Ed Smart is on TV now...

Says it was not a gun but a knife and the screen was cut from the outside. She also was held up in mountains until August. She heard people calling for her. She did not have knowledge of the "massive" search that was going on for her.

Ed Smart says the family is not pressuring her to talk about what happened to her over the last 9 months. He feels it will all come out when she is ready. He wants privacy for his daughter before she comes out and makes a statement. So eventually she may come out in public to talk about it.

I told you that I didn't think that there was a gun. I also don't think that there was a knife. I don't think that there was an abduction. I even question if there was an intruder or if Elizabeth didn't just walk out the open garage door.

I have said some harsh things about the police that I am now re-thinking and may have to take back. I have also said a few things about Ed Smart that may be proven to be inaccurate if events unfold as I think that they might.

Elizabeth Smart snuggles with her brother William beside her sister, Mary Katherine, at their home in Federal Heights - nine months after she was abducted.
