A man who calls himself a witch has been arrested and charged with kidnapping in connection with the disappearance of Leila Cavett, according to a criminal complaint filed in Florida.
Leila’s two year old son, Kamdyn, was found alone in a parking lot last month, and Leila has not been located.
The man, identified in reports as 38 year old Shannon, was arrested Saturday. He had posted a video online saying he saw Leila and her son get into someone’s car. The FBI says its investigation does not support those claims.
According to the complaint, Shannon bought duct tape and extra large garbage bags around the time Leila disappeared. Investigators also cited an internet search on his device asking about commercial garbage pickup days in Hollywood, Florida. He is charged with kidnapping with the intent of collecting a ransom, reward or other benefit.
In an hour long Facebook video posted last week, Shannon said he knew Leila and was the last person to see her. By his account, she and her son showed up at his home in Alabama a year earlier saying their car had broken down. He also told investigators he had known her since January 2019 and that she came to South Florida to sell him her pickup truck the day before she went missing. He said they met at a gas station on July 25 and went to the beach, and that when they returned he saw her and Kamdyn get into a car. Investigators said surveillance video from the gas station does not show Leila getting into a car with her son.
FBI Miami Special Agent in Charge George Piro said that Leila’s separation from her son is “completely out of character,” and that her family and community are very concerned about her safety and well being.
The charge is an allegation, and Shannon is presumed innocent unless proven guilty in court. Baller Alert did not find a response from him to the charge.
