Ed Smart defied police orders and released his daughter's kidnapper's sketch to the public himself. Within four days, someone recognized the man in it. Brian David Mitchell had been hiding in plain sight the whole time, eating at restaurants, preaching on street corners, and sleeping one block from a police station. Elizabeth was right there with him, and nobody said a word.
This episode contains descriptions of kidnapping, child sexual abuse, and captivity. Please listen with care
