Reply #47: Some are abducted right off the streets,

[dmr]

Or are lured to their demise.

There was a story on one of the TV magazines where a young girl around 13 was lured by her boyfriend's father. He told her that he'd pick her up & take her to a surprise birthday party for the boyfriend. Her own dad had grounded her about something so she decided to sneak out. She met the man at a Dairy Queen, I think.

Another story was a girl who was befriended by another girl at school. They became fast friends. She went to her house one day & never came home. When her family went to their house, they were all gone. They sold her for 300 dollars & were driving her from the Midwest to California. Lucky for her, her brother found her drugged & gagged in back of a car while the guy & the girl that lured her went inside a store. They had a violent battle, but the brother got his sister back.

Liam Neeson has a movie called "Taken", where his daughter & her girlfriend are taken while on a trip somewhere in Europe. They were befriended by a nice looking & kind young guy who invited them to a party or to show them around (I forget). They gave him their address. Instead a couple of big nasty men showed up & violently took them. They were drugged & sold. Liam got her back. But it wasn't easy.

All of this breaks my heart.
