True Story! 14 Years Old Girl Is Kidnapped and Kept In An Underground Bunker

Goodness, I can't stand the sheriff who took this case, and I feel like he did every single thing wrong. But I have to say that it he didn't take the risk of putting it on the news that she was missing, Vincent would have never saw it and decided to flee. And they would have never found her. I don't know if it was worth the risk of her life. She said when he saw that, he was enraged and she thought she was gonna die.

Me and my cousin were then ran at by two men who were sitting in the park very casually. I remember just because I was always cautioned by my mother, I realized the danger even before they started coming at us and asked my cousin to run as fast as she can and we decided not to look back. We ran and so did the creeps. My cousin tripped, I dragged her so hard that her knees got all wounded. But luckily we managed to reach home and locked every single door. No one believes us... no one. Atlest they don't consider it as horrifying as it really was. It still gives me chills. I'm glad we were safe. Moral of the story: Listen to your parent's advice. Run BEFORE the danger comes too close. Keep your eyes open. Trust your instinct.

Often times there’s mandatory minimums for certain charges, so they have to add all of those mandatory years even if it’s an unrealistic number. It happened recently with that truck driver out west who got in an accident when his brakes failed. He was given an outrageous sentence bc of mandatory minimums and people are fighting to have them ended. Judges have 0 power in sentencing the amount of time when charges have mandatory minimums, as soon as the jury finds you guilty then you’re done, and I don’t think jurors know the mandatory sentence at that time so it doesn’t play a role in their decision making of guilty or innocent (I could be mistaken on that tho)

Really??? 421 years in jail... That's a generational sentence😂

[@tanello2]

this makes me sick to the core, if i would be a cop i would problably burn out on my first year at searching none stop someone who is missing and is confirmed to be still alive somewhere out there, i just cant think of what the family has to go thru every time they go to sleep, while one of their kid is missing.

[@calebd512]

It's probably just the movie but how in the world would the bloodhounds NOT track their scent

[@CheerfulChelsea_]

The "aw, see" @9.29 sick man!

[@Mimi1i1]

421 years is honestly amazing 😍

[@snix7613]

1:11 that is a sick flatscreen for 2006...

[@AamuAurora]

Sheriff Thompson looks eerily familiar 🤔🤭 what a brave and smart young woman. All best for her ❤

[@juxt_aposition9935]

The cops who advised the parents to call the number that the message was sent from are so brain-dead. I'm not a cop but even i know that this would be a danger for Elizabeth.

[@perceblue3976]

It amazes me in many cases such as this that these creeps can have accomplices or people covering up for them.

[@fromearth3286]

Why can't they have accomplices??? When a girl is raped by a man, the entire society, media, boomers, simps all cover up the girl. They can have accomplices nothing wrong in that.😂

[@KaWaIi__KiLlErr]

omg hi love this channel so much!😩🔫

[@jadebirk5957]

Always fight back

[@deadpool467]

3:00 Who lets a young girl walk home in the middle of bumfudge nowhere.

[@arvelous]

Amazing. Thanks

[@strawberryswing4204]

What is it called? please x I want to watch the movie.

[@sanjosepanackel]

Once in Netherlands in Leeuwarden when I was 15 I was once approached by this Arab guy pointing his gun altho it was truly shocking couldn't move for a few seconds at first, coz I wasn't expecting that.. I thoight he wanted money but when he asked me to go in his car I can still remember my legs shaking from fear almost feeling paralysed, by help of God there was a guy who screamed from top floor balcony which gave me few seconds to run away.. it was such horrifying trauma took me almost 4 years to recover.. I really feel bad for this girl

[@Caleb0102]

I remember hearing about this story, I couldn't imagine, I'm just glad she survived.

[@quintenmantez6934]

That kidd was really brave! Respect!

[@Ghoulz-pending]

The sad thing is, there is a movie called “Girl in the basement”… both are true stories of horrible acts and both of their names were Elizabeth in real life.

[@daemposers3026]

It's base of true story , I feel sorry for the young girl she experience termendously sexual harrasment , but she did'nt give , perpetuates that kind of situation instead learn to be a smart and optimistic girl in order to go home with her family ., Thanks film recap.

[@keithfritz1990]

Apparently this was before they started the stranger danger program in local schools.

[@lilymbae386]

I would like to know if those two cops were fired

[@jonathancrone7642]

its good that the police didnt stop looking for madaline and kept on searching other wise she had never been found .

[@anesianna2490]

I just watch a movie recap like this and I began to cry and this makes me start to cry again

[@fahmidaakter2858]

movie name please please

[@WhatismyLine]

Thank you so much for mentioning the real life survivor.

[@sweetsmiles2156]

Makes no sense to sentence someone 421 years why not death. He would have continued his assault being fed my the mother of another of his victims.

[@snsech]

Eh, being imprisoned could be worse than death depending on where you end up. Death is usually quick and painless, whereas you could go through some serious shit in prison. Some of them are really shitty. And I’m not just talking about prisoners, also living conditions And given his sentence, he wouldn’t have gotten out anyway

[@Seek1878]

Well only murder qualifies for the death penalty.

[@Alex-cw1ph]

You can appeal a death sentence. No matter how much time he gets taken off his sentence, he will die in prison before his appeals get to a reasonable level.

[@chittichitti7348]

I didn't understand why Katherine gave him food?

[@aMyst_1]

good recaps

[@yuzuka1915]

When i go out all alone at night i always think someone is following me and i get creeps…

[@satyashaw9543]

Nyc movie and u explained it very well....☺☺

[@Vesperia59]

please do girl in the box its like this but a bit worse

[@pragyasingh2297]

I hope none of us are ever in the situation where we need the top comments but I’m so grateful for the people who put them there ❤

[@amyottefam7532]

What’s this movie called?

[@dsmdsm2186]

I'd rather be shot than go in a bunker.

[@Jessica641]

Reminds me of the movie "Lovely Bones".

[@domjay]

Thank god for that sheriff.

[@stephaniepirtle633]

This kinda seems like Lovely Bones to me

[@lovelycece2383]

Nah fr

[@kavyadave3988]

Now I am scared even going out of home 😭

[@fireinvestigationscar51]

What name is this movie

[@moviesinbrief6436]

Sometimes I wonder what's wrong with such people. It's unimaginable.

[@TexasHoosier3118]

Are the cops really that stupid? Telling that woman that a call had been made could have gotten the girl killed. Better to hide out and spy on the woman.
