Juneau mother says daughter was nearly abducted at Native Youth Conference in Minnesota
JUNEAU, Alaska - It was a frightening incident for a young Juneau girl whose mother believes she narrowly escaped being kidnapped last week at a Native Youth Conference in Minnesota.
“By this time this lady was opening the door and she asked my daughter to take the bags into her room and my daughter said no,” Kookesh said. “The lady then told her she had drugs in her room that she can give to her or share with her, and my daughter again said no, and told her that she’s only 15 and that she’s a minor. At this point, the lady got very upset and put her hands on my daughter and started yelling at her in her face.
Marcie Kookesh wonders about what criminal charges will follow. Police have told her the woman could only be charged with assault instead of attempted kidnapping because the door to her room was never closed. “I believe that there was a group of people who were scouting our students and were at the hotel and this was one of the incidences where they were trying to abduct Jadelyn and put her into human trafficking,” she said.
