I remember being under 16 and having big crushes on older teachers. I remember once i was sat next to one alone, being helped with something and he rested his head on my shoulder for a few seconds in a "cute" way. I remember being so happy that my crush indicated he liked me. We never ended up alone again. Now, as an adult I realise how completely inappropriate he was. Teenagers will have crushes. The adults should not act on them. Period.
@Edwina Hatcher no. Her mother was abusive and home schooling for the longest time. Her father finally got custody of her after her mother went to jail. And right when she got high shool, she was shy and socially awkward getting bullied. The bastard took advantage of this and groomed her.
@Edwina Hatcher Sadly some kids don't have the right guidance from their parents or right environment to teach her. Your statement alone goes to show you how privileged you were
@Pumper Girls mature a year or two faster, not 16 vs 50. 🤢🤢🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮 50 yo men have erectile dysfunction showing biologically they Do Not belong with young women. Poor girl. She was manipulated.
These comments are worrying. At such an age a girl doesn't know herself and is rather malleable. It was his responsibility as a 50 year old man to not enter into this.
He said he would kill himself and hurt her family if she didn’t go. She told her sister to call police if she wasn’t home by 6. In what world is that willingly going with someone????
Brian Mcclane she's 15 years old.. and I am as well. None of my friends would run off with a 50 year old bloke against their will if he just told them to . No excuse what so ever lol
Ulysses Henderson regardless of the fact that you're completely right, most 15 year Olds wouldn't but by law she is sTIll underage so regardless of going willingly he still took her
I remember having crushes on my teachers as a teen but if one of them had made a move I would have been devasted. Kids have crushes teachers ignore them pedophiles act.
It doesn't matter if she willingly went with him. In the eyes of the law, she is legally a minor. Legally she is not mentally capable of making these decisions. He was the adult in this situation and thus is at fault. If she was 18 and ran away with him then there wouldn't be this big of a manhunt for them because she'd be considered an adult.
@redbull45323 3 years nothing different? How about backward to 12 years old then turned to 15 years is not old enough to decide what is real. 50 years old sociopath mind over power to 15 years old girl is just problem here. Law over 18 is make sense.
His list & his preparations were disgusting with his medication for erectile dysfunction & ky jelly. She looks very young for 15. I feel horrible for her. I hope people will try to understand how pedophiles/hebophiles groom their victims into getting them to trust them. Unfortunately they pick vulnerable children or teens. Maybe a child has 2 loving parents doing the best they can but say they are going through a divorce, and the child unfortunately trusts the wrong person. These predators use whatever they can to get into the world of the child. He even used his family to cover for him making his wife think he was "mentoring" her. And I also feel very sorry for his wife. She is trying to cope with the fact that this man she had trusted with her own teenager daughters, the father of her kids is a predator. You could tell she is struggling admitting slowly that he should not have taken her. She probably has some guilt of her own for not seeing things more clearly, plus, it has to be devastating for a small town southern woman that is raised to let the man be the head of the household that her marriage was a lie, that she no longer has a husband, that her kids have lost their father & more than likely he will be in prison for a long time. I hope people will be kind to her & her children because they are victims too. And they have no blame for what he has done. They are going to need people to support them so they can rebuild their life. I know he has 2 daughters so I feel terrible for them. They pled for him to come home saying that they would still love him. I know they did that for his victim too. To take a minor across state lines is a serious offense. They are trying to hit sex traffickers with hard charges like kidnapping that have heavy prison sentences to make then hesitant to do that. This girl is going to need a lot of support. She did not go willingly. I am so glad she was found. The fact that she told her sister to call someone if she was not home tells me he probably used an excuse or threatened to commit suicide etc. to get her to meet him. He gives me the creeps. And he has done great irreparable harm to his own daughters & wife.
Unfortunately no one is going to understand a word you said. The comment section is filled to the brim with a bunch of victim blaming.

You know what’s more emotionally and mentally scarring, than running away with your 50 year old teacher? Having your face and name plastered on national TV and having everyone you know, know that you ran away with your teacher, and now have to deal with THAT. That’s why I always disliked these shows. Even if people are okay with their names and faces being shown, a lot of people regret it afterwards, and in the cases of an embarrassing runaway with ugly old white dude, they victims should be anonymous 🙄
I've seen too many interviews with grown women who have had similar adults take them away from their families as teens, without being saved. And no, the outcome WASN'T better than being publicized and saved.
Even if she chose to go with him, she was not old enough to make that choice especially sense she went across the country with him, and considering he is not her authority figure, there was not any parent communication about this, he took her to a place without telling anybody, this is considered kidnapping. She was being manipulated by him. If that runaway had been any longer, the outcome of this situation could've been way different. He should be put in jail and charged and Elizabeth should be put home back with her family. That is that.
I agree with you. I honestly hate how some people think that she deserves punishment when everything that happened to her was his fault. Yes, she made the decision to be with him, but he moved things too far. Honestly, some people are disgusting to think that it was okay for her to do this and get punished for it.
@@alexis-ye9xq he literally broke her down and made her believe he was the only person who could protect and love her, he also threatened himself and her family if she didnt go with him. how does any of that make that her fault...??? like be so real.
The only problem is she will be with tht abusive mother and now tht her mother knows tht oh men it'll be worse like she made a big mistake on running with a old guy tbh
well at the moment due to the fact has been traumatized no she can not! She is having crippling panic attacks, she had no food, no running water, and had to survive on wildflowers. she is in the mental hospital. She is not able to function, Her kidnapper would not let her speak free while he had her either.
When I ran away from a bad situation at home to another state as a teen on my own, I was groomed and manipulated by a 48 year old man. I was all alone in a state where I knew no one. I was so convinced he loved me and that I loved him. He tried to cut me off slowly from any friends or family I had left so that I was more and more reliant on him. He would say they were judgmental and wrong and that what we had was special. He was so mentally and verbally abusive. I eventually got away from him and that relationship with the help of people who cared about me. My sister found out about our relationship and that we were going to take a roadtrip together and stopped it a few days before. He was so angry and made me feel terrible for canceling. Looking back I see why my sister sensed danger, but at the time I was so furious with her because I saw nothing wrong at all. Even now though only two or so years later I find myself still struggling with the emotions of that whole thing and wondering if he really did love me or if I'm still just kidding myself and protecting my own mind and heart from the truth. It's so complicated and I feel so stupid and foolish for having it happen at all that I never want to talk to anyone about it cos I still feel like it was my fault as well. I think about him every day still and his words are implanted on my mind. Some days I hate him with all my gut and then other days I wonder if I was wrong to ever leave and that maybe he was right all along and what we had was special. Just admitting that I even still have those thoughts feels so disgusting and wrong. It's so complicated. I feel for the girl in this story. I've been there.
Let's not forget she was also severely abused by her mother. Making her already emotionally vulnerable. Not to mention she is a CHILD. Grooming is a thing. I hope none of you have children.
Wow, he completely ruined his family to live out some fantasy. First as their provider he runs away from his job, next he leaves his family to be with a 15 year old and to follow it up he takes out a loan that’s going to put his family under. That’s insult to injury to put them in debt before he leaves.
I think she needs to get some treatment before returning home. For some young teen to run off with a guy in his 50s. Then that's a teen That's going to need treatment before returning home. She not right in the head! She might run away again or do something stupid. Get that child into some treatment center and fix her head up before returning her home
No she told her that he would kill himself and her family if she didn’t go with him. She didn’t really have a choice. He’s a 50 year old man he can do anything he wants to do to her. He was nice to her at first and he also brain washed her and gave her something to manipulate her and she trusted him a lot.
Mario De La Cruz she'll be getting therapy so no I don't believe so this isn't funny this is disgusting a grown man used her trust in him to manipulate her into an inappropriate relationship with him and it's evil and sad it happens so much and people think it's a joke and think the girl is an idiot it happens to men and women, boys and girls it happened to my little sister and she's grown up and knows better now this shit makes me want to cry, my heart goes out to her and her family
Rahaf Sami You do realize that the law states that because she is underaged, she apparently does not have valid consent right? That's where statutory rape charges come up when age comes into play. Also please realize that manipulation exists. People tend to manipulate others to try and get what they want, even if it means having to do it physically. The law sees individuals as anyone that is lower than the age of consent (depending on the state) as someone who cannot have completely rational decisions which ties into their "consent" being null and void. Given that she is 15, she is jail bait no matter what state here in the US you go to because ages of consent range from 16-18.
I'm shocked that everyone is saying 15 years is old enough and that she is not a victim. Shame on everyone in this comment section, are you guys kidding? She is still a child! She was easily manipulated by a creep telling her everything she wanted to hear. I look back on decisions I made when I was 18 and feel embarrassed I can't even imagine how she will feel in a few years
My skin crawled when she mentioned Cialis and KY Jelly. Yuck!!! I hope this guy gets 40+ years in prison without parole just to make sure he never gets out.
Good, that they've found her, I hope she is okay. Here in Germany a then 13 year old girl (Maria Henselmann) left her home with a man who was 53. They've been seen in Poland, where he left his car and his dog, but she never contacted her mother or sisters, and is missing ever since. That was in May 2013. Update: Maria came home in September 2018, the man, Bernhard Haase, got a 6 year prison sentence. They had met online when she was 12, he groomed her for months, until she agreed to meet him. He pressured her into having sex repeatedly, and when she thought that she was pregnant he suggested leaving the country with her. She was afraid of her mom being angry, so she ran away with him.
No, they caught up with him. They had been living in squallor in Sicily. He's been charged. viraltab.news/far-right-politician-sexually-abused-teenager-108-times/
@@XxowendanxX Sexy? You think the grooming, abduction and sexual abuse of children is sexy? Whatever you tried to achieve with your comment is beyond me. Then again: As someone who obviously isn't even able to grasp the plot and story line of a fairy tale, you might not even know it yourself.
A 15 year old girl cant decided weather or not she wants to go some where with someone but a 10 years old boy can decide he want to be a girl and everyone is fine with that #merica'
One is being their true self. While the other is being manipulated and is associated with someone else who knows about her not being stable. Don’t compare the two. The fact you have some people agreeing with you is just plain sad.
Imagine being his daughter or wife, every thought or memory of him as your father or husband touching you affectionately would make you physically sick and your skin crawl. Thank god the young girl was returned unharmed
She was returned alive is more accurate, unharmed ? why do you think he took plenty of medication for getting and maintaining an erection and KY jelly ?
BiG JuiCe did you see how fat thoese bitches were they were very well fed, roof over their heads, beds, and he didnt decide to dismember them and feed them to a the pigs...about 17 pigs to finish 1 of them in one sitting
@@mike-zv9xj Actually dumbass, there's physical evidence that says that they were too malnourished to even eat solid food when they got rescued. Fuck off asshole :)
I feel bad for the wife. They were high school sweethearts married for 30 something years only to be dumped to the side like this...hope she gets through it, she’s better without him now
Everyone's saying she wasn't kidnapped but he is an ADULT he should know better. A 15 year old, Really? She's a minor he knows that's wrong, he is a teacher of goodness sake. And She obviously needs physiological help, he took advantage of her.
Teachers were doing the name calling and teasing? They should all be fired bc clearly they have no business teaching kids . Elizabeth had a rough home life and Cummings clearly knew that that’s what predators do prey on the weak and vulnerable. The fact that anybody had the nerve to blame the kid and not the grown adult who groomed her over time. It’s in no way her fault and he took advantage. It really disturbs me anyone blames the kid. Sick stuff.
She ran away with him she wasn't kidnapped It was her choice ,and There making these guy like he's a serial killer , The media is just try to make moneys
It's not kidnapping in the sense of "he forced her to come with him", but rather "she is not old enough to consent to leave her life to go with this man that's 3 times her age". Kinda like statutory rape when the underage individual says they consented.
The is a 50 YEAR OLD MAN. He has lived half his life, he has grown children and probably even grandchildren. Whoever thinks a sexual relationship between a 50 YEAR 'OLD MAN' and a 15 year old 'child' (boy or girl) is normal, is totally and completely sick.
I love how the girls family’s attorney says that she has a loving family. BS. Her mom was abusive. That’s why she was an easy target. Shame on her parents and the teacher
After the issue of Trust being broken by her mother, and then the grooming her at school. This child is broken, needs pro-active people around her to show her what’s right and wrong. This cretinous man took advantage of his community, as well as his families trust to abuse this child. He should be locked up for life.
Nora ikr...last time i was kidnapped...i was recorded on Walmart security cam wearing auburn hair dye checking out flat screen TV's and butt lube...LOLZ
I don't really understand, at my 11 years old a man tried to molest me and pushed me to go with him; but for some reason I knew that was wrong. So I don't get how a 15 years old don't know what she is doing. She is not a child, a minor probably, but not a child anymore. Sadly there are people with low self esteem that can be brainwashed so easily. I am glad she is home again with her family !!!!
Everyone needs to keep in mind that teenager's not only lack world experience but literally have underdeveloped brains. That's why teens often make big mistakes and can be impulsive or make ill considered decisions. People are judging this girl as if she has the same reasoning skills as an adult and that it was HIS responsibility as an actual adult to treat her as the child she is.
@@joeclinton9991 "your fault for falling for someoen purposefully luing to you and manipulating you lol" do you know how ridiculous you sound?? "your fault for letting brainwashing get to you as a 15 year old kid lol" be so real, you have ZERO comprehension of the human psyche nor child psyche in general.
LaCieraa Edmond a grown up adult male *should know better*. she's guilty of not having a fully developed brain because she's a teenager, he doesn't have that excuse. she didn't put a gun to his head, he made his choices. gross choices.
Taking a minor across statelines is a legal definition of the word kidnapped, genius, which means he literally kidnapped her even if she willingly went with him. She is a minor, how many times do you need to be told this before it sinks in? Also? Don't be so sure about her wanting to go with him, seeing as she told her sister if she wasn't back by a certain time to call the cops. Seems to me she had no intention of leaving with him, otherwise why would she have said anything?
Yes she fucking did! God what the fuck is WRONG with people who don't know because they haven't fucking experienced! Sorry for my language. I'm just upset because people who haven't experienced this make assumptions when I have experienced something similar like this personnally
I can't get over the fact he bought ladies razors, chocolate and J-Y jelly. I'm throwing up!!! Hope he enjoyed his little trip. He'd better switch the razors to the kind for men where he's going. Did anyone else see this news conference where this "15 year old little girl" sat on her DADDY'S lap during the televised news conference? Something's not right. Was she in special ed?
Michael D oml of course it would be the same, stop thinking all women are treated better than men. You probably feel like that but we also have feminists.. which I'm not but that states a point
Paula, you forgot to mention that Ms Letourneau spent 7.5 years in prison for this "relationship." Her story was INSANELY covered in the 90s. And her now husband, (at 21) filed a court order to have their "no contact" order lifted so they could be together. Their whole lives have been publicized. Y'all need to educate ourselves before posting. I think it would be MORE covered if the teacher was female. That's been the trend in the past.
FROM A SCIENTIFIC VIEWPOINT - she is a young woman..... these rules are created by man, not the creator , we seem to ignore the fact that a 15 year old girl can have sexual feelings
This is ridiculous. They're making her a victim and she isn't. She wanted to go. She pursued him as much as he did. She's no victim and neither is he. It was her freaking choice.
Michelle Nelson Just because she's a child doesn't mean she's a victim. Oh boohoo she was "manipulated" by him. Who the hell lives with their teacher? It's a really dumb situation tbh.
Michelle Nelson He is not a paedophile as that is the attraction to prepubescent children which is younger than 13 which she is not. I’m not supporting this but I feel like when people aren’t teenagers anymore, you tend to forget that we actually have our own mind and we can think for ourselves. Not all of our decisions are from manipulation. Adults can get manipulated too
This was absolutely insane from start to finish. He is the adult. He should have acted like one and put a stop to it before it even had anywhere to go. He definitely should have been arrested and charged with taking a minor across state lines. I tried to look for their Instagram pages so I could take a look at them but couldn’t find them.
i think she didn't want to go, telling her sister if she's not back by a certain time call police? thats a cry for help. he clearly manipulates her, like brain washed. she got herself in too deep in something terrible but didn't know what to do. he had been preparing for it so maybe they talked about it. Like him saying wouldn't it be great it we ran off together and etc, something teenagers often talk about but never actually do. but he was very serious. And she probably was scared to tell anyone cause of her relationship with him for fear of getting in trouble, something many victims feel.
Bruh then why tf she gonna meet up with him for tf she could of just straight up called the cops on his ass not run away with him and I felt the sister was lying tht girl didn't say anything probably and just left to be with a old guy bc I been hearing she fell in love and romantically kissed him at school like why tf would she be scared of him after all tht crap
am I suppose to feel sorry for her? she's 3 years shy of being an adult. His wife knows and she obviously said it she went willingly. Did she trusted him, yes. but I am not too convinced of her innocence. There are children who are like that.
"there are children like that" what? children who dont know how to make a decision like that because scientifically their brains have not developed to that point?? the predators take advantage of that fact, 3 years is 730 days 730x24 hours, so you know how many hours of mayuring that is that she still needs to do, that her brain PHYSICALLY needs to build in order for her to be SOMEWHAT mature enough to make that decision?? no, obviously you do not, seeing as clearly yours didnt ever get to that point.
Every teacher needs to be charged and fired for teasing her.
what charge would dat be...
Lo Flash harassment
Most teachers aren't good people.

She is having crippling panic attacks, she had no food, no running water, and had to survive on wildflowers. she is in the mental hospital. She is not able to function, Her kidnapper would not let her speak free while he had her either.
As her profile suggests, her first words will be "No, leave him alone."
Ho Lee Fuk you are so right but people want to know what happen
Sada Sesshomaru How TF do you know. Were you there? No. She's not a fucking victim, by the looks of it she willingly went with him.
she went from one bad situation to worse
sicko -hope he gets punished
When I ran away from a bad situation at home to another state as a teen on my own, I was groomed and manipulated by a 48 year old man. I was all alone in a state where I knew no one. I was so convinced he loved me and that I loved him. He tried to cut me off slowly from any friends or family I had left so that I was more and more reliant on him. He would say they were judgmental and wrong and that what we had was special. He was so mentally and verbally abusive. I eventually got away from him and that relationship with the help of people who cared about me. My sister found out about our relationship and that we were going to take a roadtrip together and stopped it a few days before. He was so angry and made me feel terrible for canceling. Looking back I see why my sister sensed danger, but at the time I was so furious with her because I saw nothing wrong at all. Even now though only two or so years later I find myself still struggling with the emotions of that whole thing and wondering if he really did love me or if I'm still just kidding myself and protecting my own mind and heart from the truth. It's so complicated and I feel so stupid and foolish for having it happen at all that I never want to talk to anyone about it cos I still feel like it was my fault as well. I think about him every day still and his words are implanted on my mind. Some days I hate him with all my gut and then other days I wonder if I was wrong to ever leave and that maybe he was right all along and what we had was special. Just admitting that I even still have those thoughts feels so disgusting and wrong. It's so complicated. I feel for the girl in this story. I've been there.
Boo hoo. Nobody is going to read your long ass story.
Let's not forget she was also severely abused by her mother. Making her already emotionally vulnerable. Not to mention she is a CHILD. Grooming is a thing. I hope none of you have children.
I hope she gets a lot of help and finally finds true one day when she's ready.
Wow, he completely ruined his family to live out some fantasy. First as their provider he runs away from his job, next he leaves his family to be with a 15 year old and to follow it up he takes out a loan that’s going to put his family under. That’s insult to injury to put them in debt before he leaves.
I think she needs to get some treatment before returning home. For some young teen to run off with a guy in his 50s. Then that's a teen That's going to need treatment before returning home. She not right in the head! She might run away again or do something stupid. Get that child into some treatment center and fix her head up before returning her home
liloboy911808 agreed!
She probably needs therapy for what she's been through but to say she's sick in the head is wrong. She was manipulated by a pedophile.
@@juicebox3839 it turns out she was abused badly at home.
No she told her that he would kill himself and her family if she didn’t go with him. She didn’t really have a choice. He’s a 50 year old man he can do anything he wants to do to her. He was nice to her at first and he also brain washed her and gave her something to manipulate her and she trusted him a lot.
I bet I bet as soon as she is 18 she will go looking for him
Mario De La Cruz He'll be easy to find. Prison.
Mario De La Cruz she'll be getting therapy so no I don't believe so
this isn't funny this is disgusting
a grown man used her trust in him to manipulate her into an inappropriate relationship with him and it's evil and sad
it happens so much and people think it's a joke and think the girl is an idiot
it happens to men and women, boys and girls
it happened to my little sister and she's grown up and knows better now
this shit makes me want to cry, my heart goes out to her and her family
she knows the diferints between good and bad. they both should be punished for what they did
Mario De La Cruz this murica. People hate age gaps in relationships even if its 50 yr old with 25yr old.
Nothing wrong with a large age gap. My grandfather was 48 when he married my grandmother. She was 20.
He ruined every aspect of his life over a silly teenager. SMH...
Sonyag1 thinking with the dick lol
@@annc5442 he was not thinking at all. Certified creep
And he ruined her life
He didn't ruin his life tbh, he opened up his true self to the world, and helped the coppers catch someone too perverted to be around kids.
amazing how foolish older men can be to fall in love with jail bate,even tho he probably treated her better than everyone else
she wasn't kidnapped she ran with him maybe it was her choice
Rahaf Sami you so right
Rahaf Sami I didn't want to say it but yea your right she could have ran at anytime
Rahaf Sami I agree but kids get charged as adults at her age
youre a fucking idiot, she was manipulated by him, you are honestly one of the dumbest people alive
Rahaf Sami You do realize that the law states that because she is underaged, she apparently does not have valid consent right? That's where statutory rape charges come up when age comes into play. Also please realize that manipulation exists. People tend to manipulate others to try and get what they want, even if it means having to do it physically. The law sees individuals as anyone that is lower than the age of consent (depending on the state) as someone who cannot have completely rational decisions which ties into their "consent" being null and void. Given that she is 15, she is jail bait no matter what state here in the US you go to because ages of consent range from 16-18.
I'm shocked that everyone is saying 15 years is old enough and that she is not a victim. Shame on everyone in this comment section, are you guys kidding? She is still a child! She was easily manipulated by a creep telling her everything she wanted to hear. I look back on decisions I made when I was 18 and feel embarrassed I can't even imagine how she will feel in a few years
Many prayers have been answered. So thankful she's been found!
My skin crawled when she mentioned Cialis and KY Jelly. Yuck!!! I hope this guy gets 40+ years in prison without parole just to make sure he never gets out.
Good, that they've found her, I hope she is okay.
Here in Germany a then 13 year old girl (Maria Henselmann) left her home with a man who was 53. They've been seen in Poland, where he left his car and his dog, but she never contacted her mother or sisters, and is missing ever since. That was in May 2013.
Update: Maria came home in September 2018, the man, Bernhard Haase, got a 6 year prison sentence. They had met online when she was 12, he groomed her for months, until she agreed to meet him. He pressured her into having sex repeatedly, and when she thought that she was pregnant he suggested leaving the country with her. She was afraid of her mom being angry, so she ran away with him.
No, they caught up with him. They had been living in squallor in Sicily. He's been charged. viraltab.news/far-right-politician-sexually-abused-teenager-108-times/
That's kind of a sexy version of Hansel and Gretel
@@XxowendanxX Sexy? You think the grooming, abduction and sexual abuse of children is sexy? Whatever you tried to achieve with your comment is beyond me. Then again: As someone who obviously isn't even able to grasp the plot and story line of a fairy tale, you might not even know it yourself.
@@68404 What is "no" about my comment? I wrote it in 2017, Maria came home in September 2018.
I just can't grasp being 40 and having the slightest thought of a freakin teen🤦♀️
A 15 year old girl cant decided weather or not she wants to go some where with someone but a 10 years old boy can decide he want to be a girl and everyone is fine with that #merica'
FRFR
SO TRUE
Exactly what I'm saying!!!! I just saw a 14 year old boy that was with his female teacher and comments were all different
I need to talk with you
One is being their true self. While the other is being manipulated and is associated with someone else who knows about her not being stable. Don’t compare the two. The fact you have some people agreeing with you is just plain sad.
Imagine being his daughter or wife, every thought or memory of him as your father or husband touching you affectionately would make you physically sick and your skin crawl. Thank god the young girl was returned unharmed
She was returned alive is more accurate, unharmed ? why do you think he took plenty of medication for getting and maintaining an erection and KY jelly ?
Age is just a number, just like a jail cell is just another room to rent.
Age is a number, but it also defines how mature you are.
lol
Get a daughter mf mf let me see if u still say tht mf
It's just pure sickness. Just look at thos Cleveland girls kidnapped for 10 years!
BiG JuiCe did you see how fat thoese bitches were they were very well fed, roof over their heads, beds, and he didnt decide to dismember them and feed them to a the pigs...about 17 pigs to finish 1 of them in one sitting
If only Castro let them walk around Walmart with him...
BiG JuiCe don’t disrespect lions like that! GROSS
@@mike-zv9xj Actually dumbass, there's physical evidence that says that they were too malnourished to even eat solid food when they got rescued. Fuck off asshole :)
This just makes you feel all weird and creepy inside...
I feel bad for the wife. They were high school sweethearts married for 30 something years only to be dumped to the side like this...hope she gets through it, she’s better without him now
Everyone's saying she wasn't kidnapped but he is an ADULT he should know better. A 15 year old, Really? She's a minor he knows that's wrong, he is a teacher of goodness sake. And She obviously needs physiological help, he took advantage of her.
Arya when I was 15 I knew pulling that type of shit is your own fucking choice
She will get help. She needs to talk about it and she will get through it. I did and so will she.
Uh that's not a cabin it's a shed.
What is the difference?
the fact that he bought Cialis, lube, and chocolate makes me sick
Teachers were doing the name calling and teasing? They should all be fired bc clearly they have no business teaching kids . Elizabeth had a rough home life and Cummings clearly knew that that’s what predators do prey on the weak and vulnerable. The fact that anybody had the nerve to blame the kid and not the grown adult who groomed her over time. It’s in no way her fault and he took advantage. It really disturbs me anyone blames the kid. Sick stuff.
She ran away with him she wasn't kidnapped It was her choice
,and There making these guy like he's a serial killer ,
The media is just try to make moneys
rose donna no no mjkkl)ok mm
.
She's under age wtf is wrong with u??????????????????????!!!!!!!!
He's gonna have a lot of boyfriends in prison.
They were in St. Louis about 2 weeks ago! We saw them at a Schnucks and called 911. By the time the police got there, they fled!
Vin Vlogger liar
Elizabeth Thomas needs to talk to Elizabeth Smart
It's not kidnapping in the sense of "he forced her to come with him", but rather "she is not old enough to consent to leave her life to go with this man that's 3 times her age". Kinda like statutory rape when the underage individual says they consented.
If she consented is her fault, she has a choice dummy!! Don't give a crap when anyone say... She 15 young lady, not. Kid anymore
Im 11 and watch these allllll the time with my mom and let me tell you,..... they are very educational and I’ve learned so much from them 🦢
GOOD, I'm glad!!
The is a 50 YEAR OLD MAN. He has lived half his life, he has grown children and probably even grandchildren. Whoever thinks a sexual relationship between a 50 YEAR 'OLD MAN' and a 15 year old 'child' (boy or girl) is normal, is totally and completely sick.
I totally agree. He's married.
Luna the Therian - His marital status wasn’t the problem.
I love how the girls family’s attorney says that she has a loving family. BS. Her mom was abusive. That’s why she was an easy target. Shame on her parents and the teacher
Ok not her parents only the fucking mom but tht don't mean go run with ur teacher
she wasnt fuckin kidnapped
Rahshan Rocquemore by law she was Genius
Taylor stapel don't matter her dumbass is still Alive and she's lucky
Taylor stapel By law, she wasn't. She is old enough, by law, to leave her parents. There is a reason they dropped the kidnapping charges. Try again.
+Sammy Jackson ok now go back to your politically correct world
Rahshan Rocquemore okay no one really knows , stop sounding so confident XD
This is so sad. I hope that girl can heal from the abuse and one day have a happy healthy life.
After the issue of Trust being broken by her mother, and then the grooming her at school.
This child is broken, needs pro-active people around her to show her what’s right and wrong.
This cretinous man took advantage of his community, as well as his families trust to abuse this child.
He should be locked up for life.
I think her trauma will erupt over time
the trauma of choosing to escape with an older man? I think she'll get over it
hyacinthos in her mouth
only trauma she has was from her own family and other school mates looking down on her,talking behind her back as she said some called her a whore.
He must have gotten those hickies in his mug shot by magic. She is such a victim.
Nora Rae jealous?
dank jr jealous? just pointing out that she is far from innocent. biologically mature. not sure how that at all equates to jealousy lol
Nora ikr...last time i was kidnapped...i was recorded on Walmart security cam wearing auburn hair dye checking out flat screen TV's and butt lube...LOLZ
Nora Rae I hadn't noticed until I read your comment !!! totally agree!!!
Please people children are children for a reason
Wow! Nancy Grace looks like an old hag.....
Super Dave why does that even matter in this video ?
like an old hag from the 80's, what's with that hair?
Super Dave And I never noticed that ugly bitch had a wonky eye
El Chico del Apartamento 512 Because Nancy Grace is an ugly bitch
If she had done this 3 years later, no one would have given a sh*t
And we’d like to thank Pee Wee’s big adventure for coming out for this interview 2:54
John C I thought the same thing😂😂
Bree Is Mee hahaha the guys def taking his dressing cues from him
I don't really understand, at my 11 years old a man tried to molest me and pushed me to go with him; but for some reason I knew that was wrong. So I don't get how a 15 years old don't know what she is doing. She is not a child, a minor probably, but not a child anymore. Sadly there are people with low self esteem that can be brainwashed so easily. I am glad she is home again with her family !!!!
Shut the hell up! How can you not understand that children can be groomed!! so what if she’s 15
They said this minors full ass name like 38 times lmao
Anyone notice Nancy Graces eye has been taking a vacation West ?
Everyone needs to keep in mind that teenager's not only lack world experience but literally have underdeveloped brains. That's why teens often make big mistakes and can be impulsive or make ill considered decisions. People are judging this girl as if she has the same reasoning skills as an adult and that it was HIS responsibility as an actual adult to treat her as the child she is.
It's her fault to for randomly failing for this sickos words or whatever he did
@@joeclinton9991 "your fault for falling for someoen purposefully luing to you and manipulating you lol" do you know how ridiculous you sound??
"your fault for letting brainwashing get to you as a 15 year old kid lol" be so real, you have ZERO comprehension of the human psyche nor child psyche in general.
Fire that man from being a teacher.
she knew what she was doing don't just blame that man
LaCieraa Edmond a grown up adult male *should know better*. she's guilty of not having a fully developed brain because she's a teenager, he doesn't have that excuse. she didn't put a gun to his head, he made his choices. gross choices.
It doesn't matter what she wanted, he literally kidnapped her because he took a minor across state lines.
Taking a minor across statelines is a legal definition of the word kidnapped, genius, which means he literally kidnapped her even if she willingly went with him. She is a minor, how many times do you need to be told this before it sinks in?
Also? Don't be so sure about her wanting to go with him, seeing as she told her sister if she wasn't back by a certain time to call the cops. Seems to me she had no intention of leaving with him, otherwise why would she have said anything?
LaCieraa Edmond she's under age that shit doesn't matter
Dolphin Comet... 15 year olds are more mature these days than u think... they know what they're doing
Tennessee?....that explains everything!!
Do not name your daughters Elizabeth
Gloria Burgham for real.. I dated an Elizabeth once she was a phycho bitch

She is one of the worst ppl on the planet.

I live in Hermitage Tennessee and today's the day that she comes back
Columbia is 55.8 miles away from where I live like this if you live in Tennessee
Allie Steele
U were probably one of the bullies, now ur all excited for her return lmao
i live 10 miles away from columbia
He shouldn't be arrested for kidnapping, she willingly went,no one made her go,was she tied,handcuffed ?
Interesting point Ruth. Looks like she could've escaped from him easy enough. She had the opportunity. ✌
every inch of every school property should have cameras. this is enough abuse by now. there is no excuse for us not protecting our children.
She wasn't kidnap ABC.
Whitney Pyant when you're under aged it's kidnap
Whitney Pyant No I don't think so either. But it doesn't matter because she's under age.
Brian Mcclane
Bruh you're dumb it's kidnapping no matter how old you are
A L E X I S *** kidnapping plus under age dumb ass that's two charges trust me I know cops run in my family
A L E X I S *** Bruh??? That's dumb lol
she's under age but she definitely didn't get forced. lmao
Mentally abused.
Yes she fucking did! God what the fuck is WRONG with people who don't know because they haven't fucking experienced! Sorry for my language. I'm just upset because people who haven't experienced this make assumptions when I have experienced something similar like this personnally
They got it right later on, but a 55 year old teacher doesn't "run off with" a 15 year old student, its a crime not a romantic elopement
Why would a teacher 👩🏫 kidnap a student 👩🎓 without her consent
Great and successful job to law-enforcement and, for getting the nation involved.
imagine being with someone for 30 years and them not being the type of person you thought they were at all
15 year old girl isnt accountable for their mistakes, but when a 15 kid shoots someone dead, theyre tried as an adult. Amazing world we live in.
Please just edit Nancy Grace out of this, she makes it unwatchable.
Just out of curiosity, I think a century or 2 ago people get married at 15.
You're right. We also had slavery and women could not vote. So just maybe we should leave those practices in the past where they belong. 🤦♀️
Life expectancy was also shorter you were middle aged in your late 30s....
This teacher just gets
creepier and creepier
She's from my town and she spoke out she has a lot of siblings and her dad left and her mom abuses them. So sad
This is really really sad :(
I can't get over the fact he bought ladies razors, chocolate and J-Y jelly. I'm throwing up!!! Hope he enjoyed his little trip. He'd better switch the razors to the kind for men where he's going.
Did anyone else see this news conference where this "15 year old little girl" sat on her DADDY'S lap during the televised news conference? Something's not right. Was she in special ed?
T. J. She needs help from the pelvis
What's wrong with people in Special Ed?
i wonder if the roles were reversed 50 yr old female teacher and 16 yr old male student run off would it be as a big deal
Michael D yes because it is illegal no matter the gender. Blame the men in society that think it is cool to fuck a teacher.
Michael D oml of course it would be the same, stop thinking all women are treated better than men. You probably feel like that but we also have feminists.. which I'm not but that states a point
many times female teachers who got caught with young male student ended up prosecuted. Look on UA-cam
what I meant was the man hunt coverage case they made it sound like she got kidnapped when she went willingly
Paula, you forgot to mention that Ms Letourneau spent 7.5 years in prison for this "relationship." Her story was INSANELY covered in the 90s. And her now husband, (at 21) filed a court order to have their "no contact" order lifted so they could be together. Their whole lives have been publicized. Y'all need to educate ourselves before posting. I think it would be MORE covered if the teacher was female. That's been the trend in the past.
FROM A SCIENTIFIC VIEWPOINT - she is a young woman..... these rules are created by man, not the creator , we seem to ignore the fact that a 15 year old girl can have sexual feelings
Tht don't mean go with a old mf
What do we know at 15 years old? Nothing! Sick Ass. He probably did this before. Is not the first time.
They're everywhere...
Even at schools!WTF!
Nancy Grace is so annoying. She always has to state her opinion as though it's a fact.
In 2016/2017 a teacher has been screaming at me, and his name is Mr. Gates.
What if he was 28 and she was 17
This is ridiculous. They're making her a victim and she isn't. She wanted to go. She pursued him as much as he did. She's no victim and neither is he. It was her freaking choice.
Technically he's not a paedophile
Michelle Nelson Just because she's a child doesn't mean she's a victim. Oh boohoo she was "manipulated" by him. Who the hell lives with their teacher? It's a really dumb situation tbh.
Michelle Nelson He is not a paedophile as that is the attraction to prepubescent children which is younger than 13 which she is not. I’m not supporting this but I feel like when people aren’t teenagers anymore, you tend to forget that we actually have our own mind and we can think for ourselves. Not all of our decisions are from manipulation. Adults can get manipulated too
Norita Carranco u should delete your comment, it's proof how uninformed or how stupid you actually are😕
I bet they had to pull him off of her.
or the other way around
Don't know to many underage girls that dig old dudes. But then again, I don't encourage them.
Physical Cliff and out of her cause he was Cummins-ing
This was absolutely insane from start to finish. He is the adult. He should have acted like one and put a stop to it before it even had anywhere to go. He definitely should have been arrested and charged with taking a minor across state lines. I tried to look for their Instagram pages so I could take a look at them but couldn’t find them.
Thts bc this two are getting hated by a lot of parents and teens and tht girl well she won't have friends no more that's for sure
The teacher's who made of fun of her in school bc he was suspended should have legal action taken out against them. She should tell who they are.
She wanted Him. Her Dad should introduce Her to Belt!
Dixie May that's child abuse…
Dixie May no it's not, it's called discipline.
Princess ZIZI of course it's a little girl saying not to whip your daughter/son. You know nothing
RPG 7 it's child abuse.
Ryan Evans it's not child abuse , you can whip to a point . Trust me, lots of kids get whipped still. Ain't anything new
She could have easily said help me this guys holding me against my will COME ON YOUR IN WALMART BRUUUU
i think she didn't want to go, telling her sister if she's not back by a certain time call police? thats a cry for help. he clearly manipulates her, like brain washed. she got herself in too deep in something terrible but didn't know what to do. he had been preparing for it so maybe they talked about it. Like him saying wouldn't it be great it we ran off together and etc, something teenagers often talk about but never actually do. but he was very serious. And she probably was scared to tell anyone cause of her relationship with him for fear of getting in trouble, something many victims feel.
Bruh then why tf she gonna meet up with him for tf she could of just straight up called the cops on his ass not run away with him and I felt the sister was lying tht girl didn't say anything probably and just left to be with a old guy bc I been hearing she fell in love and romantically kissed him at school like why tf would she be scared of him after all tht crap
She clearly wanted to be with him I think the wrong approach was taken
Great! Thank god she's safe 😊🙏but also what about our black sisters? How are they doing ? Have they been found? ♥️
+The lady Flower great point! I always wish them all the best 💗 Thank you for bringing this up
God bless that child :'(:'(
Unbelievable honestly
Tad Cummins is considered fucking bullshit in this case.
am I suppose to feel sorry for her? she's 3 years shy of being an adult. His wife knows and she obviously said it she went willingly. Did she trusted him, yes. but I am not too convinced of her innocence. There are children who are like that.
"there are children like that" what? children who dont know how to make a decision like that because scientifically their brains have not developed to that point?? the predators take advantage of that fact, 3 years is 730 days 730x24 hours, so you know how many hours of mayuring that is that she still needs to do, that her brain PHYSICALLY needs to build in order for her to be SOMEWHAT mature enough to make that decision??
no, obviously you do not, seeing as clearly yours didnt ever get to that point.
