When 12-year-old Jan Broberg begged her parents for permission to go horseback riding with a beloved family friend, they graciously agreed. Robert Berchtold, after all, was married, a father of five children, the family's neighbor, and a devoted church member. The Broberg's trusted him completely. Jan didn't return that night. On October 17, 1974, she was kidnapped, drugged, strapped to a tiny bed and driven to Mexico. The FBI conducted a nationwide manhunt and found Jan 5 weeks later, but the bizarre story didn't stop there. Berchtold was welcomed back into their lives and allowed to spend time alone with Jan regularly….until he kidnapped her a second time! ABDUCTED IN PLAIN SIGHT tells the story of one family's struggle with desire, deceit, faith and forgiveness. The Broberg's troubling admissions reveal epic failures and untold personal dramas that point to the biggest tragedy of all – that these crimes could have been prevented.

these parents were SO STUPID???!?! the fact that they kept letting him come to her room was already so stupid!!! he was assaulted by his aunt when he was younger and his excuse for therapy was to go into their underage daughter's room?? the signs were all there. the fact that her parents said they didn't want the stuff between their marriage to get leaked shows how incompetent they are as parents bc they would rather their marriage have a bad story for the 10 people in their town than save the innocence of their daughter. AND THE FACT THAT the daughter wanted to visit this man when he had his own business AND THE MOTHER GOT HER A PLANE??? instead of explaining to her what was going on???? NOT TO MENTION THIS PERVERT'S BROTHER who knew what was going on and didn't think to alert the authorities shows that men in this world will see stuff and not say anything. it's not their business so why should they have to speak about anything. god, all the adults in this were SO STUPID it makes me so upset

These people are so stupid. They let this man kidnap their kid TWICE and allowed him to sleep in her room after they found out he has a fetish for children???? disgusting. would not recommend this to anyone.

These were very confusing times!! I do not understand not tellingnthe truth to your children? It could save there life!! No matter how old your children are tell the truth!! This saved my childs life when I told her the truth about everything at only 4 years old when she asked me! She was kidnapped 1 week later because I told her the truth she pushed him! He fell she ran home screaming!! She is A Success today and don't even remember what happened!! Never lie to your children!!
