Craig Ross, Jr. charged with kidnapping 9-year-old Charlotte Sena from Moreau Lake State Park in Upstate New York

SARATOGA COUNTY, N.Y. -- Craig Nelson Ross, Jr. was charged with kidnapping overnight in the disappearance of 9-year-old Charlotte Sena in Upstate New York.

Sena went missing Saturday evening at Moreau Lake State Park, about 35 miles north of Albany, while riding her bicycle.

Her family released a statement Tuesday acknowledging how fortunate they are she was found unharmed, hiding in a cabinet in the suspect's camper.

This is the creep that took her-

Four hundred certified search and rescue personnel, including the FBI, launched a massive two-day search that ended when authorities say the suspect unintentionally handed them a break in the case.

"[He] literally drove up to the family's mailbox, assuming they were not home, 4:20 in the morning, opens the mailbox and inserts the ransom note, leaving a critical piece of evidence behind -- his own fingerprint," Hochul said.


Police said Ross, Jr.'s fingerprints were in their database from a 1999 DWI case in Saratoga.

A good example of a dis-organized criminal. Impulse act, with no actual plan. I am glad the girl was not harmed, physically. The guy could be the national poster person for the " too dumb to not get caught " look. JimB.

Dude looks like about a 40 IQ.

I hope the article is accurate that the little girl was unharmed.

I read about this yesterday... thank God she was found

What a terrifying thing that he could so easily kidnap this child. I wondered if he'd already harmed her before she was found in a cupboard in his home..I sincerely hope not... in the report it said he gave up a terrific fight with the police before they were able to arrest him... that really made my blood run cold because it shows the determination these people have to murder or rape children...

Overjoyed she was found. She physically reminded me of a girl I knew. Was so worried for her, thank goodness she is okay.

This is every parents worst nightmare.

So glad she was found .. hopefully unharmed.

I am so glad the young one was found unharmed.

Happy to know the girl was found alive. Too many sickos around these days.

I was so happy to see the news report yesterday that she was found safe and physically unharmed. But the whole time I felt like she and her friends should not have been allowed to go riding without an adult riding with them. There have been so many reports of women who have been abducted and/or killed in parks; there's no way I'd let my little girl be out there unchaperoned. I think people feel that nothing bad will happen where they live, work or play because it's a nice neighborhood or area and it's "safe". No place is safe anymore!

I was delighted to hear this news yesterday, so often it’s a terrible ending for these defenceless children, you really cannot let them out of your sight these days

I hope the sick pig who abducted her gets locked up and they throw away the key

This was a good result and the little girl is unmolested,
the person, thing, who took her looks really weird!

I can only wonder how she is doing mentally. I would imagine it was quite traumatic.
