Mitchell kidnapped Smart in 2002 from her bedroom in Salt Lake City when she was 14 years old, and chained her to a crude campsite in the mountains a few miles from her family’s home.
Mitchell, whom Smart refers to as her “captor” without naming him in the video, repeatedly sexually assaulted the girl. Her family’s frantic quest to find her captured the country’s attention — up until she was found on a Sandy, Utah street in 2003.
