      Smart was 14 when she was kidnapped in 2002 from her Salt Lake City home and held as a prisoner by Barzee and her husband Brian David Mitchell. She was rescued in 2003.http://abcn.ws/2NrkJ1d

      Smart said in a news conference last week that Barzee saw her as a slave, and called her a "handmaiden." "She did appalling things while I was in captivity," Smart said. "I know the depth of her depravity."http://abcn.ws/2NrkJ1d

          Smart was shocked to find out her captor would be released from prison so soon, saying last week, "I would urge the powers that be and anyone who works under them to really strongly reconsider this situation." http://abcn.ws/2NrkJ1d pic.twitter.com/uuruXMm98f

          She served the maximum sentence allowed by law because she was charged with both state & federal crimes. Her federal sentence allowed her to gain some credit towards her state sentence as time served. She should’ve been released in 2024. She’s not getting much of a break.

          The US cannot really call themselves leaders in this world anymore. This is insanity.
