She pleaded guilty to the charge in November.Prosecutors said the boy's father, who had custody, went to pick him up at Ferguson's home near Camdenton in August 2018 but no one was home. Ferguson sent him text messages the boy was safe but would not say where they were.The child was located in January 2019 at a home in rural LaClede County.Court documents said Ferguson's boyfriend, Woodrow Ziegler, nailed the door of the attic crawl space shut and hid in under carpet and furniture. The boy was not kept in the crawl space all the time. Surveillance video showed him several times with his mother but she managed to elude capture, authorities said.Officers from the U.S. Marshal's service and Laclede County found the boy after receiving a tip about his whereabouts.Ziegler was charged with hindering the prosecution of a felony and his case was later transferred to circuit court, according to online records. The status of that case was not immediately clear Thursday.
