Runaway bride found in New Mexico, fabricated kidnap story, police say
By Anna Macias Aguayo
The Associated Press
ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. — It was supposed to be Jennifer Wilbanks' wedding day — an elaborate affair in suburban Georgia with 600 invited guests and 14 bridesmaids and 14 groomsmen.
Instead, the bride-to-be was sobbing into a pay phone outside an Albuquerque 7-Eleven, alone and broke, as she concocted a story about kidnappers and a blue van. She later admitted that pre-wedding jitters led her to leave home without her keys and wallet, creating a mystery that left her family in anguish for days.
Wilbanks, 32, was picked up by police after a cross-country bus trip that took her through Las Vegas to Albuquerque, where she eventually admitted her disappearance was voluntary.
She was "scared and concerned about her impending marriage and decided she needed some time alone," Albuquerque Police Chief Ray Schultz said Saturday.
Police said there would be no criminal charges, although more than 100 officers led a search that involved several hundred volunteers, including many wedding guests and members of the bridal party.
"She's obviously very concerned about the stress that she's been through, the stress that's been placed on her family," Schultz said. "She is very upset."
Wilbanks, wearing a blue blazer and a pink striped blanket that completely covered her head, arrived at Albuquerque's main airport Saturday afternoon escorted by about 10 police officers to catch a flight back to Atlanta.
A throng of cameras and reporters shouted questions, but she did not respond, keeping her head down and moving briskly through a security checkpoint.
Bill Elwell, an FBI spokesman in Albuquerque, said Wilbanks apparently decided to flee shortly after purportedly leaving for her jog Tuesday without her keys or wallet.
"Based on the information we received, it was a spur of the moment situation," he said.

Give it a rest, hon.
He doesn't know where you are, does he?
I'll call him in the morning, okay?
I ran into Gordon in town today.

He didn't have anybody to spend Christmas Eve with.
