'Abducted' Mom Charged With ID Theft, False Reports
Woman, 9-Year-Old Girl Flew From Philadelphia to Orlando, Visited Disney World, Cops Say
May 27, 2009
A Pennsylvania woman who vanished after calling 911 to say she had been abducted and stuffed in the trunk of a car along with her young daughter apparently faked the abduction, booked a flight to Orlando, where she checked into a hotel under an alias and then took her daughter to visit a Disney theme park, law enforcement sources told ABC News.
Bonnie Sweeten, 38, was taken into custody in Orlando after being apprehended by the FBI and Orange County police at the Grand Floridian resort and is being charged with false reports and identity theft, Bucks County, Pa., District Attorney Michelle Henry said this evening.
Sweeten will not face any federal charges at this time, the prosecutor said.
Her 9-year-old daughter, Julia Rakoczy, was with authorities in Orlando and was to be picked up by her father, Henry said.
While Sweeten's motive for fleeing was unclear, Henry indicated that domestic and financial problems were likely at the root of it.
She said Sweeten used a a co-worker's driver's license when she bought airline tickets and flew to Orlando after reporting the abduction.
