In a recent article in the Aurora Beacon News, the Kane County Sheriff’s Department reported that a California woman is facing multiple felony charges in connection with a home invasion and domestic dispute in Aurora on Memorial Day. https://www.kcchronicle.com/2020/05/26/california-woman-charged-with-attempted-kidnapping-after-aurora-home-invasion/ai5thzs/
According to the article, the woman was attempting to take her 11-year old son away from the child’s father. Not unsurprisingly, a fight ensued, and the woman was charged with felony home invasion, attempted aggravated kidnapping, aggravated battery and aggravated unlawful use of a weapon. The upshot of the incident, at least as seen through the lens of family law, is an unlawful attempt to modify the allocation of parental responsibilities and parenting time (formerly called custody and visitation).
