Utah Mom Charged With Kidnapping Her Child’s Alleged Bully
Published 3 weeks, 2 days ago
Description
Prosecutors have charged 40-year-old mom Shannon Tufuga with child kidnapping and aggravated child abuse after police say she snatched an 11-year-old off his bike and took him to her home. Police say Tufuga then forced the child to apologize to her son for allegedly bullying him and threatened him with violence if he did it again. It appears Tufuga has lost her job with Provo City as a crossing guard and is now facing up to 10 years behind bars, but her attorney says there is a whole other side to this story and that the boys’ claims are “not accurate.”
