The mother accused of abducting a South Elgin girl nearly six years ago has returned to Illinois to face charges after her daughter was found alive in North Carolina over the weekend. Heather Unbehaun, who is accused of abducting her then 9-year-old daughter in 2017, was released from custody in Buncombe County, North Carolina on Tuesday after posting $250,000 bail and was in custody at the Kane County Adult Justice Center as of 3 p.m. Wednesday. The Kane County State's Attorney's office said Unbehaun turned herself in Wednesday and appeared before a judge Thursday, where she was ordered to wear a GPS device and stay more than 1,000 feet from the father's home as he obtained an order of protection against her.
