Amen.

I’m glad her terrible ordeal hasn’t kept her from living a life.

She is an amazing young woman. Indeed, she was chosen to lead by example. Wish her all good things.

Good for her. I’m glad she is moving on with her life. She strikes me as being a very strong young woman, who has her head on straight and will be an inspiration. Congratulations, Elizabeth!

I think that part of why she’s living such a dream life is to get back at her tormentor. He spent 9 months thinking he controlled her and wrecked her...and now she’s totally public and having a great time - while he enjoys the penal colony.

I searched and found a thread by the moderator that linked to all the Elizabeth Smart threads. That was before I even signed up here.

How come the press in the UK can dig up these things and the press here can't ? Elisabeth Smarts' fiancee

I don’t think it’s a matter of “digging up”.
She hasn’t publicly identified him. The British press doesn’t care about her wishes or feelings.
