During this episode we discuss some of the high value celebrity kidnappings of the last century. We discuss Frank Sinatra Jr. and the team who kidnapped him to gain start up money for a new business venture. The abduction of Juan and Jorge Born including the most ransom demand paid up until that point. Alfred Heineken and his driver, who were kidnapped for three weeks before being rescued after the family paid the kidnappers. Kevyn Wynn, the daughter of Steve Wynn, a Las Vegas legend, who was recovered after only a few hours. At the end of this podcast we discuss the current kidnapping of Nancy Guthrie and explore theories of where she could be and who might have taken her.
