Can anyone name another kidnapping where the victim was found ALIVE after 51 days? Especially a high profile case like this one that received national attention.

(Other than rebels in South America kidnapping oil workers, or the missionaries in the Philippines, or something like that.)

Elizabeth is dead.

Here's one:

On 10 July 1973, in Rome, John Paul Getty III, grandson of oil billionaire and renowned scrooge, J. Paul Getty, was kidnapped and a ransom of $17 million was demanded over the phone for his safe return. Not one willing to part with his hard-earned money in a hurry, his grandfather refused to pay any ransom, “on principle.” In November 1973, an envelope containing a lock of hair and a human ear was delivered to a daily newspaper. The note attached said, “This is Paul’s ear. If we don’t get some money within 10 days, then the other ear will arrive. In other words, he will arrive in little bits.” Still reluctant to part with the ransom, Getty senior negotiated a deal and got his grandson back for about $2 million. John Paul Getty III was found alive in southern Italy shortly after the ransom was paid. His kidnappers were never caught.

That's assuming this is an actual "kidnapping."
