This is one of those baffling, stranger than fiction stories–Mother Held by Fugitive Back With Family:
Her husband at her side, her children just hours away, Bobbi Parker headed home to Oklahoma on Wednesday for the first time since she vanished along with an inmate after a prison break 11 years ago.
Parker, the wife of an assistant warden, disappeared with fugitive killer Randolph Dial in 1994 during his escape from an Oklahoma prison. Dial was arrested Monday, and authorities believe he kept Parker from escaping all those years by threatening to hurt her family.
This poor woman and her family. It’s odd to me that people would question how people like this woman and that young girl who was held captive in Utah could be held captive by fear. Why would people question this? Consider the people who keep themselves captive in their own homes because they are fearful of leaving. Fear is one of the strongest motivators we humans have. It is coded into our makeup.
