I Am Elizabeth Smart
World Premiere Saturday at 8/7c

2017 marks the 15-year anniversary of Elizabeth Smart’s abduction. Part of a cross-network event with A&E, Lifetime’s "I Am Elizabeth Smart" is the definitive, authorized movie about the harrowing kidnapping of Elizabeth Smart, told from her perspective and with her full participation. In June 2002, Elizabeth Ann Smart (Alana Boden) was a 14-year-old girl when she was abducted from her Salt Lake City home by religious fanatic Brian David Mitchell (Skeet Ulrich). He brought her to a hilly encampment where, with his twisted accomplice Wanda Barzee (Deirdre Lovejoy), he held Elizabeth captive. She was starved, drugged, raped and subjected to bizarre religious rituals until, nine months later, she enabled her own rescue. A film about the kidnapping was rushed on the air shortly after the incident, but it shied away from the reality of what Elizabeth went through. Now, in "I Am Elizabeth Smart," Elizabeth herself, as a producer and on-screen narrator, explores how she survived, and confronts the truths and misconceptions about her captivity...

I tried to watch the premiere last night but found the made-for-TV movie pedestrian and tedious. :moo:

Elizabeth Smart outraged 1 of her kidnappers to be freed

A woman convicted of helping a former street preacher kidnap Elizabeth Smart in 2002 will be freed from prison more than five years earlier than expected, a surprise decision that Smart called "incomprehensible" on Tuesday.

Wanda Barzee, 72, will be released Sept. 19 after the Utah Board of Pardons and Parole determined it had miscalculated the time she was required to serve in prison, board spokesman Greg Johnson said.

[...]

"It is incomprehensible how someone who has not cooperated with her mental health evaluations or risk assessments and someone who did not show up to her own parole hearing can be released into our community," Smart said.

Disgusting...Elizabeth said that woman is every bit as dangerous and deranged at the animal who kidnapped her.

This is NOT right. I live in Utah, & will do what I can if there's any local protest. This just sucks. I see no reason to let her free, EVER.

What an absolute disappointment. Elizabeth has given so much to so many since her ordeal and this is the respect and justice given? I cannot work out why this would be happening. She should have gotten the same as Mitchell did for her crimes. She never tried to help Elizabeth. But then again, why would she. She did awful things to her own kids.
