“There’s no words right now to describe the anger I feel and the senselessness of this incident,” Sheriff Vern Warnke said. “I said it earlier: There’s a special place in hell for this guy.”
This undated photo provided by Merced County Sheriff's Office shows eight-month-old Aroohi Dheri, her parents, Jasleen Kaur, and Jasdeep Singh, and uncle Amandeep Singh, who were kidnapped from a south Merced, Calif., business Monday night, Oct. 3, 2022. Authorities are seeking the public's help in finding the family members and released photos of them.
“There’s no words right now to describe the anger I feel and the senselessness of this incident,” Warnke said. “I said it earlier: There’s a special place in hell for this guy.” Relatives of Jesus Salgado, 48, contacted authorities reporting that he had admitted to them he was involved with the kidnapping, Warnke told KFSN-TV on Tuesday. Salgado tried to take his own life before police arrived at a home in nearby Atwater, and he has since been hospitalized.Efforts to reach Salgado’s family were unsuccessful Wednesday.
“Please help us out, come forward, so my family comes home safe,” Sukhdeep Singh, a brother of the victims, said, his voice breaking. Investigators have not found a link between Salgado and the family to show they knew each other before the kidnapping.
