Rebecca S is sceptical about Elizabeth Smart. Is she smart too?
I'm glad, for the sake of the everyone concerned, that Elizabeth Smart was returned safely to her family. However, I do not believe Elizabeth Smart was kidnapped at all. The police say the reason why she was unable to escape is because she became psychologically attached to her kidnappers.…

HOW SMART IS REBECCA?
Oh my gosh, I can not believe that this is even a topic. The things that has been writen and to question what took place GROW UP!

John Smith, yes faces can be blurred but once again, that adds distractions to a picture and when police are trying to ask the public for help in finding someone, they don't want anything to detract from what the public focuses on. As for cutting out faces, I'm pretty sure the police didn't have a lot of Photoshop time on their hands to do it properly when they were desperately trying to find a little girl.
Just wondering, but you people who think she faked the whole thing also believe 9/11 was an inside job? What about Area 51? Oh and the moon landing was a fake? Loch Ness monster? Am I getting close?

So, since she had a terrible ordeal NO questions should be asked? We should all just SHUT DOWN OUR BRAINS AND IGNORE EVERY weird thing that this family (especially the father) did and said. ASK NO QUESTIONS, THEY'RE NOT ALLOWED!! The hysterical histrionics on display here are SICKENING.
And stop trying to suppress free speech! Not everyone is as uberemotional as you; some people are critical thinkers and DO have questions. We have a right to ask them, too, just as Rebecca has the right to express herself. Move to CHINA if you don't like it! I'll help you PACK!!

Pregnant?
That's like Brian Mitchell having a cow!

This is the most unbelievable piece I've read on this story. I hope you get kidnapped and raped 3-4 times a day, and then accused of enjoying the ride.

Everyone who agrees with this or actually believes any of it are absolutely moronic. Effin ridiculous and scary.

The sentiment stated in this article are devoid of any logic. Worse, their complete lack of sense is compounded by an absolutely blind contempt for the Smart's religion. This girl is kidnapped, tied to a tree and raped, and you think she just wanted a break from the family? Seriously? Unbeleivable.

I hope you feel like a real asshole now.

If this girl was gone for 9 month = 270 Days. And, was raped 3 or 4 times a day, eveyday - as she testified, that would mean that she had sex AT LEAT 945 times. I didn't ever hear her mention anything about condoms. I can't beleive that she didn't get pregnant.

James, what you describe here is not what happened to her. Please read the police reports.

I always found something unsincere about her explanations and her reactions to questions. She doesn't come across as genuine like N Kampush or JL Dugard.
I think it would look terribly bad for her to recognize anything close to choosing to follow Mitchell voluntarily or having accepted so easily polygamy.
