I was kidnapped when i was 5. Long story short i ended up escaping and i can remember seeing my parents and my family and how relieved they were. It's not funny but my dad and 4 uncles were able to get to the guy before the cops and they crippled him, he was a giant man so don't feel bad that he never walked again, the courts didn't do their jobs because the guys family was longtime friends with the judges family and he only got 3 months, but he never walked again and never touched another kid. My dad & uncles are still my heroes.

@@Charlie-hv3dh My cousin is a marine biologist, and I watched him through school. He's brilliant, but it was difficult anyway. It's a PhD field, so yes, it does take a long time and a good original research dissertation in order to get your degree. After that, it isn't too hard to get jobs, but that's because relatively few people actually get the degree qualifications in the first place, and there is more need for these scientists than there are qualified scientists to do the work. Like most hard sciences, it takes both natural talent and many years of hard work in order to get that doctorate, and a lot of people who start the process fall away before they finish, and go do something else.

I think that that self-blame is what makes recovery so difficult for so many. The only thing Leah was guilty of was innocent trust of a "dad"... Leah impressed me with her "groundedness", and strength. She's a quiet warrior! Anyway, Cheers!

I'm really happy for Leah and her family that she is safe and sound after such an ordeal! She was so brave and resilient when recording all the details and gathering evidence of the crime to help her case if necessary. Thankfully the predator is death so unable to commit more crimes!

13:50 To see her dad still so broken after all of these years truly saddens me.😔 Daddy’s are our protectors. I hope he realizes that none of this was his fault. The disgustingly sick, demonic predator is where the blame should NEVER shift away from! I’m certain the horrible memories feel like yesterday to this beautiful family. I’m so sorry you all had to endure this. I hate predators.😭😭 I’m just happy she survived & was able to move on with her life successfully.

That’s really shitty to say. As if the ones who have trouble afterwards are bad and should get it together and “raise above it”. Shasta Groene was kidnapped and raped by Joseph Duncan. He also killed her 2 brothers, mother and stepfather. She was found alive in an IHOP after convincing him not to kill her. She was then sent to live with her biological father and stepmom who abused her. She has had a VERY hard life since and as an adult. She’s been arrested, been addicted to drugs and alcohol, had her children taken… and guess what? She is STILL just as admirable as this girl. She is STILL just as brave and a survivor. It’s disgusting for you to say “I like the ones who raise above being kidnapped and raped the best!” Well, fck you. You can’t imagine what something like this can do to someone. Shame on you. There’s much better ways to word your comment but people like you just love putting your damn foot in your mouth, be better.

Such a brave little girl. Not only her, but all of his other victims. Her dad was also such a sweetheart. He was beyond happy to know his daughter was alive.

I'm so happy she made it out of that horrible situation safely and thank God for that deputy. She's the hero of her own story and o hope she has kept in contact with the deputy that drove her outta there.

This series is SO well done. I don’t miss a single one.

What a nightmare for Leah and her family! I can’t imagine what it must be like to learn that your kid is missing! I m happy Leah is safe and has turned into a confident young woman!

I was kidnapped at 15 with another girl my age (my friend) as we were walking in a neighborhood. After 4 or 5 hours and unspeakable acts we were dropped off on the side of the road miles away. He was never caught.

God bless you, Leah! You are amazing and I am so proud of you!

Wow that Dad was running with a mission to get to his daughter. You go DAD!

She’s grown into such a beautiful young lady! I’m so happy you’ve survived this ordeal.

I could not look at its face. Brave Leah you gave me tears of joy ❤❤❤

Don’t leave your children unattended no matter what.

The way she was scared to be found is even more heartbreaking.

Wow!! Such a strong child who has grown to be an even stronger woman. God bless her, her family and the other victims.

Amazing strong little girl. How wonderful to see she is happy and filled her dream. Many blessings to her

i feel so bad for the dad :(((

Wow, such a brave, emotional story, got me tearing up at my desk. Hands down one of my favorite channels here on youtube!

God bless the person who spotted the vehicle and called law enforcement to give the tip!!❤ And God bless the family for being a family that she wanted to get back to, whose love gave her the strength.

Leah was so brave and intelligent, and she's right that criminal should've faced justice and received the very harsh consequences of his actions and not taken the easy way out

Meant eternal hell !! Not he'll

Such a strong young lady! We need to teach all our kids how to deal with difficult situations, especially involving irrational people.

One smart and brave girl.

Leah you are beautiful and obviously strong. I’m so sorry what you and the other girls went through. I think you did everything right at the age of eleven. You have a strong bond with your parents and sister. God Bless you!!❤❤

Only evil can do such a thing to innocent children. My heart breaks for his victims. I hope the children got all the help they needed. Such a traumatic experience will take a lifetime to heal and I hope they’ve all found happiness to this day.

I remember this case because of the second victim Lisa. She was taken from the town I am from. Also, her step father worked with my mother. Her kidnapper left her with a bus ticket to get home. She had to switch buses in New Orleans so she asked someone about what bus. I think she was missing 2 weeks at that point. The sorrow for her did not stop there. About 18 months later her step father was arrested for molestesting Lisa. I never knew what happened with the case against him.

What an extremely bright, smart, brave and courageous little girl at age 11. Amazing!

Poor babies. I'm so sorry that any child has to go through things like that. There shouldn't be monsters like this alive. I don't know why they don't put them away for longer. I'm so glad you're still here with us. I'm so happy you had so much determination and strength. Thank you to everyone in the community that worked to get her back and gave her support
