Fletcher, 34, was abducted on her regular 4 a.m. jog Friday after stalked by Cleotha Abston, who’d waited for her to run past him, the police affidavit alleged. She had run from her home in the fancy Central Gardens neighborhood to a nice area near the University of Memphis campus.
Court records show Abston, 38, is a previously convicted kidnapper: he pleaded guilty to especially aggravated kidnapping and robbery in 2001. He was sentenced to 24 years and 11 years in prison respectively, although it is unclear how long he remained incarcerated and if he served his sentences concurrently.

“As the abduction was violent with, as captured on video, the suspect waiting for, then rushing towards the victim, then forcing the victim into the car, where she was confined and removed and continues to be missing, it is believed and supported by the facts and physical evidence that she suffered serious injury,” the affidavit said.
“Further, it is probable and apparent from witness statements that these injuries left evidence of blood in the car the defendant cleaned,” it continued.

“DNA found on the shoes matched DNA for Cleotha Abston” that was already in a police database, according to the affidavit.

Officers arrested him after finding him standing in the doorway of his home. “He attempted to flee but was taken into custody,” the police document said.
A witness said she saw Abston “cleaning the interior of the GMC Terrain with floor cleaner” just before 8 a.m. Friday morning and reported to police that “he was behaving oddly.” He was also spotted washing his clothes in a sink.
Police have yet to find Fletcher, and are continuing to ask for the public’s help in locating her. Abston would not tell authorities where she is.

Amen.
Why should he they treat him like royalty.
TV shows and movies too. I like NCIS, but these pretty little girls who weigh 105 lbs and have arms like pipe cleaners taking down husky men by poking their tiny hands at just the right places is absolutely delusional.
>> A car battery and some jumper cables to his nuts will change that.
NO!!! That’s just wrong, man!
The only “persuasion” you’ll get from a 12VDC rig is the pinching effect of those big clips on his nuts.
You need at least 120VAC. Better yet, a really high voltage like an electric fence charger, or a cattle prod.

I often regret, when voicing the simple biological fact that women are not constructed on average the same way men are on average, that I am often attacked by people as being sexist or worse, misogynist.
I simply state the fact, and that is hard for some people to accept. Being physically inferior to others due to biology is something everyone deals with, male or female, and nothing to be ashamed of. It just is.
I am constantly gratified to see that Conservative women generally understand and accept that biological reality, understanding it is a limitation and and not a weakness, except in the strict physical sense. Conservative women understand “context”, which can cause discourse on this subject to degenerate in its absence.
Intelligent men and women both understand the inherent dangers of putting yourself in a position of weakness by not using their brains.
The discussions sometimes go like this: “Yeah, Venus Williams could kick your sexist ass!” to which I have to respond “Yes, there is no doubt there. I am an old guy, out out shape and losing muscle mass every day. She is probably in the 10th percentile of female strength. If she goes out jogging and gets assaulted by a guy who is in the 10th percentile of male strength, it will be no contest.”
It is simple biology. I don’t feel inferior because biology hasn’t given me the ability to bear children, and women shouldn’t feel inferior because biology has conferred a strength advantage to men. It is reality.
And because it is reality, that explains why most true conservative women don’t get bent out of shape on this, but see it for what it is. And I respect them all the more for it.
Hello, it is hard to ‘REhabilitate’ someone who was never HALIBITATED in his or her earlier life. This individual, and too many other criminals, have years of crime and incarceration and have not changed their ways. The terms ‘recidivist’ and ‘career criminal’ should be removed from the lexicon. Institute third strike laws which require execution of third time offenders as they will NEVER change their ways. Pedophiles only get one chance, then to the gallows.
Another oppressed black at the hands of abusive white women joggers.
Sgt. Hank Voight of Chicago P.D. would get him to tell where she is. But of course that’s just a fictional TV show. It is one of the very few cop shows I’ll watch though. Zero political correctness in that character.
Sadly, more people will get killed because we are supposedly "woke".
In the meantime, the next generation may get more conservative. All the pro-life families are having children. Pro-choice families are aborting their children.
It is already happening in Israel with their Orthodox population and they are having societal and political issues on whether to conscript their Orthodox citizens in the military.

He could get out with a lien on a car.
Nancy Grace is a virus.
Removing a few of his teeth with that propane torch would be a start.
Good points about TV fighters. Unrealistic.
Only thing that might be supportive is I met a master of Shorin Ryu martial arts at my dojo on his tour of the US in the 1970s. He was really small but in competitions and demonstrations in his life he defeated the biggest bad guys.
But I believe most times it’s like the Woody Allen line:
“To me, in martial arts the bigger your opponent the bigger the beating he’s about to give you.”
RE: Hank Voight on Chicago PD using enhanced interrogation techniques....
Notice that was TV fiction.
In real life Chicago has no such police-——and is overrun by out of control vicious criminals and runaway shootings.
But legal system niceties are followed to protect the criminals fully.
Yeah. Small men can be deadly. But small women? I doubt it. Even small men have bone density and upper body strength that women just cannot match. My step-dad is 5'5". He's 73. He's a former Marine who works out and jogs every day. I absolutely would not advise even Serena Williams to mess with him.
Women have weapons, but they aren't in the brute strength category.
Food for thought.
RE: I absolutely would not advise even Serena Williams to mess with him.
Gruesome thought: a man attacked by Serena Williams and Hillary Clinton, each crushing the life out of him between their massive thighs. Have to unthink it.
Goldeneye (1995)
Xenia Zaragevna Onatopp. Assassin who crushes her enemies with her thighs.
Ha! I remember that!
The only way to shock people from a standard pickup truck would be via the ignition system, not the starting battery.
12 volts DC is too low. So is 24 volts DC. Won’t overcome your skin resistance, even when wet.
Nothing at all happens if you wet your fingers and touch a 12 volt car battery’s terminals.
Your tongue has extra sensitive cells and that’s why a 9V battery makes it tingle with the very close together terminals.
You are in far more danger from a car battery falling on your foot, than from the 12 volts DC.
