Kidnapping Suspect Gets 35 Years

September 2, 2011

An Escambia County man received 35 years in prison for kidnapping a woman.

Curtis Sanders Brown was sentenced by Judge W. Joel Boles to 30 years in state prison for kidnapping to inflict bodily harm upon or to terrorize the victim and five years for felony battery. Each sentence is consecutive to the other for a total sentence of 35 years in state prison, according to State Attorney Bill Eddins.

On July 25, 2009, the victim was at a closed business when Brown forced her into his vehicle and took her almost to the Alabama line before she jumped out of the vehicle. Two witnesses observed her jump out of the vehicle and called for law enforcement and medical assistance.

    Since he was sentenced, wouldn’t he no longer be considered just a suspect?

    She did jump out of the vehicle, just not until almost the alabama line,
    maybe she is just one of those people who freezes up or maybe she
    thought she could talk her way out.

    Glad she got away.
