Brothers Arrested in Teen Kidnapping

Two brothers, Manuel and Patrick Sanchez, have been arrested in connection with the alleged kidnapping and sexual assault of a 13-year-old girl taken from Apache Junction and held against her will until she was found safe in Miami, Arizona. The case began after a Turquoise Alert was issued, and authorities say Patrick picked her up at a gas station, while Manuel, a registered sex offender with 90s convictions, brought her to a home where she was held. A girlfriend of Patrick led police to the scene, and the girl has since been reunited with her family. Manuel faces a $1 million bond on kidnapping and tampering charges, Patrick faces a sex crime charge with a $500,000 bond. Both are set to appear in court next month as the community grapples with shock and fear over the disturbing case. Support the show:Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
