Ann Pettway Wanted In Carlina White Kidnapping

The FBI is on the hunt for a criminal a woman named Ann Pettway who is said to have kidnapped a 19-day-old baby named Carlina White over 23 years ago.

This story from CBS/AP states that the girl was abducted from a New York city hospital and was finally reunited with her family 23 years later. Pettway moved from city to city using aliases and different forms of identification in order to elude authorities.

Pettway has continued to confound authorities who admit she has not been found since going on parole in North Carolina. She was on parole until 2012 but the long arm of the law is after her for the kidnapping of White.

White’s parents gave their account of the abduction after it is reported that they took a break after admitting the girl to a hospital for a fever.

Since the abduction Carlina White was raised under the name Nejdra Nance. The FBI states no suspects but the family insists the culprit is Pettway. It was Carlina herself who solved her lifelong mystery by contacting the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children.
Authorities are looking into whether state or federal jurisdiction applies to this case as the statute of limitations may have expired. However according to the story, there may be federal implications wherein the statue does not expire.
