Two men suspected in the kidnapping of an elderly Frankfort Square woman might not see the inside of a Will County courtroom for years, Sheriff Paul Kaupas said Thursday.
Aaron D. Anderson, 20, of New Lenox and Dorian Yamini, 23, of Richton Park, were arrested Wednesday by Sulfur Springs, TX, police.
The pair, along with a third man already in custoday, have been charged by Will County in the March 4 kidnapping at gunpoint of the 69-year-old woman.
Prosecutors in Texas already have charged Anderson and Yamini with unlawful possession of a firearm, the Chicago Tribune reports. They were reportedly found with a handgun.
"Whether or not it’s a gun used in our crime, we don’t know that yet," Kaupas said on Thursday.
Both men could go to court in Texas before stepping foot in Will County again, Kaupas said. With the pair's criminal history, a conviction would possibly bring years in prison. A hearing for extradition back to Illinois also isn't likely anytime soon.
One man suspected in the kidnapping appeared in Will County court last week. A judge set bail at $1 million for Chavell Anderson, 21, of Hazel Crest. He was arrested March 7 and, along with Anderson and Yamini, is charged with armed robbery.
A surveillance video from a camera at the Wal-Mart in Crestwood helped identity the three suspects.
Authorities say the three men forced the woman into their car and stole her vehicle, before driving to a bank and withdrawing money from her account at an ATM. They then released her in Country Club Hills.

Do what does this mean? The fact that they kidnapped someone at gunpoint is going to get forgotten?

I believe that the great state of TX still has the death penalty. Save IL some lodging fees!

chikko - guess we will be seeing you in one of these stories. Do us a favor and go to Texas too.
They kidnap an old lady and they aren't bad people? Let God judge? Glad we don't have to wait for that. No one important? Why don't we just let these criminals in a room with the victims' families, that should show you who is important. Why did they think they were so important that they were entitled to something that didn't belong to them? Others work for their money, some think it's ok to steal from others. Wrong.
