He gave her colored contact lenses and a pair of glasses belonging to his daughter.

Lindsay was here for 17 days under the strictest instructions never to leave the room and never to open the door for anyone.

The Arnders put the new Lindsay on a bus to New York and handed her a plane ticket to Greece.

Paid for by Con Baring.

Klinger's investigators meanwhile had found emails from Dawn Arnder on Lindsay's computer.

They called Ohio police officer Todd Beeman and they discovered the Ohio cops already knew the Arnders.

Did they ever?

Beeman went online to investigate Lindsey's disappearance.

To his surprise, Don Arnder sent him suggestive pictures and bragged that she and her father had helped Lindsey get out of the country.

Lindsay was long gone by then, but police arrested Robert Arnder after they found scores of homemade sex videos at his house.

Many featured children.

They also found more child pornography from Con Baring on his computer.

Is there material specifically relating to Lindsay?

Robert Arnder later would be sent to prison for 85 years for child rape in another case.

His daughter Dawn, it was found, had been a victim of abuse and was placed in protective custody.

But Con Baring, mastermind of Lindsay's escape, was still one step ahead of the police.

Having used Martina and the Arnders to get her to New York, he now used his own powers of persuasion to get her on that plane, giving her specific instructions on her cell phone every step of the way.

This is the most amazing story I've ever heard.

It is.

It's just astonishing.
