Man Released After Child Abduction
from Boise News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!
A Washington man sentenced to three years and two months for kidnapping and assaulting a 12-year-old girl he met on a dating app has already been released — just months after his sentence — and will serve four more years on probation. He drove nearly 270 miles to pick her up, held her captive in his parents’ home for nearly a week, starved and abused her, and only let her out when his parents weren’t around. The girl, now recovering from severe trauma, was found malnourished and dehydrated after a neighbor raised the alarm. Her family called him a predator and said they’ll never be the same. Ironically, prosecutors in Idaho, where the girl was from, dropped further charges — saying the sentence already served was sufficient punishment. Holbrook apologized, claiming he regretted his choices. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
