Held for ransom

 

"They made us strip to the waist, empty our pockets, and put our hands behind our backs.

Our wrists were cuffed.

They taped our eyes and mouths.

We waited as our other fraternity brothers were bound."

"Dumped into the back of a van, our ankles were taped together.

We drove for a long time, wondering what was going to happen to us."

"Ropes on our arms behind our backs, from our shoulders to our cuffed wrists, tightly binding them.

Ropes crossing our chests and guts, pinning our tied arms into our backs."

"Finally we were hung up by our feet for the ransom photos."

"We hung by our feet for 24 hours, until the ransom was paid.  They they cut us down.  They hogtied our feet to our necks, and left us to be rescued the next day."
