Allison Lee Quets Arrested in Canada, Twins Tyler Lee and Holly Ann Needham Found Safe
Allison Lee Quets, the biological mother accused of kidnapping Tyler Lee and Holly Ann Needham from their adoptive parents in NC was arrested in Canada. Both Tyler Lee and Holly Ann are reported as being found safe and are now in the custody of Canadian Social Services.
Allison Lee Quets, 49, and the twins were found Friday night when police in Ottawa, Canada, acted on a tip, the FBI said in a statement early Saturday. The toddlers, Tyler Lee and Holly Ann Needham, were placed in the custody of Canadian Social Services.

Had the Needhams relinquished custody of Quets’ twins to her, this would have been quietly arbitrated in a civil suit for adoption costs.
However, the Needhams had coerced her into giving up her kids, using her weakened state to prey on Quets.
Thus this kidnapping happened because the Needhams felt they were more entitled to the birth mother’s kids than she is.
