5 Harrowing Cases Of Kidnapping Victims Who Survived


When law enforcement receives a call about a missing person, the case is always a race against the clock. The most crucial moments in any potential kidnapping investigation happen almost immediately, with each passing hour decreasing the likelihood that a person will be found.

In recent years the public has become increasingly aware of the importance this timeline plays in successfully recovering victims of abduction alive, thanks to emergency systems like the AMBER Alert and representations in popular media such as the television series “The First 48”.

Sadly, there are still cases that fall through the cracks, and when the prime window for investigators to track suspects and gather evidence expires, many of these cases go cold. That doesn’t mean they give up hope, however, as there are always miraculous
stories of kidnapping victims that have beaten the odds, turning up alive weeks, months, or even years later.

Today we wanted to take a look at examples of a few such cases, focusing on victims of abduction who survived terrifying ordeals but were ultimately able to return home to their families.
