Transport from the abduction site to a confinement site might take only a few minutes, a few hours or it can take several days. The longer it takes, the more time the abductors have to calm down and begin to review the precautions they have taken and go over any kind of checklist. Have they forgotten anything? The hostage can expect to be repeatedly warned to remain concealed and be quiet or be killed. The hostage can expect this warning to be repeated prior to the vehicle approaching any sort of enforcement checkpoint or enforcement vehicle, when in heavy civilian vehicle traffic or when pedestrians are in close proximity, as those are the times there is a danger the hostage may be seen or heard. The hostage can expect to hear nervous chatter or even celebration among his captors at this point as they begin to realize they have successfully taken a person hostage—they have their prize. The hostage will likely be blindfolded very soon after the abduction so that he can’t identify any of the abductors or any landmarks that might give him an idea of where he is headed and might eventually be confined. If a hostage can’t identify his abductors and …show more content…
These villages would be a logical first stop by local authorities to question occupants and carry out a house-to-house search. It is more likely that a rurally abducted hostage would be driven a long distance to a more secure location and not likely back into a large city. If you are blindfolded or have a bag over your head, you might still be able to determine which direction you are travelling. If all you can see is sunlight, and it is late afternoon or sundown, if the sun is coming in through the left side of the vehicle, you are travelling north; if the sun is coming in through the right side of the vehicle, you are travelling south. If it is early in the day, the sun will be coming up in the east,
Adapting to life after being held hostage or kidnapped can be just as difficult as abruptly leaving it. According to the American
The first case that I looked at was one of the most famous cases of Stockholm syndrome. Patty Hearst was kidnapped on February 4, 1974 from the apartment she shared with her boyfriend Stephen Weed. The kidnappers were Donald DeFreeze, Bill Harris, Emily Harris and Willie Wolfe. This was a well-planned combat exercise

The author Allen S. Keller, M.D., is the director of the Bellevue Hospital Center and belongs to the member’s advisory council on human rights. (p.558) He is well known for his advocacy on the various use of torture tactics used on Iraqi prisoners and other refuges. During a Congressional meeting Mr. Keller stated "To think that abusive methods, including the enhanced interrogation techniques [in which Keller included waterboarding], are harmless psychological ploys is contradictory to well established medical knowledge and clinical experience."

Susannah Cullinane reported that three women were rescued in London after being held captive for more than 30 years. The women were severely traumatized when found by the police. They had been used as slaves and domestic servants. As of November 22, 2013 the women were being tended to and kept in safety. The couple that was charged for capturing the women were released on bail (Cullinane, S.). This tip from the Freedom Charity has put the police in a serious investigation to find more victims of human trafficking in the area.
Everyday law enforcement personal have the possibility to face dangerous events in their daily duties. In performing such duties a police officer could come by a seemingly ordinary task, and in a blink of an eye the event can turn threatening and possible deadly. When or if this happens to an officer they won’t have

What do most people believe to be true about the topic? Spanking is the only resource that is most effective. Yet, there are several other types of punishments that can be used in place of spanking. In my opinion, spanking is not the most effective means of punishment. We tell kids growing up that “violence is never the answer” so why should violence, because technically speaking that is what spanking is, be the answer? Why not try to get a child to understand that their actions were wrong in a more non-violent way and not contradict ourselves. What are you trying to instill in your child, fear or violence because either one of those you will accomplish. Other than just the pain taking place during the spanking, the child could also experience
Persons found guilty of committing the crime of kidnapping risk being imprisoned or heavily find. Additionally, during a kidnap some other offense might occur such as assault and battery. False Imprisonment and Kidnapping are comparative terms but unmistakable as per their legal definitions. While both include persuasively taking an individual away without his consent, false imprisonment is more correctly used in particular cases where a person is confined in a bounded place and denied his or her freedom. Kidnapping is a broader term and includes the unlawful taking of an individual without his consent using threats, deceit, or force with an end goal of confining him or her (Robbins, 2014).
Child welfare sounds like an interesting topic, over the years, I’ve read some pretty good stories about the welfare of children. For a long time, children have been mistreated, abused (physically, emotionally, and mentally), and made to grow up before their time. Perhaps you can give a voice where otherwise there isn’t.
To me, the kidnapper, and anyone who commits a crime on a similar scale, forfeits all human rights and effectively removes himself from humanity by carrying out such a heinous deed. He is no longer deserving of respect, dignity, or kindness, and may be subject to any punishment fit to the degree of his crime. I, too, believe in the upholding of “The Golden Rule”, but in a much more literal sense. If one commits a crime against an innocent person, he/she should be prepared to receive the same fate, as I think reciprocation is morally acceptable. To bring this out of the theoretical and into modern debates, I think the death penalty is
The definition of kidnapping is taking away a person against his or her will through force or threat and holding such person in false imprisonment; holding a person without any legal authority or right to do so. There are many reasons this horrible crime is committed. Some kidnap for ransom, to succeed in other crimes, gain custody of their child, and even political reasons. Although most of us associate strangers to be the committers of such a crime, a lot of victims are actually kidnapped by someone they know or even a relative ("Criminal Law Lawyer Source").
It does not behove a Prophet that he should have captives until he engages in regular fighting in the land. If you take captives, except in regular fighting, you will be regarded as desiring the goods of this world, while ALLAH desires for you the Hereafter. And ALLAH is Mighty, Wise (8:68 (The Holy Quran)
