Plans Gone Wrong: The True Story of a Botched Kidnapping

By Edward Aranda

Michael's life seemed enviable. A successful businessman, a public figure, a man with wealth and influence. But behind closed doors, his marriage had crumbled, and obsession began to take hold.
In August 2017, that obsession turned into a criminal plan. Handley orchestrated a kidnapping plot targeting his estranged wife, a scheme he believed he could control. But plans rarely survive reality. What followed was a chain of missteps, miscalculations, and unforeseen consequences that would leave lives shattered and a criminal case that shocked Louisiana.
Plans Gone Wrong: The True Story of a Botched Kidnapping is the chilling account of a man who thought he could manipulate fear, control outcomes, and escape justice only to discover how quickly a carefully laid scheme can collapse.
For readers of true crime, psychological thrillers, and stories of obsession and downfall, this is a gripping, unforgettable case that proves reality is often stranger than imagination.
