Teen Abducted By Teacher Is Acting Like Different Person; Family At A Loss

More Than a Father/Daughter Relationship

Jill Cummins was a little concerned about her husband’s relationship with Elizabeth and felt that he was being a bit too friendly with the young woman. She explained, “He was getting really close to her. A father-daughter close, a friendship close, and I knew that. I discussed that with him. And explained to him, ‘She’s your student, you can’t be so close to her.'”

She added, “Never did I think there was a romantic thing between the two of them. There were no signs of that.” She was blindsided by the abduction and quickly filed for divorce. She believed Elizabeth had been exploited and possibly brainwashed.
