Philadelphia police have released the latest in a series of surveillance videos showing a person of interest in the abduction of a woman in Germantown. The video, provided by the FBI below was released this morning. It shows the person of interest walking into a Philadelphia supermarket. Authorities are hoping this surveillance, as well as the previously released videos and photos, will lead to the arrest of a suspect and the location of the victim, 22-year-old Carlesha Freeland-Gaither.
The family says a former boyfriend from Maryland was obsessed with her and tracked her down.
“It scared her so she backed off from him, but he found her. When she came up here he found her,” said Carlesha’s mother, Keisha Gaither.
Keisha says the ex-boyfriend wanted Carlesha to send him naked photos, but she would not.
“He was very aggressive with her. He would ask her for pictures. She didn’t want to send pictures. He would harass her. He wanted naked pictures. She would not send it. She’s a young lady. She would not degrade herself and send naked pictures. He was pressuring her all the time for pictures,” Gaither said.
