California Considers Kidnapping Charges

By immigrationprof

As we posted earlier on the blog, Florida has put asylum seekers on planes to Sacramento in recent days. Yesterday, according to The Guardian, Governor Gavin Newsom threatened possible kidnapping charges resulting from the flights that did not appear to have the consent or full understanding of those put on the flights. Attorney General Rob Bonta of California explained that if Florida supported the flights, it could be guilty of “state-sanctioned kidnapping.”
