He could have easily threatened her, perhaps shamed her into thinking that no one would want her after what she's done with him, even if he has done it to her. I'm sure she was clearly brainwashed, into believing that. Even that movie based on a true story, "I Know My First Name is Steven." the kid stayed with his kidnapper, as he posed as his father, for years before he turned him in and reunited with his family.

I know that IndogoJo feels that all females automatically always don't want to be raped; however it is not uncommon in kidnap situations for the victim to develop affection towards the person holding them. This does not detract from the ordeal, but might explain the choices the victims make and the resultant press interest.
