Michael Wilson waived extradition Tuesday morning in Grand Junction, CO. The Bradley County Sheriff's Office began to prepare his return back to Bradley County.
Wilson was arrested last week, after endangered Bradley County child Skyla Wilson was found safe in Colorado with him, her non-custodial father.
At approximately 9:30 p.m. EDT on Wednesday, a multi-agency traffic stop on I-70 by the Grand Junction Colorado Police Department, Palisade Colorado Police Department, and Mesa County Sheriff’s Office led to the recovery of the child.
Authorities said, "Skyla Wilson is safe and appears to be unharmed, while Michael Wilson has been taken into custody in order to be extradited back to Bradley County."
Wilson has an outstanding warrant for “custodial interference” in which investigators will seek to amend the charge to “aggravated kidnapping”.
The Grand Junction Colorado Police Department is the investigative agency and has been working closely with Bradley County investigators, it was stated.
