A quiet Cleveland house became a hidden prison for three women from 2002‑2013, where they endured kidnapping, abuse, forced labor, and sexual exploitation. The episode traces the abductions, the captor’s manipulation, missed police opportunities, and the victims’ covert communication and resilience that led to their 2013 escape. It examines systemic failures in missing‑person investigations and highlights the survivors’ advocacy for reform and the power of human connection.
