San Bernardino, Ontario and Riverside Kidnapping Charges
Kidnapping is a serious felony offense, making a conviction qualify as a "strike" on a person's criminal record. This can have disastrous repercussions if a defendant already has a conviction on his/her record or if a person receives another strike at a later date. A second strike will result in double the normal penalties for that offense, and a third strike may result in life imprisonment. Kidnapping may also be classified as a state or federal crime. This means that an individual who is suspected of kidnapping may face investigation and prosecution not only by state law enforcement agencies but by federal agencies as well.
