Estranged husband kidnaps his wife at gunpoint | Forensic Files

I was calling my sister and this person starts climbing out of the very back and
I couldn't tell at first who it was and then immediately I knew who it was but I
was screaming and the phone helped me I didn't know she had picked up it or not and then he grabbed the fountain so I
don't know if he turned it off I don't know how I never saw the phone it again he you know was I've been driving me and
people my face pretty hard and he goes his cousin and he pulled out a gun and like I mean not a hunting gun but I
couldn't even kill someone and he put it right here in my ribs so like I'm driving and he's right he's right here
and he kept saying I just want to touch you I just want to talk to you because he's been emailing me you know texting
me I blocked him up everything trying to get me to stop the divorce so then he was like I had to do this because you
won't answer my texts or my calls please just copy to herself I lost everything you know blah blah and then as we were
talking I was just kind of agreeing with whatever he was saying and it was like I
knew that you loved me and I he's recently lost his son his son is decided to be they would maybe he enjoyed
custody you know he doesn't and so he's not lost my son lost you have nothing to
live for and I almost like you could get us all back if you don't just turn your life
around because he was a Christian in one way and I was like it he'll just turn mental towards the whole time on the
term this way I'm buckled in it but he's he's calm he's calming down and so but they're gonna stall right there and I'm
just like what are you doing why are you doing this and he's doing I could tell he was you know and I was like I don't
