Perhaps Elizabeth's religious indoctrination taught her to bow to "authority"? Her father, after all, says prayer brought back his daughter. Hence, shouldn't he be lobbying for a "Prayer Alert System"? I don't want to disparage religion, but only to critcize parents that indoctrinate their children to put blind faith in adults, particularly adults that represent some religious position. Note the Priest scandals, and the decades of silence.

Did this nut convince the girl that he was some messiah? A 14 year old girl that lives in a million dollar home is probably very different from a 14 year old girl from the hood. What kind of street smarts could Elizabeth have learned from her parents, who allow street bums into their house? Near their kids! Did you heard about the case last year when a little 7 year old black girl in Philly broke through a basement window to escape kidnappers?! Nevertheless, everyone reacts differently to circumstances. The direction of this thread seems to be blame the victim. What if Uz had been abused as a kid? I wouldn't blame him for remaining silent.
