    I just looked her up. As part of her therapy to overcome her PTSD, she wrote a book. She's a victim advocate for children and gives speeches to law enforcement. Good for her working through that terror and pain to try to help. I hope she has some peace in her life. ❤

    Women, when you're alone in your home, do NOT let a man inside. I think I remember this one, but an episode where the victim is found alive is worth watching 5 times. All the agencies involved worried about being on the wrong track, but without anywhere else to go, they followed their instincts and saved a woman's life. Bravo!

      The best part was when the scumbag who kidnapped her was like "I can't help you, get me out of here asap! I have places to be" Once he's in cuffs I would look at him and say "The only place you're going is a prison cell! We found Anita and she's alive. She told us everything you scumbag! Now you'll have places to be alright. A holding cell, courtroom and prison cell! Have a nice life!"

    I have watched countless episodes of Crime Stories, that all involved either ‘finding the body’, ‘identifying the remains’, ‘determining the guilt’, ‘unsolved cold cases’, & ‘missing persons’, etc.
    THIS episode is by far, my favourite!!👏🏽💕
    Excellent work, to all members of the investigative team, of a superbly coordinated bunch of professionals!!👏🏽💕
    It left me with goosebumps, & happy tears.
    “Well done!!”

    I literally am hyperventilating as I watch this video because in 1974, a member of my family, my younger brother 3, I was five was kidnapped and abducted just like this when we get separated while playing in our own backyard. The outcome, was not the same, at 2 a.m. he was found hanging from a tree with barbed wire strangled, tortured, mutilated and he was only three years old he was my younger brother who I was babysitting. His name was craigie Alan Smith, this happened in Minneapolis Minnesota in 1974 and oh God what I like to tell my story about how it affected every family member

    This was definitely one of the best FBI Files episodes/cases I've see from this series. For once, seeing a happy ending to a horrendous ordeal is quite calming. I think everyone can agree that it was the coming together of different law enforcement agencies that had one shared goal in mind to bring Anita home alive, was without a doubt key to this huge success! I hope she's doing well and did end up becoming an FBI agent in order to help other people in these types of cases.

      She seems like optimistic and trusting person, naive, yes, but more in a kind way. She probably thought she's helping somebody who's struggling in their life. It's possible she was in some formal contact with him occasionally, as him showing up randomly at her door didn't raise suspicion.
      I don't know what neighborhood it was, but there are certainly neighborhoods where it's common to let strangers in, because it's safe and usually people need help. If somebody knocked on my door i'd open them up without checking or asking who it is. Hell the doors are always unlocked, even at night, been so for 25 years, worst thing that ever happened is that somebody came in and left small gifts and we didn't know who it was.
