A Republican exploratory candidate for state Senate was booked into Maricopa County jail in early August on suspicion of helping a mother take her six-year-old son from the custody of Child Protective Services during a supervised visit in Tucson.

Crystal Nuttle of Glendale, 55, who filed her committee for Legislative District 29 near the end of April, was arrested along with Paula Flowe, 56, and Teketa Riley, 37, the mother of the six-year-old boy.
