Utah Couple Charged in International Parental Kidnapping to Cuba
TL;DR Summary
Two Cache County, Utah residents are charged with international parental kidnapping after allegedly taking a 10-year-old to Havana, Cuba, instead of returning the child to the biological mother per a custody order; the trio had planned a Canada camping trip but crossed into Mexico and Cuba, where Cuban authorities later located them and the child was returned to the United States, with Utah courts granting the mother exclusive custody. The FBI and federal and state agencies, including the Diplomatic Security Service and ICE, helped locate and recover the child, and the case is being prosecuted in Utah as part of Project Safe Childhood.
