Well, the article says he's being charged as an accessory to custodial kidnapping, and his defense is that he's "just a landlord".

That leads to one of two scenarios, either he unlocked a door that he shouldn't have to allow the noncustodial parent to abduct the kid(s), or he rents to the noncustodial parent and refused to let the custodial parent retrieve the kid(s).

The second would be a bit of a stretch to get charges of being an accessory to kidnapping. Not unless he helped hide the kid(s) and noncustodial parent. Which is also an option.
