Runaway Bride Indicted
Jennifer Wilbanks, the "runaway bride" who left her 600 guest wedding days before it was to happen has been indicted.
You may remember that she left her home on "a jog" and was later found in New Mexico after she claimed she was kidnapped from her Georgia neighborhood. She later recanted her story, and admitted that she had planned her escape from her wedding nearly a week earlier.
The Grand Jury has indicted Jennifer Wilbanks on two counts, with one being a felony count that carries a maximum sentence of 5 years in prison.
