## Transcript

These photos from KNBC show that 25- year- old woman found, a decade after she says she was kidnapped. These photos taken during her alleged captivity show her, her alleged kidnapper, and their child, seemingly living a normal life. Breaking overnight, she tells our affiliate KABC that she's so happy and God- blessed to be with her family. She says, all the time, she cried for them. Police say the girl entered a police station in Bell Gardens, California, with a disturbing story. She told police her mother's then live- in boyfriend, this man, Isidro Garcia, drugged, kidnapped, and tricked her into keeping quiet after a fight at the family home, back in 2004.

She walked in on her own, and she stated that she was kidnapped about ten years ago, and held against her will. You're talking about a 15- year- old girl. They came to this country, doesn't speak English. Her mother's boyfriend decides that he wants to physically and sexually abuse her. He tells her that her mother doesn't care that she can't go to the police, because they're gonna deport her. The girl reported telling police she ended up marrying and having a baby with her alleged kidnapper, all the while, harboring the painful secret. This apartment complex is where the couple lived. Police say it's about 25 miles from where the victim's mother lived.

But people who live here in this very tight- knit community say, they knew the couple well, and they simply can't believe what they're hearing. It appeared, they loved each other. She would go to the market. Like every other couple, they'd be happy, kissing, holding hands, and like, she comes up with this now. Why did she take so long to do it, you know? Was there any indication that she was in trouble? That something was wrong in this family? That I think of myself, from what I've seen, no. But police say there was something terribly wrong. We do know, one and two occasions she fled. She was caught, and she was beaten for her efforts.
