A Pennsylvania woman who called 911 to report that she and her daughter had been abducted was charged with making a false report and identity theft after police found the pair at a Disney resort in Florida, authorities said Wednesday. Bonnie Sweeten, 38, told authorities Tuesday afternoon that she and 9-year-old Julia Rakoczy were kidnapped after two men in a Cadillac rear-ended her sport-utility vehicle in Upper Southampton, north of Philadelphia. They were being held in the trunk of the Cadillac, she claimed. Sweeten was arrested late Wednesday at Disney's Grand Floridian Resort in Orlando, Florida, said Michelle Henry, district attorney for Bucks County, Pennsylvania. Sweeten awaits extradition proceedings. Asked what tipped off investigators, Henry said, "It was a combination of different facts that just didn't add up." Sweeten's daughter is in state custody until her biological father picks her up, Henry said.

“It was a combination of different facts that just didn’t add up.”
1) Found them at Disney?
Good work, Kojak.
Hahaha! LOL! Good one, “Kojak!”
I figured it was fake when she was able to get a cell phone signal while locked in a trunk.
I want a cellphone that will work inside a metal box!
I wonder if mine does? I think I’ll go see!
WAIT....that was a TRICK, wasn’t it?
I’ve used a cellphone inside a metal elevator and only lost the connection every other trip.
This is a shame. This mom has royally screwed up. But I sympathize with her.
The divorce system pits parents against each other, instead of giving equal time to both.
Darn. you're on to me.
*nevermind*
Most FReepers thought this story sounded fishy.
FReepers got good sniffers!

What an embarrassment to the children.
Artificial Sweeten Air.
When I heard this story on the radio I threw the BS flag. It was too goofy to be real.
I send The Puns Of Death to pummel your head.
That story has been on the air a lot locally so when this new woman resurrects the same story the cops probably knew right away to look for her in Florida.
So many questions. Hope we find out soon. I never like the mis-named "Friend-of-the-Court". Talk about a real den of crooks, liars and thieves.
