Man and his mother arrested after kidnapped girl says she was raped, gave birth to captor’s baby

A 17-year-old girl who was reported missing two years ago escaped from a home in Washington Park, Illinois this week, according to news reports. The girl who is now 17 told police she was held against her will, beaten and repeatedly raped for 2 years by a man and his mother. The girl told police she gave birth to her captor’s child (who is seen being carried out of the home by members of a SWAT team).

According to reports, the girl, who was 15 when she vanished in April 2010, escaped from the home on Thursday and ran next door to a Mobil gas station, where she begged for help.

A SWAT team arrived and arrested a 24-year-old man and his mother without incident. A toddler and a 16-year-old boy, still wearing his school uniform, were also removed from the home around 5:30 p.m.

Police say the man’s mother assisted in the crimes against the teenage girl.

The girl told police she attempted to flee the home several times over the last 2 years, but the man chased her down and forced her back inside the house at gunpoint. The girl said the man and his mother, both unidentified, forced her to give a false name when she gave birth to the man’s son over a year ago.

But a next-door neighbor disputes the girl’s tales of kidnapping and forced imprisonment.

Neighbor Lakeitha Smith told local TV news stations that she saw the girl outside the home on numerous occasions. “I used to see her come out of the house, back and forth,” Smith said. “I didn’t think she was being held hostage in the house.”

      JUst becasue she was seen outside doesn’t mean she wasn’t held against her will. I mean she is a kid, i’m sure she was scared as hell and possibly threatened. Even is she wasn’t held against her will, he a grown ass man and him and his mama need to be locked up for having her there regardless.

      well it doesn’t say the child was 2…my bad. I’m not believing this story. She had her captor’s baby when? Cuz that damn sure aint the foot of a 2 year old kid. I wonder if other kids were in the home and this is 1 of them being carried away.

      Maybe she felt this was the right time to make her move and get away…how many times we’ve seen movies where people try to run away but it’s never the right time…they either get caught or something happens…maybe this was the perfect time for her to getaway.

      Bottom line should no parent have to deal with their child missing for two years.

      I still say those were some trifling NASTEE ass adults to have that girl there even if she went willingly. She was 15, they were both over 21. They ass need to be locked up regardless!

      Native New Yorker says:

      Yso I think that even if she went away willingly she was still a victim as an adult the man knew she was a child and he was fully aware and more than willing to participate a crime. His mother didn’t think of the girls parents and this went on long enough for her to have a baby? If they didn’t find anything wrong with the situation then they wouldn’t have went along and kept her there knowing they were committing a crime.

      An audio news report had the neighbor lady saying she saw the girl from time to time and it didn’t appear that the girl was being held against her will. But she also added: “If I’d known she needed help, I would have called for help.” I didn’t hear her say she doubted the child’s story. (sigh)

      @ Man…In theory, that is true but, who knows what they were doing to her and considering the fact that someone can stay with you the ENTIRE time you’re in labor now, maybe she was scared. Problem is, she was a child and they had no business with her there whether she wanted to be or not.

      Like other people are saying…even IF this girl considered that nigg@ her “boyfriend”, she was 15 and he was 22. It’s still statutory rape in most states. And nasty as fck in any state. Cause his mama was involved. And an innocent baby.

      Guess since she got pregnant and didn’t get away soon enough this was one of those “legitimate rapes” that Akin was talking about.

      Ugh. We need a new damn post.

      I’m with the folks that think runaway/prostitution. The house is next to a gas station, meaning high traffic for police and people in general. If/when the girl attempted to escape odds are there was someone around to see any incidents, especially if the dude had to stop her by gunpoint. If the neighbor is telling the truth about seeing the girl outside freely she had more opportunity than most victims to get away. I’m not saying she’s not a victim though.

      @DB #85…True, that would make a difference. I guess I just assumed she was older with the cute clothes. Your timeline is about right. I think my hair was some sort of braided most of the time and I got a perm at 14 to go to high school. Think it got pressed for Easter and Christmas starting at maybe 6 or 7.

      I am not disputing the kidnapping or abuse, I’m just saying that it probably started out “innocently” enough.
