From what I've read, the kidnappers were always there too. But it would have been two against two in an apartment a block from police HQ. And the kidnappers must have slept at some point -- couldn't Elizabeth have forced herself to stay awake one night, and quietly woken Trotta with a whisper to please help her, call the police when he leaves the apartment in the morning, etc.? I guess we'll probably hear the explanations, but it's pretty hard to figure based on what we know so far. I think it's possible she was kept on some kind of drugs which made her foggy-minded and compliant -- that would explain her apparent sudden psychological recovery.

Frankly, we don't know much beyond that she's safe. She had a one-hour interview with the police, and given that she was gone over eight months, that interview has barely scratched the surface, except to establish that she did not go with the kidnappers willingly and that she didn't stay with them willingly. She's got hours and hours of police interviews ahead of her and the police has days and days of investigation. We will find out very little of her ordeal from now until the court case begins unless her family and the police tell us or some facts are leak it to the press. The one thing that has to be preserved is the court case against the kidnappers.

Beyond the fact that she's safe and she didn't consent to be kidnapped or consent to being held by the kidnappers is speculation.
