13-year old Alicia Kozakiewicz had a chatroom friend who convinced her to sneak out of her Pittsburgh home on New Year's Day. When she was a grown man pulling up to the curb she hesitated about her "friend," but it was too late. He grabbed her, threatened her, and threw her in his vehicle. For days he tortured and raped her, keeping her chained in his basement in Virginia. Four days later he told her they would be "taking a ride" that night, and she knew he would kill her. But then the FBI stormed the house and rescues Alicia. She is now telling her story, and preaching the dangers of online predators and cyberbullying. Kozakiewicz said that everyone knew her story and blamed her for what happend and people started to bully her.
