In a version of the story by the Abenaki tribe, Duston is more blood-thirsty murderess and less victim. In the Abenaki account, she befriended members of the tribe, got several of them drunk and then slaughtered them with a hatchet as they slept. That is the version that will ultimately get green lighted. Sharon Stone will be cast as Duston.

It's quite possible that both versions are true, in a sense. Indians kidnap woman and kill her baby. Woman pretends to befriend them, and gets them drunk. Woman takes her revenge by killing them all in their sleep. Entirely plausible.
