Tampa, Florida – United States Attorney Roger B. Handberg announces the return of an indictment charging Jet Sern Law (36, Plant City) with international parental kidnapping. If convicted, Law faces a maximum penalty of three years in federal prison. 

According to the indictment, in August 2024, Law removed a minor child from the United States with the intent to obstruct the parental rights of the child’s mother.

An indictment is merely a formal charge that a defendant has committed one or more violations of federal criminal law, and every defendant is presumed innocent unless, and until, proven guilty.

This case was investigated by the FBI. It will be prosecuted by Assistant United States Attorney Courtney Derry.
