TL;DR Summary

Yesenia Ramirez, the "mastermind" behind the kidnapping of a 3-month-old baby boy in San Jose last year, was sentenced to 13 years and four months in prison. Ramirez ordered her boyfriend to take the baby while she distracted the boy's grandmother. Prosecutors argued for the maximum sentence, saying Ramirez tried four times to kidnap the baby over a 2-month period before finally committing the crime. Ramirez's attorney described her as a broken person who had suffered a lifetime of abuse. Ramirez took responsibility for the crime and asked for forgiveness from the people she victimized.
