Alleged Tennessee family kidnapper caught, girls found safe

Source: Fox News (sadly)

The Mississippi man suspected of killing a Tennessee mother and daughter was caught Thursday evening and the two other young daughters he is suspected of kidnapping were found alive, though there were conflicting reports of whether the suspect is alive or dead.

A law enforcement source initially told Fox News that Mayes died after the shooting, but Edwards says he's still alive -- in critical condition -- from a self-inflicted gunshot wound to the head.

Police say the two daughters that Mayes allegedly abducted, Alexandria Bain, 12, and Kyliyah Bain, 8, were found alive and safe. Both girls were being taken to a hospital for observation.

Horrible as the whole thing is, at least maybe he didn't harm them physically. I sure hope not.

Hugely sad for them loosing their mother and a sibling.

Him - I wish he had lived to spend the rest of his life in prison or mental hospital. I wish I could say the lunatic is out of these kids lives but they will be living with what he did for the rest of those lives
