Parents abduct 19 year old daughter to force her to have an abortion.
A Maine couple, incensed that their 19 year old daughter was pregnant, chased her into her front yard, tackled her and tied her up and carried her to their car and tried to drive her to New York to force her to have an abortion.
The Kampfs were upset that their daughter was pregnant by a man who is now in jail, police said, and the kidnapping began with an argument Friday morning at the parents' home.
"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 cell phone 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.
The police accompanied Katelyn Kampf to the mall parking lot, where her parents were circling in their car. Katelyn Kampf got into Marino's cruiser while Sgt. Kristin Fili pulled over her parents and asked for their license and registration. When Lola Kampf opened the passenger side door, Fili spotted rope, duct tape and scissors, she said Monday.
"They told us initially they did take her here against her will, but they denied tying her up initially," Fili said. Although Katelyn Kampf was not injured, "Obviously what happened was a crime. She was taken against her will," she said.
Authorities filed a temporary restraining order against Nicholas and Lola Kampf on behalf of their daughter.

This is one of the strangest stories I have ever read.
Usually, the press covers stories about alleged parental interference against abortions.
I wonder how this made it through the gate keepers!
And who made the religious fanatics the gate keepers? You don't know the facts or the people. Abortion is legal in this country and I suggest if you don't want one you should not have one. You think this is the first time a teenager has made things up about her parents or maybe has a mental illness that is onl now coming to light? America has become one dimensional and seemingly uncapable of critical thinking anymore.
Anon, I believe YOU are the one who does not know the facts of this case. The reason why the parents were so upset was because the father of the child was black, so right off the bat, it is about racism. Secondly, the woman as I made clear was an adult, not a child and was legally capable of making her own decisions. The parents tried to FORCE her to have an abortion against her will, thereby committing a number of federal felonies.
So is it a "choice" when someone FORCES you to have an abortion?
Maybe she wasn't the sharpest tool in the box in getting pregnant by someone who was in jail, but you know what? That was her choice to make. She believed that the child had a right to be born, regardless of the circumstances. The child is an innocent and did nothing to deserve being murdered.
Margaret Sanger, the founder of Planned Parenthood was an avowed racist and eugenicist. She made Adolf Hitler look like a piker, and she and her cohorts, apparently you among them, have killed more black people than old Adolf killed Jews. Over thirteen million black children were murdered by Planned Parenthood since 1960. For every black child born, THREE are aborted. Ol' Adolf only killed 6 million. Who is the Genocidal Maniac here?
