… I’d put more thought into my plan than just showing up with duct tape, handcuffs and a stun gun. Although honestly I have no interest in bullying someone to be with me.

AP: woman charged in ’second life’ kidnapping plot

CLAYMONT, Del. (AP) — A woman is charged with plotting to kidnap in real life a boyfriend she met through the virtual reality Web site “Second Life”.

Thirty-three-year-old Kimberly Jernigan from Durham, N.C., was returned to Delaware to face charges including attempted kidnapping. She was arrested in Maryland last week after fleeing the 52-year-old man’s home.

Court records say Jernigan drove to the man’s Claymont apartment armed with a stun gun, handcuffs and duct tape. But she fled the apartment when the man came home Thursday, discovered her and called 911.

Police said the two had met online on Second Life, a social interaction site where people create three-dimensional alter egos. But the man broke off the relationship after they met in person.
