HI ( I was first lol)
Ok sounds good
Q: How does the ocean say hello?
A: It waves.
YAY
Ooh that’ll be so cool!
Saying “iT wAs oNlY fOuR daYs” is like saying they only cut off your feet and only ONE of your hands you have your other hand your fine
When did he say that
SADBOYS production he never did, she’s saying that people who told her that
@@bois-se8id its just an example.
SADBOYS production it’s just an example
Would you rather spend four days in an unfamiliar place, or PERMANENTLY lose 3 pretty important body parts. It really isn’t the same. Yes, it would be better if they never went at all, but leaving with all your limbs after a 4 day stay with a stranger is much better than dying
CHILDREN CANNOT AND WILL NEVER BE ABLE TO CONSENT TO ANY ADULT SEXUAL ACTIVITY.
And that’s a fact
@@Shadow-vd7es nice
Period.
Fax
Amen.
Once a creep kidnaps a child, they should NEVER be released from jail.
Afuckinmen
and should be tortured very badly (:
LITERALLY… nobody would change after willingly kidnapping
At a minimum they should never be let out ever.
@@PydroAJ kidnapping doesnt mean rape, torture or any of those things you listed its just taking someone hostage
Those jail times make me sick. 19 days. Kidnapping and violating a CHILD should be at the LEAST like 50 years. Absolutely unforgivable.
It should be death penalty!
@@marissa._ i'm fine with that!
Anyone who would sexually assault a child deserves a painful death
no it should be life in prison
Atleast 20 badgillion years😻😻😻😻
Pedophilia will never 👏🏾 be 👏🏾 a 👏🏾 sexuality 👏🏾.
its sad asf this world is literally legalizing it and making it normal
Amen 🙏
PERIOD
Sometimes on rare scenarios people don’t act on being sexually attracted to kids but like so rare it should not be legal period
Children cannot consent. That isn’t an opinion, it is a FACT.
Who ever told that brave woman,
"4 days?? Thats not that bad!"
Is a rotten and sick person.
I wouldn’t say that. I think they just don’t understand because they haven’t experienced anything like it
They’re probably 12 ur olds that think they can say anything bc “it’s just a word”
I'm a little scared tht they had to suffer much longer and thts why 4 days seems less?
bhavika Kosambia r u saying that bc of longer experiences 4 days seem less?
The majority of kidnapping victims will be dead, by then.
Imagine going through major rape or sexual assault, and people say," It was for only 4 days. It wasnt THAT bad." It doesnt matter how long it is,it is of the trauma that the victim has
Yeah, like when someone says they are wary of dogs because one bit them in the past. A bite/attack can range from moments to a few minutes. Or even a car crash. These events can happen so fast but leave years of trauma to resolve. People drown in 3 feet of water and in 10 feet and so on. Don't discount what has happened to a person.
What kind of people are they??? Man 😔😔
@@YukiSilverFox72 Exactly. The most traumatic experience of my life only lasted about 10 minutes, but it took me almost 10 *years* to start recovering.
-come over and see ‘johnny depp harrrases women online absolute proof’
No like being r3ped once is horrible in itself but over and over for 4 days where you can’t escape and then someone has the audacity to say it wasn’t that bad what the actual hell is wrong is people
“4 days ain’t that bad”
I can’t believe there’s people like that. I bet they would be crying and sobbing from just a couple minutes of what they went through.
Yeah, a lot of the times when ever I think of someone going through a r@p3 then I forget and often times am in disbelief that it could really only last less than ten minutes sometimes, yet the person is still most likely scarred for life.
if I spent 20 minutes in a car being kidnapped I would literally shit myself
@@NekcropIf I spent TWO SECONDS in a car being kiddnapped I’d pee and poop myself
FR the SECOND i am in that car i have passed out from terror😭😭😭
why is no one talking about the fact that the kidnappers got like NO JAIL TIME
It pisses me off too much to even think about it....
It's becuase the cjs look out for their own. Why do you think rich people get like no jail time? They're also rich. Same with rapists.
@@davidela9022 all child molester and rapist, once undeniable proof is given, should have an immediate bullet to the head! Natural selection. Then they can't ever hurt anyone again. And people will be deterred from doing it. People will continue to do this if they know they'll be out of prison in no time.
Strawberry Milkshake in my opinion, that’s the easy way out. I respect your opinion, but pedophiles get treated so poorly in prison (as they should) and I feel like it’s much better for them to have to go through the torture that they put on others.
david Ela I respect your opinion as well my dude(:
For reference to people who say “4 days isn’t that bad”:
Sexual assault can happen in seconds, and that can be a life altering event.
Imagine how much assault can happen in in 4 days, even one.
My trauma happened in 10 minutes. I can't even imagine what it's like to endure even 4 days of torture. My heart is broken, I want to protect all of them :(
LeneChibi I’m so sorry that happened to you!
Ray Of Fucking Sunshine oh my gosh that’s horrible
Exactly, it only takes one moment to ruin a lifetime.

I know this video is old, but as a survivor of kidnap & rape by multiple people (including family members) I have to say I am incredibly proud of what the 2 women have done. My long, multi-year story isn’t public & never covered by the news, so I don’t know what it would be like to deal with the emotional trauma in a public way, but I do know how I dealt with it in a very private, hush-hush environment. My trauma wasn’t recognized, nor was there any justice served. I was shamed as a child if I mentioned anything about what I went through. In fact, in January of this year (2022) did I finally admit to someone what I went through. While I have openly talked about a few things, I’d hid the entire horror from my husband, kids & friends. I appreciate you supporting surviving champions who have been through living hell & came out with a an immeasurable about of strength, grace, empathy & resilience in order to help others understand how to do the same, no matter their story or own experience.
I'm so proud of you for continuing on with your life and for continuing to do so. It's terrible you went through that, and I'm so sorry it all happened. But I'm glad you can open up about it now and heal further. Thank you for living, internet stranger :)
You are so strong and I hope you can live your life freely from now on.
@@icyhot9850 Thank you friendly stranger! There are no words that can ever express how appreciative I am for the kindness, support! Thank you
@@blorblin Thank You so much! After finally opening up about what happened, I definitely noticed a more positive shift within myself & my relationships which is amazing!
Can’t imagine how incredibly difficult that must have been. I hope you are in a better environment and can continue to heal. Sending love your way ❣️
When i was 15 i met a girl online. We started talking and she said something along the lines of "we should meet up in person". I was seriously debating it but decided against it in the end. I don't know if this was a dangerous person or if this really was the girl like she said. If my parents didn't teach me about internet safety i'm pretty sure i would have gone. Knowledge is power.
in 2020 i talked to this boy on playstation messages, (his voice sounded maybe 16) and we never really talked much and when locations were mentioned, he said his actual state but i said a general location (north/south/east/west) and i never even specified in what country either
but then my father found out and i lost all devices up until the middle of 2021
that time alone was filled with the most crippling depression i’ve ever felt, but it was for the best, i guess
My dad once told me even if the person IS who they say they are its not worth risking it because it could cost your life
W parents
Dude I'm surprised I never got catfished or got in any danger after meeting so many girls thru dating apps. I don't do that anymore but yeah you just never know. So many creeps out there
being kidnapped even for an HOUR would be so terrifying.
alizasucks for 5 mins even. These horrible people. Thank goodness these people r alive today to tell their tale, since not a lot of people have survived💔
just a second would be traumatizing
@@c4tm0chi45 kid
@@c4tm0chi45 ehh ur mom is just crazy not a witch
@@c4tm0chi45 can I make a anime about this
only 4 ?! How dare everyone who says that. I saw and interview about a woman being abducted for "only" 8 hours in these 8 hours he tried to drown her 4 times, raped her multiple times, choked her, beat her so all her rips were broken and she had inner bleeding plus multiple fractures..again in "only" 8 hours. Image having to go through this for 4!! days
That would even feel longer. Imagine waiting 10 mins while bored, it feels longer than it should be. More so when you are in a dangerous situation without any guarantee of escape. Every hour would feel like an eternity, it would would be scarring mentally and emotionally. What really sucks after this is you'll never be the same after these kind of incidents.
They were trying to help the person move on, emotionally. Your outrage makes you feel exhilarated, and is predicated on a lack of empathy, ironically.
@@ladymercy5275 what are you on? Invalidating someones trauma isnt going to help them get over it, itll just make them feel worse.
Yeah, 4 days isnt nothing.
Yeah, time means nothing if you're put in a stressful, painful situation. It doesn't matter if it's a few days, or even a few minutes, or even a few SECONDS. In that moment, every single second is horrible, and intensified. Every moment dragged out to seem like it lasts longer. The fear stays with you, changes you. People who told her that to her face clearly don't understand, and they don't care to either.
As a SA survivor, Every minute that things went on, was a minute too long. It’s absurd that someone would say that four days being KIDNAPPED, TORTURED, and ASSAULTED isn’t “that bad”. And it was live streamed? The hell. The ignorance of some people
When I was 13, my best friends older brother, who was a decade older than me, attempted to convince me to sneak out and get in his car via AIM messenger. I almost did. At 13, I thought it was cool that someone older would want to ‘hang out’ with me. When I look back on it, it gives me goosebumps imagining what could’ve happened. I wish I had more knowledge about how to interact with people online. I can’t blame my parents because at that time, the internet was so new.
Thank god you didn't get in that car.
Or maybe he really wanted to hang out🤷♂️

The fact that they were willing to share their stories at all is admirable on its own.

@Alexis telling the story allows one to control the narrative.. they werent in control of what happened to them..but they can control how their story is told.
Yes
@Alexis it was a heartbreaking experiance and they were very hurt in those days eveb months its hard to tell about something that could have hurt them almost to death so its hard to say that relive it in words
So true that they do it is bound to be hard but they did it
In my opinion even one day is terrible and awful..
heck Hours and Minutes are awful
When she said she was tortured for four days I was shocked and horrified. Every second must feel like forever.
Even milliseconds and nanoseconds...

In my opinion, even a few seconds is atrocious
this is the most terrifying video i've watched compared to the nutty putty cave incident. i don't EVER wanna trust strangers. i feel so bad for Alicia too, she got rap*d and tortured, it was terrifying to listen. i learned from this video, i'm never letting go of anyone i know and love.

@@Jappa3 ye I just watched it I was curious, that thing is scary
I haven't been kidnapped, but I have been a victim of brutal abuse, sex trafficking, torture, neglect, and a list of other things. And what I gotta say for those who wanna victim blame and for those who want to minimize or degrade all of us who went through those traumas and traumas of all sorts, walk in our shoes for the amount of years, months, hours, even minutes of the trauma we've faced. People need to be aware of these things and need to be taught how to avoid being in these situations. These girls are heroes in my eyes. They deserve every inch of respect. They are trying to make a difference for this world by talking about what they went through and teaching kids and adults how they can avoid these experiences. These women are brave. They don't just speak for themselves, and they don't just speak for other survivors of kidnapping, but they speak for all of us who went through some serious trauma and are our voices. For that, I thank them very much.
It's amazing how 19 days can seem like nothing to a criminal
but 4 days can seem like a lifetime for a victim
I was just thinking this
i was was kidnapped by my biological father when i was five, only for 24 hours. but, it felt like days

"I didn't know that I wasn't the only 'special one' that grandpa had."
This shot chills down my spine...
Honestly
But what exactly did he mean when he said “special one”
One thing about when you are kidnapped, yeah it may have only been hours, but it may have felt like days, and if has been at least 48-72+ hours, then it seems like the days merge, and the only things you can really think about is death, hope, and the how helpless you are. Its a sad, painful, traumatic experience.
Yup I agree and it’s true. When it happened to me all I could think about was if I would be killed and all I did was pray. Also yea even a couple hours can seem like years and years.
Love how Anthony respects everyone who is on his show no matter their situation or wellbeing

WHAT THE HELL
IKR TF
like i don't understand why people just wanna make people lives worst and just kidnapped them like ugh-
The fact that it was all live streamed is traumatizing yet it was her life savor.
I’m honestly in constant fear of being kidnapped. I side-eye people suspiciously when my gut and intuition says to, I stay away from creeps, I watch true crime to defend myself, and then hearing voices who speak out about educate me. Hope these women are doing okay.
my father has been teaching both me and my brother self defense at the gym
i’m so grateful for him for that, i know not everyone has that
@@EmmaJohnsonShenanigans Great dad. I've been thinking of figuring out some way to make my son join a self-defense thing of some sort, because he's a fragile, very kind and good nature and have Asperger, but with low self confidence I think.. I've been training HEMA (Historical European Martial Arts), and can probably knock out almost anyone if I just have a stick or similar, it get built into muscle memory, and tried to bring him once, but he thought it was scary with the swords, and perhaps too rough for him. Do you have any advice of what made you interested in it?
To all the toxic people who say “only four days” it was four days of hell.
who is even saying four days

As a kidnapping survivor myself. This video was so well done and well handled by Anthony and it felt so nice to watch this and feel less alone in such a scary world. Sometimes I watch back at this video again for the comfort. Thank you Anthony ❤️
I remember being groomed by lots of men when I was 12 (2009) it really is scary. Luckily I didn't meet anyone as they didn't show up and I went with my friend to the cinema so I wasn't alone and another time my mum read the messages and called the police to protect me but they definitely sent extremely explicit messages and showed explicit things on camera as well as asking me to. I feel lucky for never being captured physically but it's still traumatising and I can't imagine the fear these women felt, I'm so happy to see them thriving now.
So many people downplay and blame these women because they don't want to think that something like this could happen to them. We need to stop victim blaming and downplaying the impact of abuse.
I got that a lot in comments from when i was on a tv show talking about abuse from a guy. I to this day never knew how to respond to those comments until now. People at work found the episode and i heard comments like that from them as well. It was even harder in person lol but now i know what to say! Im extremely grateful for this video.
exactly!
Victim blaming and gaslighting is so toxic
People sometimes get on my nerves

“Do not question yourself. Do not judge yourself. Take your time with yourself. You’ve fallen down before and you got back up. That strength is still in you”
Such powerful words to live by. This narrative applies to everyone, abduction survivors or not.
(P.S. for anyone who doesn’t know Alicia said this in the video)
Well said!👍
true thatttttt ....🥰
I never expected a dog to say such things
Avinash Jain I myself am not a dog, but my profile picture is of my dog, though. :-)
Judah Hernandez I was clarifying and trying to make the point that this comment/topic shouldn’t be joked about.
Giant respect to the victims that can tell about the experiences.
When I first started going online, my mom sat me down and drew a diagram with just two circles, one smaller and inside the larger. She said “the smaller circle is the people you can tell everything to, inside the bigger circle is things you tell some people but not others, and outside the circle is people you can’t share anything with.” Then she had me go through and put a dot for where family fell on that scale, friends, and online friends. When I was done she explained the dangers of meeting people online and made sure I was aware that I can’t tell people online anything that could lead them to me. I think that every parent needs to have this conversation with their kid
Why would someone ever say "only four days" like that's fucking disusing .
Right
I agree, she was terrified for her life... she knew the day she was rescued that she was going to die.... don’t down play the trauma she went through by saying “only _ amount of days”... the time period doesn’t matter, it was traumatizing and shouldn’t have happened..... PERIOD

@@MN-ys2pe this is not true for missing kids

I'm so inspired by Alicia and Jan for being strong enough to come out and speak about that in this video. Alicia is honestly working so hard to prevent others from experiencing what she did, because she went through it and no one deserves to go through what these brave women went through. Lots of love to anyone who went through such a thing, you don't deserve it and if you haven't overcome it yet (which is a huge step) then I hope you do.
Kidnapping is one of my biggest fears and it breaks my heart to see how much they suffered, I wasn’t “kidnapped“ but I was often trapped in a room with my abu$!ve boyfriend for many months every day. It makes me feel better that there are other people out there who have experienced it too. But I hate when people say “you have to forgive and forget“,
So, I have to just ignore his touch every time I ever shower, or his glares whenever he sees me?! I hate these people. And “just four days?“ Just. Four. Days. Of. FVCKING. HELL!
Im sorry, LESS THAN A YEAR FOR REPETEDLY RAPING A CHILD?!?!?! I can't even fathom how that judgement could be just in any way.
It's so messed up. I can't even press charges against the man who repeatedly sexually assaulted me as a child because, get this, the statute of limitations is 7 years in my state. Seven years after he stopped he still had complete control over me financially and since I was still a child I wasn't even fully aware that what he had done was wrong.
Crystal Wolcott I am so sorry that you had to go through that. I hope that you were able to get help to deal with that and that you are able to have an absolutely beautiful life from now own.
Rape charges aren’t taken seriously enough and neither are pedo charges... like they should get the death sentence
Welcome to the American justice system
Crystal Wolcott I’m so sorry that happened to you.. I hope you’re in a better place. ♥️
It doesn’t matter if you were kidnapped for an hour, a day, or a year. Being KIDNAPPED is terrifying and horrible.

Hearing this is so disturbing. I hate the feeling, and I can’t see these things too often. Alicia and Jan are so strong.
"it was just 4 days" 4 days and a lifetime of trauma.

Yes it does

I mean, when u compare it to people who hv been kept it captivity for months or longer (like jaycee dugard), then yea. But in no way am i discrediting wat she went thru. Im just saying theres worse out there
EDIT: btw im not referring to the trauma. Im referring to the sentence in commas
4 days is
96 hours
5760 minutes
345 600 seconds
one second is enough to get one punch.
let that sink in before saying it's not big.
thank you for this comment!
Hey is it okay if a put copy and paste? I am going make sure they know I copied and I found it from you I already have the comment made if you wanna see it but it is clear that I found it from you
345600 seconds. each one spent fearing for your life. who ever said or is saying "only 4 days?" needs to be more empathetic.
OML Thats actually true- maybe its actually 5 seconds but, yeah
It can take less then a second to get punched accutally so its even worse, i hope these people who kidnapped them burn in hell
It is so traumatising to think there is at least, AT LEAST 70,000 CHILDREN are missing as we speak💔 They will be in my prayers
You know, this is the second video I watch from this channel (the first one was about the morticians). At first I thought that it would be anoying because Antony seemed to me like someone who would try to make fun of the situation just to keep it "chill". I have been surprised with how sensible and gentle the conversations have been handled so far. Loving it!
He’s going to be released on her birthday. That is horrible.
Yeah ikr

alicias story reminds me of the toy box killer, poor girls, they mustve been going through a lot after these experiences. Being kidnapped is my worst fear ever! My heart goes out to these strong brave survivors.
It’s so incredible to watch these types of videos and see the kidnapping survivors point of view and see how they escaped and what happened to them!
“Just four days? That’s not that bad!”
This is the problem I have with today’s society. No amount of trauma is bad enough. We downplay and compare every incident.
It is so retarded to measure drama with a certain amount of time. Jesus Christ. Agree 100%
AG AZ don’t say the r slur!! It’s ableist
So freaking dismissive. “4 days??? That’s not bad.” If you were held captive in a dungeon, deprived of socialising and sunlight, and then r*p*d against your own will... 4 days will feel like 4 years.
star_fruit Retarded isn’t a bad word so many people saw there a words that people say that are worse
I think 4 days is horrible even an hour could be horrible
the fact these people are allowed out of prison makes me beyond angry and disgusted.

kidnapping is my worst fear. I have so much respect for these people.
edit: thanks for all the likes :))
User damn i hate the world bc of the fact u have to say that
I saw this thing idk how true it is... it says something u fear is probably what killed u in ur previous life... again idk if this is true I just saw it somewhere thought I should point it out
@User yep, but sometimes there may be someone so far gone that they just dont feel it which us scary, thats why a weapon is needed and not just the spray
My worst fear is being trapped in a tiny metal box sealed tight, and I have to escape in like an Hour, or else it will slowly start getting smaller and smaller until my bones break, blood will gush out from every opening and I slowly and painfully become a mangled corpse
If I ever have kids, this will be my biggest fear.
Stupid people: ONly fOUr dAYs
Could be just me but I’m pretty sure any amount of time spent being tortured in a basement is too much time spent being tortured in a basement.
bruhh imagine having to go to sleep 3 times in a row inside a torture basement, not even knowing if you'll wake up 😭
Amen
Exactly I couldn't even imagine an hour of torture. Torture is torture either way and people who think "4 days" isn't bad should learn that so much can happen so easily in such little time
XRYING 5 minutes of torture would break me forever. one minute.
10 minutes or 10 hours. it’s still torture
I love Anthony Padilla's way of interviewing. His videos are always fun and interesting and never biased. Thanks for creating such wonderful content!
These two are so brave and inspirational...I cant even fathom how traumatic these experiences must have been
I've noticed that a lot of other interviewers and documentaries refer to kidnapping survivors as "victims" whereas Anthony refers to them as "Survivors"
Mad respect for you, man

Survivors are some of the bravest people I know. They are survivors. ♥️
I highly admire these survivors for being able to speak about their experiences. I can't even begin to imagine the trauma they must have endured
It must have caused so much trauma, im so proud of them for being so brave, sharing their past and their feelings.
yes it is, must have been trapped in like a prison all year
if this happened to me i probably wouldn't be strong enough to talk about it
Yeah, me too... I don't know how they do it.
@@goldendragon5259 4 days probably would've felt like 4 weeks if you had to go through something like that
This is just so mind blowing to think about. I just cannot imagine. I am constantly trying to teach my kids to be alert and safe as possible but u never know it could be anyone. These women are amazing!!!!
I was groomed online by child predators for four years. They brainwashed me into thinking that they loved me when I was just an object to them. And I felt like I had no way out. I finally got the courage to stop engaging in it, and I was lucky enough to not be in a position where I was forced to continue. Stay safe on the internet.
“4 days?! That’s not that bad!”
4 days of torment = a lifetime of painful memories for her.
Also u don't know it won't be 4 days ur not counting, it seems much longer
@@itsfrance6500 and u wont even know how long it will last
Its useless to say, “u will be free in four days” or something
People are mean, it takes effort to actually care and put yourself in the other person's shoe's that's why most can sympathize at best but not empathize.
Amen sis
Exactly I live a perfectly normal life and it feels like an eternity to me. Imagine for someone who, A: doesn’t know how long they’re gonna be there. B: getting beaten and r*ped all the time. And C: You probably think you’re gonna die so you don’t even try to keep up to date.
Pedophilia is not a sexuality, its a disgusting crime
wait who said it was?

Thank you very much for sharing this video!!! I hope everyone will pay attention, especially those who have children.
Here's a tip: if your a teen and you want to meet an online friend irl, have an adult and/or a group of your friends go with you. If they don't have ill intent then you can introduce them to some people in your life, no harm no fowl, and if they do have ill intent their likely to not do anything if you're not alone.
another tip:be careful wat info u give to strangers online they can use dat against u
I hate that people actually say stuff like “It was only 4 days”. It doesn’t matter if it was a few minutes, a few hours, or a few days, it’s still a very scary and certainly traumatic experience. A lot can happen in a few minutes and she was there for 4 days! These ladies are so strong, I can’t imagine how scary it must have been to be abducted and feel that sense of hopelessness and not knowing what’s going to happen next.
Yeah. Death can happen in a few seconds
Who tf even says that- "only" 4 days- this one of the major reasons why people are afraid of opening up.
So true...i feel when ppl are ignorant they need a taste or wakeup call. Though I don't wish that on anyone.
Ikr they annoy me so much. The worst part about judging someone is that you can never know what they went through. You always tend to imagine in the negative way.
4 days..... do people not know how quick death is? It only takes a moment for people to decide to end your life even when its not your fault.
kidnappers deserve to go to prison AND NOT LEAVE .
And execution. Depending on what they did to that person.
umm no they dont deserve to go to prison
THEY DESERVE TO GET A DEATH SENTENCE
And to rot in hell
@@the.onesamreid yes
Sadly, that is sometimes not the case...
It requieres a lot of courage to talk about things like these in such detail and stay put. I really respect and admire these two brave women for this and for finding the strength to survive and live. ❤️💙
I am so proud of these women for sharing their stories. What a traumatic experience they had to go through. Even an hour being kidnapped could feel like a day. It must be hard for sharing what happened, and I hope these men who had kidnapped you both stay in jail for life and starve. All kidnappers should just go crawl into a hole and stay there forever. Proud of you both for surviving such a horrible time and getting out. So sorry this happened to you both at such young ages, however it is in the past now and I hope kidnapping never happens ❤️ Focus on the future now, live your best life, and try not focus on those traumatic memories that may flash back. Support and love to you guys and again, so proud of you ❤️
Imagine saying: “that’s not that bad” to someone that has been raped, beaten and kidnapped for four days I-
Anonymous bruh are you making this a gender competition, keep that on tiktok my dude
@Anonymous Well yeah obviously, but the VAST majority are men. Plus starting a sentence with "I felt really sorry for these women *but* " doesn't look too favorable for you
@MB i have seen cases of women commiting equal or worse crimes, i am not saying that there aren't horrible men out there that commit terrible acts against women. but there are just as many women commiting terrible act to men and the truth is that the justice system is far less fair to men than it is to women, women often get lesser sentences for the same crimes, and the system has a nasty habit of siding with women no matter the circumstances, with questions like "what did he do to make her mad?" the male version of "what was she wearing?" once again i am not trying to make light of what happened to either of the women in this video or anyone else for that matter, just saying that horrible things happen to both sexes and are commited by both sexes.
@@savannahssuffering we get that this happens to men too, but you're dismissing what happened to her making you apart of the problem
*_KIDNAPPED IS KIDNAPPED MK_*
(sorry I'm just saying that kidnapped is just kidnapped it doesn't matter how many days or the gender or age oof this might look like I'm saying it's good to kidnap but it's just the opposite of that qnq)
For the “only four days” people, remember, a thousand days of evasion is better than one day of captivity. Trust me.
to those people, i would like them to experience what she did just for 1 day since 4 isn't that bad, 1 must be easy for them...and see how not bad it'd going to be for the rest of their lives. obviously i don't really wish something like this to happen to anyone but comments like that are so incredibly ignorant i can't even believe it
@@edelleaa agreed
Preach
Wats evasion )sorry about the speling)
@@craftcorner3312 to evade something means to be free of it, to avoid it. in this context: evasion = freedom
Having these conversations with children is so so so important!
If I was kidnapped, I don't think I could think straight or even bring myself together enough to try and get out of a kidnapping situation. These people are amazing ❤
Wow. The way Anthony speaks to people is so respectful and empathetic. He is so good at what he does
He asks what we all want to know but in a respectful way that leaves them feeling comfortable!
It could be because of the anxiety. I believe my anxiety is partly the reason I am so empathic. Regardless of the reason, Anthony seems like an amazingly kind person❤️
Agreed 100%!
Better than Shane Dawson
I got the same last name than you
Once my therapist said to me. “Trauma might have been a few hours or even a few days, but for trauma survivors it is like a million years long. Your brain keeps repeating that event pretty much everyday and you keep reliving which makes it feel like that”
🤯
So true ❤️
Trauma could also be a few seconds for all that matter. A car accident, an explosion... I've been through a very bad earthquake that damaged my house quite a lot 4 years ago: it lasted less than a minute but I still have ptsd from it
Camila Chávez
That’s basically PTSD
Basically: ADHD
I'm so proud for them for being so brave for sharing their story being kidnaped is hard to share on the internet I can't imagine the stuff they have been through it must have been so hard for them they were so young when it happened.
when i first heard jan's story on stephanie's channel, i felt so terrified and sad and hurt imagining a child going through such thing specially her case was the 'complicated' kind because it's a family friend. i was crying so much at the first encounter of her story. it could have happened to anyone specially with the type of situation she was in. i always go back rewatching this to hear jan tell the story herself. she was so vulnerable at that moment and i would have been so scared as a kid if i was the one in her position. she was so brave for everything she did and no one deserved what she had gone through. jan, you are such an inspiration to young women and female kids. 💛
19 days.
19 DAYS?!
WHAT THE ACTUAL HELL IS WRONG WITH OUR JUSTICE SYSTEM?!
ikr she got more of a punishment than he did
If you payed the wrong taxes on accident you get five years by comparison
we don't have a justice system. we have a legal system. it sucks.
Everything
Its america obv it’s horrible. Only china cares about rape
Could you do a day with sex trafficking victims?
I was sold into sex slavery when I was very little. I'm out now but there's so much misinformation and a lot of us are brushed off and ignored. Not getting the proper help we need after escaping.
Thank you for sharing. We empathize with you, and appreciate your voice. It would be lovely if you could clear up any misinformation to better educate us
whoa Letting you know that you’re probably one of the strongest human being ever. Its so fucked that you and other people have to go through that. I hope you have a blessed day x
I hope you're better now and I'm so sorry you had to endure that, you didn't deserve that
I wish u r doing okay now please take care of yourself
Im sorry that happened to you, and i hope you're doing better now ♥
One thing I've always remembered is to be comfortable with being uncomfortable. For there to be change, you have to get used to being in situations or being a part of conversations that are hard to swallow.
i watched a documentary some time ago about jan's case, and she did not nearly completely the full story here. a horrendous case from start to finish. my deepest sympathies to both of these women, and i hope the both of them have been able to recover from their traumas
If someone told me “Just 4 days?” I would have responded with “Well, how many days have you spent in a strangers basement getting tortured and sexually assaulted?”
I know right??? Like, excuse me, have you gone through the situation? No, you haven't, so stop pretending like it's no big deal. People can be such idiots.
Say “rape” for some reason “sexual assault” makes people not take it seriously.
Sirama
This. I despise when people label something like forcing a peck on someone’s lips as sexual assault. Was it not good to do? Yes. But was it sexual assault? Absolutely fucking not. It gets downplayed so damn much that talking about rape even sounds like a joke. People literally use rape as a joke these days, like “don’t turn around or i’ll rape u”. I can’t take it, it’s so fucking insensitive.
Right? 4 days must seem like a lifetime, when you don’t know if you are going to live or die. Being terrified for every single second of that time must really mess with your head.
Seriously!? Could you imagine someone just torturing you for even an hour?
it especially is horrible when you trust someone and then they kidnap you
Sleep over
Shadow Moon Bruh..... just nah fam. 😐.....
Yes😟
Y’a Imagine if was someone that you trust the most
terrifying i swear
@@shadowmoon5775 omg being kidnapped at a sleep over is my worst nightmare
The survivors are so brave to say something it makes me sad that this happened to them.
She is very right about it happening a lot within homes and people avoiding talking about it is very true, thanks for telling us your stories ladies, very strong 🥰
They actually made a Netflix documentary about Jan’s story called “Abducted in Plain Sight”. It explores her case much deeper and is honestly so sickening. I cannot imagine the trauma she must still live with...
I thought I recognised her story. wasn't there a whole thing about her kidnapper also romantically and sexually manipulating her parents so they allowed him to abuse her more.
I'm sorry I gotta be that girl! I have it pulled up on my screen rn, and it's "Abducted in Plain Sight" although I guess perhaps it translates differently in other languages? Regardless, if you start searching Jan Broberg, it'll come up in the results so you can find it that way. 😊
s0lastsummer7 Oops sorry it is actually “Abducted in plain sight”. Thanks for the correction💖
TheBananaCat Absolutely agree! I’m sure she has forgiven her parents for everything and in the end it definitely is the perpetrator’s fault. But I cannot get over the fact that her parents were so passive in the whole situation, due to their own emotional dilemmas, that they failed to protect their own daughter from that sicko. They even allowed him to share a bed with her!
Yeah I saw that
Pedophilia is not a sexuality. Minors cannot give anyone consent, it's not just unlawful it's totally disgusting that people look at kids and have these thoughts.
EDIT: Ya so I don't wanna 'exterminate' them from the society or whatever. If they can get help well and good, we all can move on with our lives peacefully but if they can't they are sex offenders BECAUSE CHILDREN CAN'T CONSENT. No matter what the sexuality is, intercourse without consent is a crime.
They're trying to be a part of LGBTQA+ and we will never claim them
@@boboqtvv9135 discussing and getting help is fine... but things this and rapes are what make them dangerous. You are right this should be talked about, they need to he understood as well before they become dangerous.
They are disgusting. We will never allow them in.
Boboqt Vv the feelings of being sexually attracted to a child, while still disturbing, aren’t inherently illegal. its if that person then decides to act upon these feelings where it’s a problem.
We are never letting them be a part of the community.
First time viewer, new subscriber. Great content Anthony! Keep up the awesome work!
torture can make even an hour feel like an eternity, just imagine yourself being tortured for an hour, I cant imagine how she felt during those 4 days.
That one girl, not only was she kidnapped, but tortured. I can imagine how much that destroyed her. Mentally and physically. Thank god for that man who recognized her. Who tf would respond with “ONLY 4 DAYS?!” someone was tortured and almost killed. And THAT is your response?!
StrawberryCowCharlotte wait who said “only four days”
@@anonymousmoose193 some random person said that to her. Idk how someone can be okay with saying that.
they forget she was literally 13
EXACTLY
Who tf is that dubm like omfg it was probably the worst four days of her life like i cant imagine how hard that was i feel so bad omg
can’t even begin to imagine the trauma they have to endure.
Its probably the adrenaline sadly sometime its not enough
jk lol
Petition to keep them in jail
✋🏼
I watched a documentary about Jan's case. That man spent years manipulating, blackmailing, and brainwashing the entire family, including Jan's parents, all to get to and have access to Jan. It was sick.
She's so brave. The mental recalibration you would have to do to recover... I can't fathom the strength.
the fact the man is going to be released on the girl's BIRTHDAY is horrible. You'll never look at your birthday the same.
😡
THE JUSTICE SYSTEM IS S*$& (I don’t usually swear but this is a serious topic)
He's back in jail.
Filth like that should be purged from society. Call me an edgelord. They just re-offend. Nobody worth "rehabilitating" would ever do that to another human being.
@@lilscenechick1995 exactly. sadists like him don't deserve a life, they are only a danger to others
4 days. 4 straight days. That is a LONG ass time. 4 days is 96 hours. 96 hours is 5760 minutes. 5760 minutes without love, a family, pain.
And she was a *child*
I'm sure every minute felt like an hour. Every second passing by, and it feels like you're never going to go home. And to ever blame these people for what they had to go through is disgusting. These woman are strong, and empowering, and brilliant. Never downplay a persons suffering, ever.
this comment deserves more likes.
Exactly, EXACTLY. She had no idea she was going to be saved. She thought she had more time before her own murder, but she thought that time was going to be spent being tormented and raped indefinitely. The strength and courage that young girl showed.... to fight strategically for more time, knowing that time would be the worst time of her life.... wow. Powerful.
I remember watching an interview with a guy who was kidnapped for "only" 40 hours here on youtube and I remember seeing some salty comment about how that's not even 2 full days and the guy's a pussy, because I guess man aren't supposed to get hurt by this? Seriously, the length of it or their gender shouldn't invalidate anyone's trauma.
also, she didn’t know how long she would be there and that just is worse
@@Ax00xL I agree. A lot of times, men have their emotions invalidated because of their gender. I feel like it's way too often that men who are sexual assault survivors or just assault survivors in general feel like they aren't allowed to be upset about it because "men are supposed to be strong" or even worse "emotions are for women!"
i remember watching a documentary on jan's story a while ago and it will ALWAYS stick with me. honestly all of these stories will.
These woman are so strong I’m so glad they survived to teach us the importance of being safe on the internet they deserve so much
