“14-year-old Lindsey met a stranger online.”

- What did she say about this guy? That she loved him and that he cared for her. - When her parents discovered he was 35 and sending explicit love letters, they tried everything to stop him.

- I'm just saying, I want you to leave my daughter alone. - Then suddenly, Lindsey was gone. - I just knew she was probably gonna be dead. Susan Spencer Investigates, a shocking, global cyber conspiracy.

Using forged documents, Susan and Motel. - Having her identity changed. - Correct. - And underground contacts. They all work together to get her out of the country.

- Luring Lindsey to the darkest corner of the internet

and she wasn't the first he had tried to seduce.

- That could have been me and scary. - The astonishing story of a family torn apart and a detective determined to find Lindsey and bring her home.

“I would be frantic if it was my daughter.”

- Web of seduction. (dramatic music) - She was born way early. Three and a half months early, I had her. She was only a pound and ten ounces.

- When her daughter Lindsey was born, Stephanie Levoi nicknamed her blonde little girl, her miracle child. - Lindsey loved life, she loved everything about it, she loved. Animals, I mean, everything you can imagine.

- It's real pretty. - 15 years later, she says the miracle is that Lindsey is still alive. - What she went through, no one would want their child to go through.

No one. - Today, Stephanie has brought Lindsey to a rally for missing kids. - I don't believe that we need to terrify our children. I believe that we need to let them know

what's out there and who's out there.

“- Well, aware that her daughter was once one of them.”

Lindsey's experience was so painful, she's not yet ready to talk about it on camera. - Not beat myself up every day, for not finding some way of preventing it. - The nightmare began in August of 2000,

when 14-year-old Lindsey simply disappeared from the middle-class neighborhood where she lives with her mother, stepfather and brother, near Tampa. - August 28th, she walked out the door. - She was gone.

- I just wanted to die.

'Cause I knew I'd never say her.

I just knew she was probably gonna be dead. - Remarkably, Lindsey was found here in the port city of Thessaloniki in Northern Greece. And the story of how she got here is enough to make every family in America

through its computer right out the window. - Like many 14-year-olds, Lindsey was an internet junkie, spending hours a day on the computer her mother had bought only six months before. - She's very free spirit and just likes to enjoy

learning new things and seeing new things. - It's like, "Oh, I feel like people will email me "and that will really hurt." - I think she just was out there, just starting for someone to talk to.

- But Stephanie couldn't believe her eyes when she saw who Lindsey was talking to and what they were saying. - These are just all the emails that I have that I printed. - The letters were from a man in Greece named Khan,

explicit love letters. Lindsey's new penpal, long-ty wrote "To be her husband, "to be father to her children." - She was 14 at the time. And in those letters, he stated he was 35.

- Even though he was in Greece five thousand miles away, Stephanie was worried enough to order her daughter to cut off contact and fast. - Goodbye. - We sat her down, my husband and I when he came home,

and we just explained to her that this was extremely upsetting and totally inappropriate. - Now, what did she say about this guy? - That she loved him and that he cared for her and that age shouldn't have anything to do it.

- Lindsey was adamant. - He just had her so wrapped by that time that it was just too late to get her to change.

Soon the man began calling Lindsey in the middle of the night. - He had our cell phone number. He told me he knew where we lived.

“And he was thinking of purchasing a home down the street.”

He was just controlling our life. - Stephanie tried everything. - I just went ballistic on him. I just said, you know, I don't want you calling here. I am changing the numbers.

I want you to leave my daughter alone. - She took the computer keyboard with her to work. - There was no access to the computer in our home. - Put Lindsey into counseling. - He just convinced Lindsey that this counts

particular counts or didn't know what she was talking about. Even sent the letters she'd found to the FBI.

- And they said that basically there was nothing they could do.

- Then came that horrible August day. Lindsey said she wasn't feeling well. So against her better judgment, Stephanie left her home alone while she went to her job as a legal secretary.

- And when I brought my son home from school about 330, she was gone.

“- It was the first thing it went through your mind.”

It's just tear, and I knew instantly he had something to do with it. - You did. - Instant. - Yeah, I was just an instant gut redemption. - The local police said it was too soon

to declare Lindsey a missing person. - I had nowhere to turn, nowhere. - They thought this was a runaway. - A runaway.

- Lindsey had a turbulent adolescence

and a healthy disdain for authority. But Stephanie was convinced she would not simply run away that the mysterious man in Greece had, in effect, kidnapped her. - I felt so helpless because I just knew

at seemed like no one wanted to listen. - Not until Sergeant Klinger came on to the department. - So this is just part of her file, right? - Yes. - Sergeant Gary Klinger of the Pope County Sheriff's Department

had just taken over the missing person's unit when he opened Lindsey's file. It was two weeks since she disappeared. She'd been corresponding with a 35-year-old man from Greece. Well, that to me threw up a red flag.

- He copied Lindsey's computer hard drive and put his team of cyber sleuths to work. But he really didn't think that a 14-year-old runaway with no passport could get very far. - He kept telling me don't give up faith.

- Klinger was absolutely determined to get Lindsey back. - I would be frantic if it was my daughter. - Coming up, Sergeant Klinger reaches out to Greek police to expose what he believes to be an international internet conspiracy.

- They all work together to get her out of the country. - And to hunt down the man who'd lure the child halfway around the world. - He almost killed her. - I walked the floors at night, I turned the computer on.

In hopes that I'd hear from Lindsey's saying, I'm coming home. - In the weeks after her 14-year-old daughter Lindsey disappeared, Stephanie Lavoy was desperate. - Just hoping that I could see that maybe she's on the incident,

messenger or she's emailed me or something. - Stephanie's only real hope, Sergeant Gary Klinger. - Sergeant Klinger. - He has been a godsend from the day he called me and said I'm gonna take a personal interest in your daughter's case.

- What is she got in herself into? She can't be through this thinking straight. That's what he says. - Her deepest fear was that Lindsey's mysterious, internet pen pal writing from Greece,

somehow had lured her away. - I guess you could call it mother's instinct, you know how you just get that gut reaction and you just know. - She was gone and I was determined to get her back.

I guess just an awful family better. - Klinger analyzed Lindsey's email records

and finally identified her mystery man.

He was a shady internet entrepreneur named France Constantine Baring, a German national, but actually finding conbearing was another matter. Even though he was emailing Stephanie regularly, his pose to you is that he's in contact with her,

but he doesn't know where she is. - Yeah. - Throughout the months she was gone, I would hear from him saying, "Oh, well, I heard from her and she's in California."

Or she's going across the states to the north. It would just be a continual game with him.

“- He would just taunt her like that all the time, you know?”

Have you heard from Lindsey lately? - And she's worried sick. - Yeah. - Klinger still doubted a 14-year-old with no passport could have made it out of the country.

But soon, the emails changed. Baring was implying now that Lindsey was with him.

- And rubbing salt into the wound,

“Baring suggested he had rescued her from an unfit home.”

I know I'd done right. I just helped a friend to get out from a misery.

- Always stabbing that knife just a little bit deeper.

- As the months passed, Klinger funneled information to the Greek police and he urged Stephanie to keep the lines of communication open. - I was told to kind of play the game. - Your name here is Broken Heart Mama.

- Yes. - To help them, pinpoint exactly where he was. - Then Klinger's work finally paid off. - We trace back Lindsey's instant messenger screen name to Thessaloniki Grease.

(dramatic music) - The big break in the case came when police here in Grease decided to enlist the help of the local press. Soon pictures of Lindsey and Baring were on TV

and splashed across newspapers all across the country.

“- Just days later, someone in Thessaloniki”

saw Lindsey's picture on the news and called authorities. - Police found Lindsey walking along this street near the center of town. Apparently not realizing that Baring was walking just a few yards ahead of her.

They grabbed Lindsey, Baring saw it and kept on walking. - You were out of here like a shot. - I was out of here. Amit's the crush of cameras and cops came the moment

she had prayed for for five long months. - When I saw her face, I just grabbed her and hugged her and she hugged back. It was really nice. Wonderful.

- But soon, details of Lindsey's ordeal began to emerge. - Were you shocked at how she looked? - Yes, I was.

“Just the hair color and very tired and worn.”

- Detail so awful, she says, that despite months of counseling, Lindsey still is too fragile to talk specifically about what happened. - Going days without food, days without showers.

- She looks like she hasn't had a shower to wash her hair in weeks. She has dark circles, bags under her eyes and they may even be black eyes. - Oh boy, this is where they lived.

- What happened? - Yes. - But Lindsey was willing to talk to us off camera about certain things. - His office comes out into a balcony

and I spent most of my time out there looking down to everybody. - She had slept on the floor and she hadn't slept alone. - Is there any doubt in your mind that this was a sexual relationship?

- No. - No doubt at all. - No. - Lindsey admitted that Bearing had sexually abused her. Sometimes, even video-taping, they're encounters.

- awful things, just. He's, let me just tell you that he was extremely sadistic. I was gonna take her ears and ears to get over it. - The least turned up the heat in their hot for Bearing. - This is the course of the Borsar Mammoth.

- We pursue them and discovered the Adrono Way to Athens. - And acting on a tip, just one day after they found Lindsey, they busted Bearing in this house near Athens. They confiscated staggering amounts of pornography. - We found 87 disks in this possession.

- 87? - Wow. - Thousands of pictures, some of Lindsey. And there was chilling evidence that Bearing hadn't acted alone. - It's amazing how they put it together.

- A cyber conspiracy using bogus documents. - She was in a motel. - Having her identity changed. - Correct. - And underground contacts

to lure a vulnerable 14-year-old away from her family. - She had no clue what she was going to be involved in. - Before I started working this case,

you could've never convinced me that a teenage child

to walk on to an airplane fly out of state and let alone out of the country without some type of idea or challenge. - In the weeks after Lindsey disappeared, Sergeant Gary Klinger, who died on the 19th century,

- He died on the 19th century.

- He died on the 19th century. - He died on the 19th century. - He died on the 19th century. - He died on the 19th century. - He died on the 19th century.

- He died on the 19th century. - He died on the 19th century. - He died on the 19th century. - He died on the 19th century. - He died on the 19th century.

- And Gary Klinger realized he had underestimated Conbering. - Is this guy just an unbelievably good con man? - He must be. - Good enough to persuade total strangers to help him smuggle a teenage girl out of the country.

“- Why would anyone pick up a child from their home?”

Go get a plane to get and put him on a plane. - Face back, my dinner for Barrio. - But that is exactly what this woman did. - I thought he was a nice guy. I mean he was very intelligent, very articulate.

- Martina Kravaro, 24, who worked at a cell phone company in Lindsay's hometown. - This is Martina. - He's extremely persuasive. - Barring had called the cell phone company

to set up a prepaid account for Lindsay. Martina happened to take his call. Talking with her on the phone and online, Barring convinced Martina that Lindsay was a victim who had to be rescued.

- Did Lindsay herself tell you that she was being abused? - Yeah. - Sexually abused? - Yes. - Emotionally, physically, sexually.

- So Martina reached out. - So I will say it was enough to compelling to want to help. - Eventually doing the unthinkable.

“Helping a troubled teenager, she hardly knew”

run away from home. - He eventually gets Martina to agree to pick Lindsay up, take her to their port and put her on a plane. - Are you waving speedy trial?

- Yes, yes. - What she did was illegal. She pled guilty to charges of interfering with parental custody and was sentenced to two years of house arrest.

- Okay. - At the time, Lindsay, at out of your car, walked into the airport, about to get on that plane. Did you have any qualms at all about putting a 14-year-old girl on a plane to go off to whatever?

- No. I wanted to help her, I believed her. And I wanted to make sure she was okay 'cause I knew she was going to friends. - Lindsay claims she was going to stay

with her best friend, Dawn Arndor in Ohio. It was all part of Behring's plan. - This is Dawn Arndor.

- The girls actually never had met.

But Dawn, 18, and her father Robert,

“were the next players in Behring's elaborate plot”

to get Lindsay to Greece. - He did it all. We just followed. Not quite. Behring had promised the Arndor's whom he'd met online,

$2,000 for their help. He was betting that Lindsay could pass for Dawn. Use her passport. If only the two looked a little more alike. - This is where she was brought at the very beginning.

- Actually, she stayed at the Arndor resident for a day and then came to motel six. - It was here that Arndor helped Lindsay cut her hair and died it from blonde to dark brown. He gave her colored contact lenses

and a pair of glasses belonging to his daughter. Lindsay was here for 17 days. Under the strictest instructions,

never to leave the room and never to open the door for anyone.

(dramatic music) The Arndor is put the new Lindsay on a bus to New York and handed her a plain ticket to Greece. (dramatic music) - They're paid for by Con Barring.

- They're pretty good job. - Winning her house through the computer lines. - Clangers investigators mean while had found emails from Dawn Arndor on Lindsay's computer.

They called Ohio Police Officer Todd Behmann and they discovered the Ohio cops already knew the Arndor's. (laughing) Did they ever? - They'd been out to his house and calls,

disturbance calls and various types of calls, 23 times a year. (dramatic music) The Behmann went online to investigate Lindsay's disappearance. - I assumed an identity as a male juvenile.

- To his surprise, Dawn Arndor sent him suggested pictures and bragged that she and her father had helped Lindsay get out of the country. - We went to Ohio to serve the search warrant. - Lindsay was long gone by then,

but police arrested Robert Arndor after they found scores of homemade sex videos at his house. Many featured children. They also found more child pornography from Converring on his computer.

It is a material specifically relating to Lindsay. - Yes, yes there is. - Robert Arndor later would be sent to prison for 85 years for child rape in another case. His daughter Dawn, it was found,

had been a victim of abuse and was placed in protective custody. But Converring, mastermind of Lindsay's escape, was still one step ahead of the police. Having used Martina and the Arndor

of persuasion to get her on that plane,

“giving her specific instructions on her cell phone”

every step of the way.

- This is the most amazing story I've ever heard.

It is, it's just astonishing. - It's amazing how they put it together and how it all worked out. - Everything went so well that everyone involved in this investigation strongly suspects one thing.

- I don't think she was the first. (dramatic music) - Bearing had tried this before. - Carrey Boss was 50. - It wasn't too long and after I had met him,

but he asked me to grease. (dramatic music) (upbeat music) - Even as he was let off to prison, Converring insisted Lindsay was the only girl

in the world for him.

- Lindsay, I love you so much.

“I know that you love me and one day we will get married.”

- All of his internet activities were innocent. He claims, simply the writings of a man infatuated with his one true love. We came here to this internet cafe where Bearing once worked to see how much of his story

really checked out and who better to ask than the people he corresponded with on the internet. One of them gave us bearings a dress book and we're emailing every name on it. The list reveals a trail of cyber seduction

or at least attempted seductions (crowd cheering) From Eastern Europe to the Middle East. (upbeat music)

- To Tiny Bigelow, Minnesota.

(crowd cheering) - You know what I was talking about? I don't. - That could have been me. (laughs)

- Scary. - When Carrie Voss was just 15, she went into a chat room to meet other teens.

“- I can't remember the exact room that I was in,”

but I know that it was a teen room. - Instead, she met a 35-year-old smooth talker from Greece. - He whispered me like that in a chat room. - He seemed like a nice guy, but I don't,

I don't even know what it was. There was just something that just made me little aware of him. - She says Bearing, "Aster for a picture." And there were other questions that gave her the crepes.

- He asked me if I was in relationship and it wasn't too long and so after I had met him, then he asked me to Greece. - That made Carrie so uncomfortable that she blocked Bearing from her list of chat bodies.

- I just had like this gut feeling that, he just wasn't a good person. - It could have been devastating. - One of your clothes Monday is all right, huh? - When they bought the computer for Carrie,

her parents' lesson Irma had had a heart to heart with her about safe surfing. - I actually gave me goosebumps. It was shocking to think that this type of thing hits so close to home.

- If it could have happened to Carrie, if it could have happened to any person. - Every time when she saw me on one, he started to talk to me. - It also happened to this young woman in Eastern Europe.

We began chatting online with the same charming stranger with the same ammo. - He started to ask me to send him a picture of me. - And the same request. - Why don't you come?

It's so close, so near to where you live. (upbeat music) - When she refused, Bearing actually went to visit her and scared her so much that even now, she is afraid to show her face

or even to reveal her native country. - He was looking at me, no stop in a strange way. I guess I was feeling very uncomfortable. He measured something he would like me to be his girlfriend. - Which is the same basic story.

He told a 23 year old woman in Kuwait, who he also courted online for almost two years. She, like Lindsay, thought she was in love with Con Bearing. She only agreed to speak with us by phone. - So you had a definite plan,

you were going to get married. - That's right, Bearing even had proposed to her. - Yeah, but so I took to my bedroom and stayed with you.

that he was talking to, that you were the love of his life, right?

“- But little did she know, he already was married.”

And even had a child, Bearing kept that tidbit to himself. Lindsay didn't know either. In fact, none of the women had a clue about the others. - He certainly has a reputation for being a smooth talker. - But investigators agree,

Bearing's intentions went far beyond simple seduction. - I'm 48 hours from CBS, talking to Bearing. - We managed to get inside a Greek prison, to confront Bearing on that. - We waited a long time to talk to you.

- And on a few other things as well. - I still don't understand what you plan to do with this 14-year-old girl. - Yeah, by you Americans stuck so much on age. - What if everything you learned in history class

was only half the story? I'm Dr. Hoony bought host of Hidden History. Every Monday, I go where history gets mysterious. Vanish civilizations, doomsday prophecies, paranormal phenomena, and events that science do can't fully explain.

On Hidden History, I treat these moments like open case files. Not miss, not superstition, just incomplete explanations, waiting for closer look. Listen to and follow Hidden History, available now wherever you get your podcasts.

(upbeat music) - What if he walked in here now? - A better hope I don't have a knife because I seriously want to hurt him. We're really severely.

- Stephanie Levoi thinks Con Bearing has a lot to answer for. And, after hearing about Lindsay and the other young women, we had a few questions of our own. - Yeah, for Mr. Bearing. - Yes.

- The Greek Justice Ministry has a strict policy. No TV interviews in prison. Period. But this case is so controversial

“and so important to the image of justice here”

that the minister himself intervened on our behalf, giving 48 hours an exclusive opportunity to speak directly with Con Bearing. - And I don't believe that I'm a monster. - Bearing insists he is anything but a monster

that, in fact, from the moment he met Lindsay in an online chat room. The first thing that you're talking about is music. - He was a friend to a troubled girl who claimed she was being abused.

- As far as we can tell, she's never in abuse time.

- He's just a sadistic pedophile. But Bearing portrays himself as always the perfect gentleman in assisting his intentions were honorable. - Did you ever have sex with her? - No.

- But you slept together? - Yes, sometimes. - And you never took any pictures of her yourself. - For myself? - Uh-huh. - Never.

- Never. - And I didn't take any here. - Never.

“- He says helping abuse children is his passion.”

And any suggestion that he traded in child pornography is flat out obscene. - I hate pornography. - You hate pornography. Lindsay says that the two of you watched it.

- To show her what is right and what is not right.

- So first you bring her here to say it for,

and then you show her pornography to protect her. - No, you really want to eat night. - You tried to put me something in my mouth. No, it's not true. - Well, they found something like 37 CDs

in one of your offices. - No, they didn't. - Well, they didn't. - Well, they did. - No, they didn't.

- Well, we've seen it. - No, they didn't. - It's part of the evidence. And this, I have to, we've seen it. - But I feel a little better.

- These are pictures taken by Bearing himself. - Love it, huh? - Chief investigator, Yorgos Cocinus, believes Bearing eventually planned to use Lindsay as a prostitute. And even force her to appear in pornographic film.

- He believes he planned to sell the pictures of Lindsay. - Police still are investigating the source of his pornopictures. Many of which depict children as young as four. - There was a lot of indications

that some of these pictures have gone out. All over the states, we kept a pretty detailed log. - Ohio Police Officer Todd Beeman says Bearing and Robert Arner traded hundreds of pictures. Considered themselves big time porno kings.

In fact, Bearing's email inbox is full of porno sites. But incredibly, he claims his only interest in porn was in trying to stop it. - In the internet, he will find about 170 organizations against Chalpon, in all world.

- Right. - I'm a member in about 68. - He sent us a partial list of those organizations

None ever had heard of Con Bearing.

“- I feel like I have an obligation to tell you”

that no one on the Earth is gonna believe that explanation for why there was all this pornography. - Oh, go, go in the internet. - I know you don't care. - I have explained it before.

- He first claimed cops planted the porn to frame him.

- How many people can put in my heart or have whatever they want? - Then admitted he did have a collection but also a noble cause. I still don't understand what you plan to do

with this 14-year-old girl when she got here. - You stuck too much on 14-year-old. Why are you Americans stuck so much on age? - 'Cause she still a child. - It's for you, for you, it's a child.

For me, she was not a child. - Oh, you don't victimize somebody like that. - This is your opinion victimize. I don't call this victimizing. I call this safe.

“- But Bearing admitted that as time went on,”

his feelings for Lindsay did begin to change. - You and Lindsay were going to get married. - Making life. - Together. - Yes.

- She's 14. - No, she's 15 and a half. - No, she's 15 and a half. She's 14 when she came here. - Okay, she was 14 and three quarters.

- Do you realize what parents sitting at home listening to this? Well, think this would absolutely terrify them to think that some guy in Greece can coordinate a smuggling job that well?

- No, I don't agree. - Be patient. - They should be very thankful. (gentle music) - Thank you.

- Hope that Lindsay will be well. I love her very much.

“- In April of 2002, Constantine Bearing went on trial”

on charges of pornography and having sex with a minor.

- Never had any sexual contact.

- And Stephanie Lavoy returned to Greece alone to testify against him. - I told him on the phone one day that he's taken the wrong mother's child and I'm gonna stick to it and make sure he gets put away.

- But that whole quickly vanished. - I hope that Stephanie will know what's mean to justice. - Without Lindsay, the court ruled, there could be no trial. (laughing)

Stephanie simply collapsed, crushed by the decision. The judge demanded that the 16 year old Lindsay appear in person, fragile or not, to tell her own story. - She just might kill her still, we really have to come here.

(laughing) - Lindsay's remarkable journey to the Greek court and are even more remarkable journey to find herself. (gentle music) - July 2002, Lindsey returned to Greece

with her mother Stephanie to confront the man charged with abusing her. This despite fears that the 16 year old Lindsay, who's on medication, was far from ready for this. - I know that Lindsay's already here.

- It could prove to be very dangerous for Lindsey emotionally and mentally because it's like a logical control he has. When the moment arrives, the judge clears the court room and Lindsay takes the stand.

- My biggest fear is it's going to trigger a lot of the pain that she's held in for so long. - She explained in detail how bearing sexually abused her and asked that he go to jail for what he did. But then, astonishingly, she tells the court

she loves him nonetheless. - She says that she's still loving him, she said that. Twice. - Stephanie says Lindsay's been brainwashed. - So if they punish me, if they don't punish me,

I don't care. I don't care. I care what's happened with her. It's only when I'm interested for nothing else. - The court deliberates for just two hours

before declaring bearing guilty. But the sentence is light. - Eight years. - I'm gonna not forget you, Lindsay. - I want him gone for a long time.

- What would he get in the States? 20s, 30. - Conbearing seems almost pleased. - She loves me and now when I came out from the court room, she said that she loves me,

she will wait of me. - And you have eight years to think about that. - I don't have eight years, don't believe that. Thank you. - He was almost right.

- Two and a half years after our first report,

Stephanie and a dramatically different Lindsay returned to Greece yet again. - What's the light to be back here?

- Conbearing had appealed his conviction.

“The court could set him free in a matter of day.”

- No, I don't have anything to say. If I have something to say, I say, only through the Greek press, thank you. - Lindsay and I have just decided we're gonna take care of what we have to do here.

And that is to keep him here. - And Jail, as long as we can. - Lindsay is now 18 and doing better. - I'm gonna do interior design and psychology in a degree in philosophy.

- And this time, she agrees to speak to us on camera. - How is it very confusing to see the whole relationship

“so I can't really say how I think you do you meet?”

- Although it's still painful to talk about the details of that relationship. - It can't tower everything.

I didn't have basically no saying anything.

- It's getting a little bit easier. - Yeah, it's slowly, but there's really no control over it. You know, it'll go away for a little bit and then it'll come back, you know. Go away and come back.

- Lindsay suffers from flashbacks. She sees a therapist twice a week and is still on medication.

“But time has given her a better perspective”

on why things happened, the way they did. - You know, I don't know anything about the internet or about older men. I thought it was like the smartest, the greatest person in the world.

But sometimes, some people use as crazy love or sick love because you're just so caught up in it. - She's saying that she's still loving. - She's come a long way from the girl who told the court two years ago.

She's still loved Conbearing. Does she now? - No. - No. - She's a very sadistic, manipulative, you know, pitiful.

- The hearing, awful limits to cameras, doesn't take long. - 10 minutes half an hour is also going to have the decision. - That decision, bearings appeal is denied. It's back to prison for at least six more years.

- Try to find me. - The ruling gets the by now predictable reaction from bearing. Only take care of Lindsey. Everything else I have to say on the telephone.

- And a sigh of relief from Stephanie.

- We finally have a little bit more time to get well.

It's a try to be gone. - But someday, Conbearing will be out. And both mother and daughter wonder if the nightmare that started so innocently on the internet ever really will end.

- He's not gonna let her go. He's not gonna let her alone and Lindsey knows it.
