Per the Deseret News, she spent several days staying in the apartment of Daniel Trotta, 24, a block from the SL police HQ. She was veiled the whole time, but Trotta, who was not involved in "Emmanuel's" pseudo-religion, says he saw no sign that anything was preventing her from leaving. "Emmanuel" and his veiled wife presented her as their daughter, she didn't disagree, and even chatted about favorite classes she'd taken in school. A LOT requires explanation here, especially since she's obviously happy to be home, which pokes a hole in theories of brainwashing -- that kind of brainwashing doesn't get undone in a few hours.
