Reposted from They Did What?!, which you can find now or very soon at: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://podcastica.com/podcast/they-did-what⁠⁠⁠⁠ — In this episode, Kelsey and Gen discuss the Netflix 2026 documentary Kidnapped: Elizabeth Smart that revisits the 2002 abduction of Elizabeth Smart from her home in Salt Lake City and the nine months she spent in captivity before being recovered alive. Drawing on Elizabeth's accounts, new interviews, news coverage from the time, and law-enforcement records, the documentary examines how the case quickly became a national media story and how early assumptions shaped both public perception and investigative priorities.  Kidnapped: Elizabeth Smart details a series of misjudgments by law enforcement and focuses on the efforts and experiences of Elizabeth's family, who continued to push the search forward when progress stalled. Rather than retelling the crime itself, the documentary examines how the case was handled, how it was reported, and how those choices affected both the investigation and the public response.   Next up: We're covering The Devil is Busy, streaming on HBO Max.

Cal & Liam are back with one of the final three brand new Static Shock reviews remaining and this week is an important one to the series, despite it being the penultimate episode of the run. Static's secret identity is exposed to a villain with her sights on world domination and leverages that knowledge and threatening Virgil's family to have him help obtain technology that will give her the power to reach her goals! Listen as the hosts discuss the plot that involves Static going bad and fighting Gear to protect Mr. Hawkins and whether or not Static's choice to help the villain is properly addressed. They also discuss the computer/brain plug as a villain's plan for domination, the visuals and animation that leave something to be desired, an odd musical accompaniment to a pivotal scene and a fantastic voice cast. All of this and more, plus the hosts preview next week's all new debuting episode format and more on this all-new edition of the DCAU Review!

PART III AVAILABLE NOW, AD-FREE, ON PATREON!This week we're revisiting one of the wildest and most disturbing cases we've ever covered: the abductions of Jan Broberg. This re-release is part two of our three-part investigative series exploring the disturbing patterns shared between the stories of Sally Horner, Jan Broberg, and the character known as "Lolita" or "Dolly" in the infamous novel Lolita.Make sure to check out last week's episode first, TSFU Ep. 187 - KIDNAPPED: Sally Horner & The Real Story Behind Lolita (Part I), where Ash told the story of Sally Horner, the real child whose 1948 kidnapping would later echo inside Nabokov's controversial novel. In the final installment of this series, we'll put all three stories side by side and expose the shared blueprint of authority, grooming, isolation, social camouflage, narrative control, and public misunderstanding that links them.Originally released in 2022, this episode dives into the case made famous by Netflix's documentary Abducted in Plain Sight. Ash told Cam about how trusted family friend Robert Berchtold groomed not just Jan, but her entire family... before abducting her at ages 12 and 14.The deeper you look, the more unbelievable it gets: secret affairs with both of Jan's parents, manipulation of an entire community, and a predator who managed to convince nearly everyone around him that he should be trusted. Berchtold had been abusing young girls since he was a child himself, and the adults around him repeatedly enabled it.TW: For everything mentioned above... this is an upsetting topic that I found very difficult to research, make sure to take care of yourselves

High drama takes place even among the tiny, almost unnoticeable creatures in even the most remote parts of the world. In the frigid waters of Antarctica there's a tiny plankton that kidnaps even tinier chemists for its protection.The tiny shrimp‑like plankton are not much larger than a grain of rice. They spend their days foraging the cold waters for food and hopefully not running into any plankton‑eating fish. The tiny creature has absolutely no defenses of its own. But this creature is not a shrimp without a plan. As it searches about, it may find an even smaller snail‑like pteropod. If it finds one, it will fasten the pteropod to its back, not harming it at all.The pteropod makes a chemical that fish hate. Plankton‑eating fish that have tried to eat one of the shrimp‑like creatures with its chemist backpack have been seen to shake their heads violently and spit the pair out. But the shrimp's captive backpack slows down his foraging for food. So after several days, the shrimp releases the pteropod unharmed, to search for more food and, hopefully soon, another pteropod.It sounds rather silly to suggest that one day, many years ago, one of these tiny plankton noticed that fish never ate pteropods because of the chemical defense they produce. Who would suggest that once he told his friends, all the shrimp‑like plankton started kidnapping pteropods? This strategy was obviously taught to the plankton by the Creator Himself.Job 35:10-11"But none saith, Where is God my maker, who giveth songs in the night; Who teacheth us more than the beasts of the earth, and maketh us wiser than the fowls of heaven?"Prayer: Dear Lord, there is nothing that You have made that You do not care about. Fill me with the same love and concern for what You have created. Help me to love my fellow human beings as you do. Amen.REF.: Amato, Ivan. Kidnapped plankton shares its defenses.

Patrick Champion grew up in Florida in what most people would consider a good family, but as a teenager he began getting into trouble, running away from home, and pushing boundaries his parents didn't know how to handle. Eventually they made a decision that would change the course of his life forever. In the middle of the night, Patrick was kidnapped from his home and transported to Tranquility Bay in Jamaica, one of the most controversial programs tied to the troubled teen industry. What was supposed to be discipline quickly turned into something much darker. Patrick spent nearly a year inside the program where he says he experienced abuse, neglect, extreme punishments, and psychological control while being cut off from the outside world. The experience left deep scars that followed him long after he returned home. In this episode of Locked In with Ian Bick, Patrick shares what really happened inside Tranquility Bay, how that experience derailed his life, led him into addiction and crime, and eventually resulted in a 10-year prison sentence in Florida. _____________________________________________ #ianbick #lockedinpodcast #tranquilitybay #troubledteenindustry #prisonstory #truecrimepodcast #kidnappedteen #prisonsurvival _____________________________________________ Connect with Patrick Champion: Instagram: @championfamily2020 YouTube: @UrFriendlyFelon Tiktok: @lastnamechampionnn _____________________________________________ Hosted, Executive Produced & Edited By Ian Bick: https://www.instagram.com/ian_bick/?hl=en https://ianbick.com/ _____________________________________________ Shop Locked In Merch: http://www.ianbick.com/shop _____________________________________________ Timestamps: 00:00 Kidnapped in the Middle of the Night 03:01 Childhood Trauma and Family Turmoil 08:00 Growing Up in a Broken Home 13:00 School Trouble and Behavior Issues 19:00 My Reckless Teenage Years 26:59 Running Away and Living with My Dad 34:00 The Plan to Send Me Away 38:38 How I Got Sent to Tranquility Bay in Jamaica 45:11 Arriving at Tranquility Bay Teen Program 51:00 Surviving Tranquility Bay and the Troubled Teen Industry 01:03:00 Trying to Work the Program and Planning Escape 01:13:00 Restraints, Isolation, and Punishment 01:23:00 Losing Hope Inside Tranquility Bay 01:27:00 Returning Home After the Program 01:32:00 The Downward Spiral to Prison 01:41:00 Prison vs Tranquility Bay: What Was Worse? 01:51:00 Rebuilding Life After Prison 01:57:00 Recovery, Support, and Healing 02:00:00 Moving Forward and Helping Others Learn more about your ad choices.

This podcast features a review of the first book in a trilogy by Canadian author Marsha Forchuk Skrypuch titled Kidnapped from Ukraine. The trilogy brings to light the horrific human impact of Vladimir Putin's full-scale invasion of Ukraine, which began on February 24, 2022. His first invasion occurred in 2014 when he took Crimea and portions of Eastern Ukraine.Skrypuch's trilogy portrays the lived experience of Russia's assault on Mariupol through the story of 12‑year‑old twins Rada and Dariia Popkova, and how this invasion turned their lives upside down when the first bombs fell on Mariupol. In her review, Myra Junyk discusses the book's portrayal of the collapse of civilian life, the separation of families, and the documented abduction and “re‑education” of Ukrainian children in russian filtration campsKidnapped from Ukraine: Under Attack is the first in the series and tells the story of Dariia and her mother, who are out shopping when their apartment is bombed. In the ensuing chaos, they are separated from Rada and the twins' father, and Dariia ends up abducted and "adopted" by a russian family. Grounded in real events and supported by an Author's Note and historical Q&A, the novel offers younger and adult readers a clear, accessible account of the real-life difficulties and dangers of civilians caught up in this unprovoked war. Reviewed by Myra Junyk for Nash Holos Ukrainian Roots Radio.Full transcript here.Book here. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Phyllis Summers, portrayed by Michelle Stafford, reaches a boiling point, showcasing a side of her that fans are eager to see.  Y&R spoilers reveal that Sally Spectra (Courtney Hope) has a heartfelt conversation with Billy Abbott (Jason Thompson) about her past, stirring up emotions for both.

In the midst of all this, Claire Grace Newman (Hayley Erin) and Kyle Abbott (Michael Mealor) speculate over Audra's intentions, while Sharon Newman (Sharon Case) confronts Daniel Romalotti (Michael Graziadei) about his relationship with Tessa Porter (Cait Fairbanks).

Click to Subscribe: https://bit.ly/Youtube-Subscribe-SoapDirt Days of our Lives spoilers await the unraveling of the Salem Police Department's investigation into the alleged kidnapping of Stephanie Johnson (Abigail Klein) by Jeremy Horton (Trevor Donovan). However, Rafe Hernandez (Galen Gering) postulates that both Jeremy and Stephanie might be victims, as they have mysteriously vanished without a trace.  DOOL spoilers suggest a twist of events as viewers suspect the actual kidnapper to be Owen Kent (Brandon Beemer), Stephanie's obsessive past lover. The situation becomes murkier as Jeremy's absence from school on the day of Stephanie's kidnapping leads to more suspicions. However, the theory that Owen might have abducted Jeremy before Stephanie gains ground as it perfectly aligns with Owen's scheme to frame Jeremy, punish him and have Stephanie all to himself.  Spoilers for Days of our Lives suggest the history of Stephanie's toxic relationship with Jeremy and her harrowing experience with Owen adds a layer of complexity to the unfolding drama. As Marlena Evans (Deidre Hall) becomes the voice of reason, questioning the likelihood of Jeremy's involvement in the kidnapping, viewers eagerly wait for the truth to emerge. Will Owen's mask finally fall off revealing his true identity, or will Jeremy and Stephanie remain at the mercy of their captor?  The Soap Dirt podcast made the Top 100 List for Apple Podcast's Entertainment News Category.

In March of 2015, Denise Huskins was kidnapped, drugged, sexually assaulted, and held for 48 hours. When she was released, police called it a hoax and demanded that she apologize for wasting resources. The media dubbed it the "Gone Girl" case and death threats started flooding in. Except it wasn't a hoax at all. It was a Harvard-educated serial rapist named Matthew Muller who'd been terrorizing California for years. In this episode, we'll go through the kidnapping, the police misconduct that revictimized the survivors, Detective Misty Carausu's brilliant investigative work that finally caught Muller, and how Denise and Aaron turned trauma into national advocacy.

The brazen kidnapping of 14-year-old Elizabeth Smart from her bedroom captivated the nation. And when their main suspect died in custody, police feared they'd never learn her fate. But Elizabeth was still alive, being held in the woods, and facing daily abuse at the hands of her captors. Though investigators thought of it as a cold case, the Smart family continued their search. And a clue from Elizabeth's younger sister about the kidnapper's identity led to her dramatic rescue and emotional family reunion. In the Netflix documentary film “Kidnapped: Elizabeth Smart,” we hear from Elizabeth herself about her nine month ordeal, as well as from loved ones and investigators who worked to bring her home.

In tonight's livestream, retired NYPD Sergeant Bill Cannon and the Police Off The Cuff team break down the latest explosive developments in the kidnapping of 84-year-old Nancy Guthrie. We examine what law enforcement revealed at today's press conference, the approaching ransom deadline, and whether investigators are working on West Coast time. We'll analyze the confirmed evidence—signs of forced entry, blood discovered near the doorway, and the chilling ransom communication—versus the growing rumors surrounding family members, including scrutiny of son-in-law Tomasso Cioni. What is verified? What remains speculation? And what are detectives likely doing right now behind the scenes? From hostage-negotiation strategy to behavioral red flags, we approach this case through a real police lens: motive, opportunity, and forensic truth. Could this be a targeted abduction, an inside job, or something even darker? We'll also discuss how families are coached to communicate with kidnappers and what that final deadline really means for investigators. This is a developing story—raw, emotional, and high stakes.
