Father of Three Held For Kidnapping Girl in Canada
A Toronto area man Phillip O Desse, 33, a plumbing contractor from Penetanguishene, was held after abducting 8 year old Alice Nesbitt, daughter of a wealthy Toronto lawyer. Alice was found unharmed within four hours, after a ransom call to her mother and a taxi-cab scene involving a 12 year old messenger. Police recovered the station wagon license and arrested O Desse, who reportedly was in debt. The Nesbitt family prepared to pay the ransom before Alice was released.
