(KSL TV) Prosecutors say that Brian David Mitchell, the man accused kidnapping Elizabeth Smart, also tried to kidnap her 18-year-old cousin Jessica.
But Jessica's parents say that Mitchell was after another target.
Jessica's father, Steven Wright, says that Mitchell was looking for his younger daughter when he cut a screen on the family's home in July.
The younger daughter is 15 years old and reportedly a favorite playmate of Elizabeth's.
District Attorney David Yocom says that he is aware of the discrepancy -- but that his office only said that Mitchell was looking for "a minor child between 14 and 18."
