What are some interventions out there to try and solve the issue of kidnapping?

personally- being alert of your surroundings, never traveling alone, in dark or isolated areas. Being confidant, strong, and taking a self-defense course. Knowing better to bolt first and ask questions later in a potentially threatening situation.\n\nglobally/politically- not really much one can do. You either write a hostage off as a casualty and that makes you look like the bad guy. Or you give in, which means that kidnapping works and will continue to be used. I'm in favor of killing kidnappers who kill their hostages, and only mild leniency if they let their hostages go once their demands are met. \n\nIf you are kidnapped, keeping alert for chances to escape, staying strong, and keeping a positive outlook- KNOWING that you will get out of this- are your best weapons. Also, any opportunity to talk to your kidnappers, use your name, the names of your family, pets, loved ones- this makes you "more human" in their eyes, and harder to dispose of in a callous and unfeeling manner. It follows the scientific principle "never name your lab rat".

Well, give em a couple bucks... itll buy them a bottle of liquor that they think will help em keep warm... In all honesty, you really cant help them, They really have to learn to help themselves. You could start a homeless shellter but lots of luck with that. As for our government, id say its beyond hope

understanding and respecting other people's, culture, religion and rituals can help in solving this problem.\nthe crux of the problem is the greedy nature of human.

You have to do something.  You either have to put an end to it, which hopefully is possible, or you have to notify the authorities.  You can't let your one family get repeatedly stolen from.  And if this one family member will steal from another, who knows what they'll end up doing to you.

You need to go to the court house family division and file for a court date.  Then contact a lawyer and they will file for temporary custody of the kids  till the judge decides what is best for them. The lawyer should be covered by legal aid especially if there is no income.  Tell her to get a job even if it's through a temporary agency for the time being, it will help keep her mind off of it, and will also show the judge that she is able to support the kids. Tell her to put the utilities in her name to establish a credit rating.  The cops will not go after him for the kids until she has it in place that temporary custody is hers. They don't consider it kidnapping since he is the father. Tell her to call children's services in her area and let them know of his problems and what has occurred they can help in getting the children back.  Been in the same situation so if you need more help just contact me.

You have to start by calling attorneys in your area.  They can give you referrals to reputable attorneys that work on a contingency basis.  Since I don't know the specifics, other than a horrific rape, you should be able to find a good attorney with the know how to try this kind of predator on a contingency basis.

This problem may require intervention in the form of professional assistance. You may not like hearing that but it may prove essential in curbing this type of behaviour, especially if you are really serious about handling the situation.

Um...no. and if someone was I should hope they aren't silly enough to tell everyone.\n\nPredators could then begin working on coming to kidnap them.

Many rapists (and worse) start out that way, you need to be pro-active in getting this guy caught.  I like the above suggestion of surveillance camera.  Anything to trap him, get him identified and behind bars will help society at large.  Do your duty.
