The kidnaping cases have different backgrounds but mostly the kidnapers had some sort of mental disorder that made them so things as gross as kidnaping someone and torturing them.

The story of Masha is very heart touching as she was not just a child who was kidnaped in a very awkward way and abused. She was in a Russian orphanage from where she was adopted by an American man Matthew Mancuso, unfortunately after her adoption there were no visits made to make sure that the child was alright. More over even at the time of adoption no background checks were made of the man and his conduct. The only information about him was that he was a divorced man and wanted to adopt a child.

She was just 5 when she was adopted and just after the adoption he started abusing her physically and not just that he started using her in child pornography and not in limited films but she was so much in the child pornography that police started searching for the poor child. The police after watching so much abuse with her started investigating and taking clues from the films which led to the man and finally Masha was rescued by police. The case was taken so seriously that after just 3 months she was rescued. Masha has filed a law suit and her adoptive father is sentences to jail for child pornography and child rape both. These kidnaping stories are mind disturbing.

This is one of the kidnaping stories when the kids are kidnapped and kept captive for years and when they escape they lack the ability to adjust in normal things. The girl was kidnapped at the age of 9 and was kept for 9 years in lock. She was abducted in 4thgrade and when free also behaved like a child.
