Elizabeth Smart's Abductor Gets Life in Prison Without Parole

SALT LAKE CITY (CN) - The man who kidnapped Elizabeth Smart and held her captive for 9 months was sentenced Wednesday to two life sentences in prison without possibility of parole. "I don't have very much to say to you," Smart told her rapist and abductor, street preacher Brian David Mitchell, who sang at his sentencing hearing.






I’m proud of Elizabeth Smart. This week, in U.S. federal court, she faced her kidnapper for the first time since being rescued and told him she's living a good life despite the horrors surrounding what he did to her.
