Yes. Elizabeth Smart was found alive on March 12, 2003, in Sandy, Utah, about nine months after she was kidnapped from her home in Salt Lake City on June 5, 2002. She was 15 years old at the time of her rescue and has since built a public life as a survivor and advocate, including speaking out in interviews, writing, and participating in a recent Netflix documentary about her abduction and recovery.
