Illegals getting kidnapped, on the rise
Very sad and very frightening.
They are kidnapped at gunpoint, whisked away, held for ransom, sometimes tortured. Sometimes, they are sent home. Sometimes, they end up dead.
They are involved in human and drug trafficking; many are illegal immigrants. They are kidnapping victims, and police say their numbers are on the rise.
Kidnappings have long been an issue among illegal immigrants, where predators know victims are less likely to turn to law enforcement. But authorities say the rate of such crime has reached a new high. The violence rarely touches legitimate businesses and citizens, police say, but it's happening close to home.
