Nope, no worries, because either way, he kidnapped her. That language comes directly from the statute.Since I have the statement pulled up, someone earlier on was expressing concern about how Mickey got into his vehicle. The actual language in the plea agreement says she was "enticed or persuaded to enter the Defendant's Z71, or was forced into the Defendant's Z71." So I don't think there is any worries about the language matching what happened.
