2: Episode 2: The Kidnapper

It's been a year since the smash hit documentary Abducted in Plain Sight premiered on Netflix and set the internet ablaze with shock, fascination, disbelief, and rage over the story of 12 year-old Jan Broberg who was kidnapped TWICE by her neighbor and family friend Bob Berchtold. This four-part series goes behind the scenes of the documentary and shares new interviews with Jan and her parents, deleted scenes, shocking plot lines cut from the film, never-before-heard audio journals from the kidnapper and his wife recovered by the FBI, and so much more. In episode 2 we're taking a hard look at the kidnapper, Robert Berchtold. We'll share clips of a truly insane plot line left out of the film, you'll hear Jan read an excerpt of an unpublished manuscript written by Berchtold about his affair with her mother, you'll hear from Joe Berchtold--the kidnapper's brother and the only member of the Berchtold family willing to speak to the filmmakers--, and we'll discuss new information that led to Jan Broberg being kidnapped twice.
