Defending Against Kidnapping Charges in San Bernardino and Riverside
The penalties associated with a kidnapping vary, depending on the degree of force, the age of the victim, the distance traveled, and other factors. Regardless of the kidnapping you are charged with, it is important to mount a strong defense.
Kidnapping and false imprisonment are closely related crimes. A charge of kidnapping can sometimes be reduced to false imprisonment.
- Kidnapping: Under California law, kidnapping is defined as forcibly, or by instilling fear, taking another person a substantial distance.
- False imprisonment: Examples of false imprisonment include locking someone in a room or a house, dragging someone into a car, or disconnecting a phone line.
