in the 19th century with sailors, whom the law considered unfree labour.
		Kidnapping can also take place in the case of deprogramming, a now rare practice to convince someone to give up his commitment to a new religious movement (called a cult by critics) that the deprogrammer considers harmful.

	Suriving a Kidnapping by Duncan Long
		The kidnapping victim should keep track of what is going on, what the kidnappers are doing, what they call themselves, how many of them there are, etc. This information may be needed to help in the victim's escape or to later identify the kidnappers.
		The kidnapping victim should not tell the criminals their demands can't be met (nor should those who speak to the criminals during the initial phone call).
		Unless the kidnapping victim is in immediate danger, he should bide his time and wait for a slip-up among the criminals and then use the opportunity to escape.

		If the kidnapping parent is the subject of a federal criminal warrant, you can ask that his or her passport be revoked by the passport office.

		Kidnapping is capturing and holding in a secret place a spy, political personality or a notorious and dangerous enemy of the revolutionary movement.

	THE LINDBERGH KIDNAPPING HOAX Bruno Richard Hauptmann: Wrongly Executed April 3, 1936
		There is also a popular theory, originated and explained by the late Noel Behn in his book Lindbergh : The Crime - that Lindbergh's' sister-in-law, Elizabeth Morrow, killed her nephew in a jealous rage over having been spurned by the handsome and famous aviator.
		Forensic testing of the "kidnap ladder" and the attic floorboard - both on public display at the West Trenton State Archives and Police Museum - is necessary to exonerate Hauptmann.
		Lindbergh's belief in Eugenics (White Supremacy) also makes him suspect since it is possible his firstborn son was severely harmed during a 14-hour flight he forced his wife to undergo while in her 7th month of pregnancy.

	Poynter Online - Thursday Edition: Kidnapping Facts
		Based on the identity of the perpetrator, there are three distinct types of kidnapping: kidnapping by a relative of the victim or "family kidnapping" (49 percent); kidnapping by an acquaintance of the victim or "acquaintance kidnapping" (27 percent); and kidnapping by a stranger to the victim or "stranger kidnapping" (24 percent).

		Acquaintance kidnapping involves a comparatively high percentage of juvenile perpetrators, has the largest percentage of female and teenage victims, is more often associated with other crimes (especially sexual and physical assault), occurs at homes and residences, and has the highest percentage of injured victims.
