Sisters kidnapped not runaways by family acquaintance
In Vestal New York two teenage sisters 15 year old Ky Lea Fortner and 13 year old Shaeleen Fitch Fortner were found safe after a tip led to their rescue. A 29 year old man Aman da Hellman is jailed on kidnapping charges and the girls mother Cindy Fortner 36 faces aiding and abetting charges. Prosecutors say the pair helped arrange the girls abduction and non return to their foster home. Authorities credited extensive state police investigations with tracking the girls for 11 months and securing their return to protective custody.
