At the time of the Amber Alert I said this was probably simply a family problem visited on the public.
I got attacked for it. Turns out I was right
I scanned the article. It seems that for her, trading in her train wreck of a family for a married 50 year old was trading up. That is sad.
The former teacher needs to be punished, she was below the age of consent and he broke the law and betrayed his wife and family. However I fear for the young woman. I hope that she is able to find help and eventually happiness.
