… when 14 year-old Elizabeth Smart was abducted from her Salt Lake City bedroom in June of 2002, a nation feared that the little girl would never be found alive again… MSNBC‘s ‘The Elizabeth Smart Story‘ recounts the details of that case and it’s very fortunate conclusion through the chilling words of Elizabeth Smart herself…
“Ed and Loise Smart lived in the affluent neighborhood of Federal Heights in Salt Lake City, Utah with their six children. On the evening of June 4, 2002, the family attended an award ceremony at Elizabeth’s school. After the family returned home and got ready for bed, Ed made sure the doors were all locked, but he did not turn on the alarm. “If the children got up and moved [in the night], it would set the alarm off. And so we just said we’re not going to bother with it,” Lois later explained.
In the early hours of the morning, Brian David Mitchell broke into the home and came to the bedroom that Elizabeth shared with her 9-year-old sister, Mary Katherine. While Mary Katherine pretended to be asleep, she watched the abduction, and later gave statements as to what happened.. ” – Wikipedia
