Nice parents. They kidnap their 19 yr. old daughter, tie up her hands and feet, then attempt to force her to abort her baby who was beyond 20 weeks.

“Katelyn stated to me that upon her parents finding out that she was pregnant, they told her she had no choice but to get an abortion,” Marino wrote in his court affidavit.

Katelyn Kampf escaped from her parents in Salem after persuading them to untie her so she could use a Kmart bathroom. After her father went into the men’s room, she used a cellphone to call for help, then ran to a nearby Staples store, where police found “a hysterical female hiding in the back of the store,” according to the affidavit.

She got into Marino’s cruiser while Sgt. Kristin Fili pulled over her parents.

“They told us initially they did take her here against her will, but they denied tying her up initially,” Fili said. “Obviously what happened was a crime. She was taken against her will.”

Authorities in Maine said the parents apparently thought that, in light of their daughter’s stage of pregnancy and the different abortion laws in each state, the abortion should be performed in New York. Fili said she did not know how many weeks pregnant she was.
