Alexis Manigo, aka Kamiyah Mobley, wept openly at a South Carolina jail as she said farewell to Gloria Williams, the woman who kidnapped her from a Florida hospital on the day she was born.
Williams, 51, abducted Mobley 18 years ago while she was an hours-old newborn baby at a Florida hospital. Williams, dressed as a nurse, took the baby from her mother and left the hospital.
Authorities said that woman was Gloria Williams who blew a kiss to Manigo as she waived extradition to Jacksonville, where she will face kidnapping charges. ‘I love you mom,’ Manigo told Williams as the two shared a moment, separated by a mesh screen in the Colleton County Jail in Walterboro, South Carolina. She could also be heard crying ‘Momma’ through the caged window of a security door and told Williams she was ‘praying for her’. Just hours after police revealed that Kamiyah Mobley had been found, Manigo took to Facebook to defend her abductor. ‘My mother raised me with everything I needed and most of all everything I wanted,’ she wrote. ‘My mother is no felon.’ My mother raised me with everything I needed and most of all everything I wanted. My mother is no felon. h/t dailymail
The mystery of Kamiyah Mobley became a national sensation when she was stolen from her mother Shanara Mobley’s arms at the University Medical Center in Jacksonville in July 1998.
