Moran-Mora’s wife alerted law enforcement of her husband’s abduction which set off a 20-man police operation to try and find the man, which included the use of canine units. Deputies eventually tracked him down outside a 7-Eleven even though he had texted his wife asking her to call off the search because his kidnappers had freed him. Moran-Mora was charged with giving a false report to law enforcement despite the fact he never called the sheriff’s office.
