CANYON COUNTY, Idaho — Two people from Greenleaf were arrested Tuesday on felony charges of second-degree kidnapping.
The couple – Matthew Rettkowski, 40, and Alisha Rettkowski, 34, allegedly coordinated a plan to kidnap a minor from Phoenix, Arizona, on Sept. 23. The minor’s father resides in Greenleaf; however, the juvenile had recently moved to Arizona to live with his mother.

Upon investigation, the Canyon County Sheriff’s Office (CCSO) and the Wilder Police Department found the minor with Alisha Rettkowski and arrested the Greenleaf couple on felony charges.
Matthew and Alisha Rettkowski were booked into the Canyon County Jail on felony second-degree kidnapping charges on Sept. 26. As of Thursday, Matthew is in custody on a $100,000 bond. Alisha was also held on a $100,000 bond before release on Wednesday after she posted bail.
