Ok I have gone through several different emotions reading this thread. Let me wait until I give my opinion
I'm speechless

True. But at least she’s a minorMan, throw the whole kid away!Jussie Smollett really is the people’s champ.
I’m pretty sure she and her friends didn’t think there would be video footage and so much media attention. The video was probably a huge reason this was so viral.True. But at least she’s a minor
What I kept thinking is just because she staged it doesn’t mean nothing happened while she was gone. I don’t know why but I get the feeling this didn’t go entirely the way she planned.
Yes. Last week I listened to a local radio program about sex and human trafficking that dispelled many of the myths that we see on social media. It was interesting.Sex trafficking is usually more nuanced than just snatching people off the street. A lot of victims are usually lured into it and go “willingly.” More often than not the stuff we see online about vans and snatching end up being urban legends. Not always but most of the time.
This is just so disappointing.
Time to get 'la chancla' ( a slipper that Latina moms use on their children).
Did this girl think that staging a kidnapping would make her mom change her mind about moving back to Honduras? I don't know if the mom is moving back because of work, family or she doesn't like the environment that is around her daughter but this is not the way to go. She had her mom all worried and the police and others concerned for her safety. Women and girls are truly being snatched and thrown into sexual slavery and this fool decided to stage her own kidnapping so that she could stay here. In two years, she'll be 18 and able to legally return to this country if she so desires.
I'm betting a boy has turned her head and she wants to stay to be with him.
I don't think the cameras should've been all up in her face like that... that was my child, the cameras were getting whacked...the media sometimes can be so insensitive. That girl looks traumatized.. but I'm glad she's been found and is back with her family!

All of these instances you posted are small children. And yes small children are usually snatched because among other reasons, they are easier to overpower. In most cases where teenagers and young adult women are taken for sex trafficking it is far less likely for them to be snatched off the street. They are usually groomed or tricked in some way. (A new boyfriend, promises of a job, a friend trying to "help" them get away from their parents). I'm not saying it never happens just that it's less likely. And in the rare instance they are snatched it's done wee hours of the morning with no one around not at 11pm in the Bronx (which for some can still be considered early in this city) when you are walking with another person who can possibly identify everyone involved.I disagree about urban legend... this stuff is happening for real. These are recent stories, in Georgia alone:
An 11-yr-old, in August
Girl nearly abducted at playground, in October
Police searched for a van with a cage after children said it chased them, in November
White van sightings in Albany
4 year old nearly abducted at Ga Aquarium
I didn’t say ALL were urban legends. I said most are. I didn’t mean news stories like these. I see a lot of third-hand accounts on Facebook about so-and-so was snatched by a van. The cops usually find no truth when to many of those stories when they follow up.I disagree about urban legend... this stuff is happening for real. These are recent stories, in Georgia alone:

I got this amber alert yesterday morning and they always make my heart sink. What was interesting about this one was there wasn't any additional information but to just check local news. I watched the vid and was almost afraid to leave my apartment. By late afternoon news stories everywhere were saying it was a hoax.
My sister didn't believe the hoax story saying the kidnappers threatened her life and were making her tell this story I was like I know you don't want to believe a black girl lied about something like this but that makes no sense. And this 16 year old child is already a dangerous individual to come up with something like this. Have her mama thrown on the ground screaming and crying behind a car that just took her child. The world is a crazy place.
You called it.
Ny Post so grain of salt:
The apparent abduction of a 16-year-old girl from a Bronx street sparked an Amber Alert and a citywide manhunt late Monday into Tuesday.
But hours later, the girl resurfaced and admitted to cops that the whole thing was staged so that she could be with her boyfriend, a 23-year-old reputed Crips gangbanger once arrested for murder, cops and police sources said.

And "dating" a 16 year old. I actually think you're on to something with the bolded because that 16 year old looks 45 and weary, like she done seen some thangs.So her bf ('cough' pimp) is 23, a gang banger and arrested previously for murder...
It still does NOT make any kind of sense! How would getting fake abducted help you to stay??!!
So her bf ('cough' pimp) is 23, a gang banger and arrested previously for murder...
Are we sure the BF did not plan this for another reason?Ransom? Whatever? And the girl changed her mind but could not implicate the BF?
Idk...something is not right.
Right, whatever happened to just running away from home?I need these new teenagers to grow a pair. Just tell your mother that you hate her, aren’t going anywhere and belong to the streets. Faking a kidnaping.
This is what was going through my mind when I saw it was staged.... it just seems odd. “Staged” on her end does not mean that the time spent away from her family afterwards went according to her plans.
Eh I don't expect much from a dumb 16 year old and a loser 23 year old gang member dating a dumb 16 year old. There are tons of stories of dummies being dumb everyday that make little sense but they still did it (Couple of threads below this one we have a guy holding someone at gunpoint for a darn website and then another with a bank thief posting himself with the money. And those are grown folks so...)It still does NOT make any kind of sense! How would getting fake abducted help you to stay??!!
