29 - 15 = 14 and 29 - 11 = 18

I mean, they might not be, but that has nothing to do with this

These types of stories always amaze me. How could someone not hear her scream/try to escape, or notice something strange about the people who did this?

So news companies can't do simple arithmetic?

And yes, stories like this always baffle me. She was kidnapped and then gave birth to two kids and was living with her kidnapper. Did she never get a chance to escape in 18 years, or alert or call someone?

I guess we can chalk it to another case of Stockholm Syndrome.

^The sad part is that if she has been locked up for that long without going out in public then she has the education of an 11 year old at age 29.

And how did they manage to get the 2 daughters in the system? Maybe they just locked them up too? I guess they could have said they found them on the side of the road and know nothing about them.

^Maybe the kidnappers were really smart and home schooled her. I hope so.

"Witnesses reported that a vehicle with two people drove up to Dugard and abducted her while her stepfather was watching on June 10, 1991.

In media reports at the time, the girl's stepfather said he heard Jaycee scream then jumped on a bicycle and frantically pedaled after the car in a failed effort to follow it up a hill. He then turned around and screamed at neighbors to call 911."


That

Fucking

Sucks

here is a bizarre but expected new twist:

http://edition.cnn.com/2009/CRIME/08/31/california.missing.girl/index.html

the girl/woman was living a normal life with her daughters and the captor and they helped out at the captor's printing business and even attended bday parties.

so they could have escaped anytime.

so you don't believe that the trama and other actions inflicted did nothing to influence the young woman's response over time?

Stockholm Love
Baby you’ve got what you wanted, haven’t you
Now they’re mad at you, in a frenzy cause they envy you,
So they send in all the small men who will call you
Underhanded, pullin band-aids staring down the bell of a double standard
But I understand you like nobody, I’d do for you like you’d do for me

I’ve got the time if you’ve got the patience
I’ve been, kidnapped, hi-jacked, venus flytrapped,
But please don’t let me go,
I’m here, waiting, fading, no use negotiating, Stockholm love!

They’ve got legions and legions of reasons and reasons
To let me walk out that door, but I am your man for all seasons
And the reasons are not my concern,
Either Orson pays the ransom, or I reveal the lies,
Could it be that I don’t want to leave cause I can’t, son
I’ve been hypnotized

I’ve got the time if you’ve got the patience
I’ve been, kidnapped, hi-jacked, venus flytrapped,
But please don’t let me go,
I’m here, waiting, fading, no use negotiating, Stockholm love!

I’ve got the time if you’ve got the patience
I’ve been, kidnapped, hi-jacked, venus flytrapped,
But please don’t let me go,
I’m here, waiting, fading, no use negotiating, Stockholm love!
I’ve been, kidnapped, hi-jacked, venus flytrapped,
But please don’t let me go,
I’m here, waiting, fading, no use negotiating, Stockholm love!

I’ve got the time,
I’ve got the time,
I’ve got the time,
I’ve got the time

I saw somewhere a tv show about this. How if you capture a child young enough, you can scare them so they don't leave right away. Sometimes, as long as the captor cares for the child, they won't leave even if given the opportunity. I mean, the necessities are provided. And most children can't "plan" out how they'll escape. Sure some will probably try and maybe even be successful. But you've got to put yourself in their place, not knowing what you know now. It's hard to be in their place. If the captor says, "I killed your parents, you're living with me now..." Are you really going to testify against that? Sure most captors abuse their victims. For a child, I'm sure that's enough to be scared of. And I'm sure after years of abuse and such, one becomes acustomed to the environment to the point where it's "tollerable", despite how poor it may be.

I remember one specific case where this boy was kidnapped by this old man. It was in reader's digest iirc. He said how he lived in a small apartment with this man, and how he got whatever he wanted (playstation, junk food, w/e) as long as he followed curfew. The man would sexually abuse him now and then, but otherwise, he was a happy kid. He said he missed his parents and wanted to go home to them, but he was afraid to leave because of the consequences. But he always hoped they would find him somehow.
