Meansthat one of the film’s 6,000-plus investors — identified as 51-year-old Fabian Marta, from Chesterfield, Missouri — was arrested by St. Louis police on July 23, and charged with felony child kidnapping. The offense is a class A felony, Newsweek reported, with a possible prison sentence of 10 years to life.

The movie, which opened in theaters on July 4, is a fictionalized take on the work of Tim Ballard, former leader of the anti-trafficking group Operation Underground Railroad. The actor Jim Caviezel stars as Ballard., based in Provo, raised $5 million in a crowdfunding campaign to acquire the film’s distribution rights.
