A Nightmare Begins in Salt Lake City
The June night in 2002 started like any other for fourteen-year-old Elizabeth Smart, tucked safely in her bed beside her younger sister. Then came the whispered threat that would change everything: "I have a knife at your neck. Don't make a sound. Get up and come with me or I will kill you and your family." The stranger who materialized from the darkness wasn't actually a stranger at all-Brian David Mitchell had worked on the Smart family home months earlier, carefully plotting this moment while disguised as a harmless handyman. As Mitchell forced Elizabeth up mountain trails in the darkness, her bare feet bleeding on sharp rocks, the horror of her situation crystallized. At a hidden camp, she met Mitchell's wife and accomplice, Wanda Barzee, whose cold demeanor crushed any hope for female solidarity. What followed was unimaginable-a mock "marriage ceremony" and rape, the first of countless violations during her captivity. In those initial moments of trauma, Elizabeth faced a devastating question: Was she still worthy of love? Her religious upbringing had emphasized purity, and now she felt irreparably damaged. Yet even as despair threatened to consume her, she remembered her grandfather's spirit and her mother's words: "Elizabeth, there will never, ever be a time in your life when someone won't love you."
