Mindy McCready Recalls The Moment Her Son Was Taken Into Custody By U.S. Marshals

Following her child-welfare hearing earlier this week, Mindy McCready is sitting down with ABC's 20/20 to talk about the accusations that she kidnapped her five-year-old son Zander.

During the interview, the country star currently pregnant with twins, said the following:

“I ... will not ever think that me taking my own child, that I carried for nine months, that I gave birth to in the hospital by myself would ever be breaking the law. What I did was to protect my child, and there’s not a person in the world that’s going to tell me that that is wrong.”

McCready had taken Zander from her mother's Florida home last week (Gayle McCready is Zander's legal guardian), and several days later authorities found the troubled country singer and her son hiding in a closet in Arkansas.

The singer also revealed the moment the U.S. marshals arrived to take her son, Zander. She adds:

“He was screaming: ‘Please don’t touch me, please don’t touch me, please don’t touch my mommy. Please, leave me alone, I want to be with my mommy."

McCready lost custody of Zander in 2007. He is now in foster care.
