Specifically, I’m referring to this story.
The highlights of the story are:
[ul]
[li]A convicted murderer and a deputy warden’s wife disappeared 11 years ago.[/li][li]They were just discovered living together raising chickens.[/li][li]She claims that she stayed with the killer out of fear for her family.[/li][li]When he was caught, she was back on the chicken farm.[/li][li]At least twice she was able to pick up the phone and make a brief phone call to friends or family.[/li][/ul]
I’m wondering how it is that in ten years, it never occured to the wife of a law-enforcement official to pick up the phone and call 911? I don’t think he could have possibly been watching her every minute of those 10 years, especially since she did manage to call other people at least twice.
Am I foolish for thinking that there is a definite possibility that she was in on this, or is it really possible for her to have been held 10 years as she was?
