Hours later, she and her husband Arturo were arrested in a motel, and the baby, Katya Valentina, was brought back, unharmed, to her parents. Mendoza was jailed for 13 years for kidnapping, and her case attracted huge media attention in Mexico, as she had faked a full-term pregnancy that had fooled her husband, family, and doctors.
