NYC man gets life in prison for abducting of ex's teen daughter, sex crimes
"Duane Taylor, 50, entered the Reading, Pa. home of his ex-girlfriend in the early hours of Aug. 31, 2022, abducted the girl, and took her to his Brooklyn apartment, prosecutors said. The victim's mother told investigators that she had last seen her daughter around 10:30 p.m. before going to bed. When she woke up on the morning of Aug. 31, she realized the back door of the home was wide open. Police also found that the door's chain lock was broken."
"She was located later that day after a person called 911 to report that a child was asking for help, saying she had been kidnapped from Pennsylvania. Taylor was later charged with kidnapping, travel with intent to engage in illicit sexual conduct, production of child pornography, possession of child pornography and transportation of child pornography. He pleaded guilty to all counts on June 5, U.S. Attorney for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania David Metcalf said."
Duane Taylor, 50, entered the Reading, Pa. home of his ex‑girlfriend in the early hours of Aug. 31, 2022, abducted her 13‑year‑old daughter, and took her to his Brooklyn apartment. The victim's mother last saw her daughter around 10:30 p.m.; she woke to find the back door wide open and the door's chain lock broken. Reading investigators contacted the New York City Police Department, who traced Taylor to his Brooklyn home but did not find the girl there. The girl was located later that day after a 911 call reported a child asking for help. Taylor was charged with kidnapping, travel with intent to engage in illicit sexual conduct, and multiple child pornography offenses; he pleaded guilty on June 5 and was sentenced to life in prison with $3,000 restitution and $3,500 in fines and assessments.
