    She was kidnapped, and is being held somewhere against her will. This is absolutely insane, and not at all surprising. Doesn’t seem like the actual law enforcement will do anything about it? Or perhaps they are the ones feeding the info to the collaborators?

    That has to be terrifying for her family.

      Law enforcement does not have to do anything. A person could walk up to you in front of a police officer and stab you to death in full view of a crowd of people, and the cop is under no legal obligation to stop them.
