Level 7 · 1 mo agoJordan planned her escape for 2 years with a dead phone and a zip code. Meanwhile I can't even plan dinner without GPS and a full battery lol

Level 5 · 1 mo agoJordan taking photos of the chained siblings before she escaped... that level of presence of mind under that kind of terror is staggering. She knew no one would believe her without proof. Seventeen years old.
