That year, Michelle started dating a man named David Hernandez, and over the course of a few months, he started spending a lot of time with Michelle and her children.
Now, we don't know if Michelle knew about her new boyfriend's criminal record, but a few years prior, in May of 2013, David had been driving around when he spotted a four-year-old girl in a parking lot, and at that moment, he decided to kidnap her. David snatched the little girl up and sped off down the road. But luckily, the police were nearby.

They ended up catching up to him, but David didn't pull over. He continued running from the police until he ultimately crashed his vehicle. Now, following this, he ended up getting charged with kidnapping, child abuse, and auto theft. But surprisingly, he was never actually convicted of anything.

Apparently, about a month after the incident, the charges were dropped after the four-year-old girl and her family moved out of state. And I guess because they weren't going to testify against him, David Hernandez walked free.
