OCGA § 16-5-40 (a) (a person commits the offense of kidnapping when he abducts another without lawful authority and holds that person against his or her will). “The abduction required by the kidnapping statute need not be accomplished by force — inducement, persuasion or fraud is sufficient to prove abduction.” (Footnote omitted.) Pickett v. State, 271 Ga. App. 250, 252 (1) (609 SE2d 181) (2005) (finding a defendant’s actions in fraudulently inducing a child to get into the defendant’s truck and go with him constituted an abduction within the meaning of the kidnapping statute). The stab wound to Tevin’s thigh and his strangulation constitute bodily injuries sufficient to complete this statutory aggravating circumstance. See Waters v. State, 248 Ga. 355, 368 (11) (283 SE2d 238) (1981) (<HOLDING>). Accordingly, we find that the evidence was
holding that the fatal injury to a murder victim may be considered as satisfying the bodily injury component of the capital felony of kidnapping with bodily injury holding that life sentence imposed for kidnapping with bodily injury of 14yearold victim was not cruel and unusual punishment even though bodily injury was slight given circumstances attendant upon offense holding that it was a double jeopardy violation to convict and sentence for both dui with serious bodily injury and driving without a valid license with serious bodily injury based on an injury to a single victim recognizing that when a defendants negligence causes bodily injury the plaintiff can recover damages for past present and future medical expenses bodily injury and emotional distress holding that attempted burglary is a violent felony under the armed career criminal act because like the enumerated crimes it creates significant risks of bodily injury or confrontation that might result in bodily injury emphasis added
