Orlando Kidnapping Lawyer
Defining Florida’s Kidnapping Statute 787.01
In the state of Florida, kidnapping is defined by section 787.01 as the forcible, secret, or threatening imprisonment of another person against their will and without lawful authority. In these cases, kidnapping is defined as having the intent to hold the individual for ransom, commit another felony, or inflict bodily harm.
Kidnapping charges often occur in conjunction with domestic violence charges—and the stakes are high. For individuals who are accused of kidnapping a family member or cohabitant in Orlando, criminal charges could also include domestic violence—meaning that the penalties can be even more severe. If you are facing this type of situation, you should not hesitate to contact an Orlando kidnapping attorney from our law firm.
