IN THIS EPISODE: \\u201cDon\\u2019t take candy from strangers\\u201d - that warning stemmed from a real kidnapping in 1874, made even more history-making by being the first kidnapping in U.S. history to demand money for the child\\u2019s safe return. (The First U.S. Kidnapping For Ransom) *** I\\u2019ll share true kidnapping stories told by the victims \\u2013 stories you\\u2019ve never heard, because none of them made the evening news. (True Stories of Abduction) *** In some kidnapping cases, the victim outsmarts their abductor. We\\u2019ll look at a few quick-thinking abductees whose out-of-the-box thinking and determination to survive helped them to escape their captors. (They Outsmarted Their Kidnappers) *** In some cases of kidnapping, the victims have an opportunity to escape \\u2013 but don\\u2019t. They even try to help those who abducted them in the first place. In many cases this indicates the victim is suffering from a terrifying type of brainwashing we\\u2019ve come to know as Stockholm Syndrome \\u2013 and we\\u2019ll look at a few famous cases of it. (True Cases of Stockholm Syndrome) *** A beautiful California co-ed was kidnapped in 1974 - and two months later, she burst into a bank with a machine gun. We\\u2019ll look at how Stockholm Syndrome changed 19-year-old wealthy heiress Patty Hearst into a cold-blooded bank robber. (The Brainwashing of Patty Hearst) *** (Originally aired September 22, 2020)
