Talk about an adjustment period needed. :shock:

The kidnapper killed himself by jumping in front of a suburban train.

crazy!

Its been on the news a lot here, but it does shock me, everytime I hear about it, my  2 walk to school, sometimes.

seen it on the news the other day.

Didnt know he had killed himself though. There was some DNA test she was gonna take or somat to prove who she was

really weird that he treated her well and educated her IIRC

We dont know how well she was treated, tho she got some sort of education. She could be a basketcase who was raped repeatedly, who knows. :? I wonder what finally made her run--what broke the power of the Stockhom Syndrome?

we dont know she had the syndrome, but we do know she was well treated

She had alledgedly tried several times before and Stockholm syndrome doesnt always manifest itself identically.
