My Chilling Response to My Daughter's Abduction

Summary

My ten-year-old daughter was kidnapped. The kidnappers demanded a $5 million ransom, or they'd kill her.

In the video they sent, my daughter's face was streaked with tears, beaten black and blue, her voice hoarse as she cried for her mommy to save her.

Seeing the video, my mother-in-law was overcome with grief, nearly fainting.

My husband and sister-in-law were practically bouncing off the walls, looking like they wanted to tear the kidnappers limb from limb.

But me, the one who should have been the most frantic – her biological mother – I was strangely calm.
