Accused kidnapper set to surrender
A woman being accused of kidnapping 5 children is set to surrender. She claims she took the kids for their own safety. Call us crazy, but protecting the children by abducting them seems like a wrong way to go about things…
The Houston Chronicle reports 44-year-old Rhonda Tavey says she’ll surrender today but no additional details were provided about the possible surrender.
Tavey and the children’s mother Erica Alphonse tell different versions of events that led to police issuing an Amber Alert for the Houston children.
Tavey, who is white, said all she ever wanted was to do God’s will and that she also took the children, who are black, for their own safety.
She said their mother was “abusive.”
Alphonse denies threatening Tavey and said she never would have thought, quote, “in a million years” that Tavey would take the children.
