U.S.: Elizabeth Smart is joining ABC News — as a contributor

  • She’s going to comment on missing persons cases to give people the perspective from the family. This is pretty good, because this is a unique perspective that she can do well — and it’s one that is often overlooked. What’s better is that she’s willing to do this, despite what happened to her in the past. But one has to wonder if this gives into the tabloidy nature some of these stories fall into. That said, it will certainly be interesting to see what she has to say, and hopefully adding her voice to those kinds of stories will help people see the bigger picture. source

U.S.: Elizabeth Smart Trial: The weirdest number we’ll post today

  • 350 number of wives Elizabeth Smart’s kidnapper wanted source
  • » Wait, what? Well, that’s what Brian David Mitchell’s imprisoned (now-estranged) wife Wanda Barzee said during testimony today. She said he believe that God had told him to “take” young girls and make them his wives. Because that’s not weird or anything. We haven’t exactly been following this trial very closely because we don’t have any interest in it, but the second she said a number crazy enough to go on the site, we posted it.
