Talk:Kidnapping of Colleen Stan

message: There is the appearance of a contradiction between "Earlier, Cameron and Janice had reached an agreement that Janice could have a baby if Cameron could have a sex slave" and "There was to be no sex with Colleen according to the agreement, but this was later to change." It is stated that Janice agreed Cameron was allowed to have a "sex slave"  so how is it that "there was to be no sex with" Colleen? If the meaning is that "the original agreement was that he was to have a sex slave but that sex slave was to be another woman, not Colleen" then this needs to be stated. If there's another reason, please put that in.
Answer: Colleen was called a sex slave, but a better title would have been a torture and humiliation slave.  Colleen was kidnapped in May, 1977, and sex (rape) didn't come until January, 1978.74.211.52.252 (talk) 16:34, 20 October 2009 (UTC)

message: Cameron Hooker is noteable since there is a book, a long web article and a Law and Order: Special Victims Unit episode based on his crime.  There was also an A&E documentary.  MikeWren 14:58, 22 November 2006 (UTC)

replies: text: Since he didn't have multiple victims, I would tend to support having a page about Colleen Stan instead. Or perhaps we could have a page about what happened, although I'm not sure what the title should be. Sarsaparilla (talk) 20:10, 28 January 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: The alleged victim is less significant than the alleged perpetrator.  Notably there were two perpetrators here, but only one was charged.  It is most logical to have a single article, as there is, rather than articles on the individuals concerned.203.184.41.226 (talk) 05:00, 8 June 2013 (UTC)

message: Question: I cleaned up the article a little bit, but it could use some more clean-up.  also:"causing comparisons to the Story of O"?  causing comparisons?  by whom?  cite?

thread_title:  Pseudonym? 

message: Reading the section about 23 hours in a box, the text indirectly suggests that this is possibly untrue by saying that certain questions remain unanswered eg about maggots. This is similar to people around a table discussing this story, and are not in themselves facts, even if they were used by the defence at the trial. I am removing them. 129.78.64.100 (talk) 07:52, 3 May 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: What is  "discussive elements"?  Do you mean controversy?  The comment seems to relate to questions regarding the alleged victims credibility.203.184.41.226 (talk) 05:04, 8 June 2013 (UTC)

message: This article was in :Category:Children kept in captivity: I have removed it, since according to the article, Colleen Stan was not a child when she was kidnapped. Unless I'm missing something here, that category doesn't apply. Robofish (talk) 23:41, 30 May 2010 (UTC)

message: I am really really new to Wiki and researched this case after watching a documentary on TV about Colleen Stan, and found my way to this article. I hope to add as many ref's and cite's to it as I can, along with some additional verifiable information. Maybe when I feel adequate enough at editing and writing here I can get a page going for Colleen (in response to an earlier post. I changed a couple things today but still don't feel real confident that I am doing it right. Especially filling out the cite template and understanding the difference between the different types of references. Anyone who gets a chance to look at my edits please please feel free to comment on them so that I may be able to learn and get better at it. Thanks a bunch.

message: The quote ' "A voice told me to run and jump out a window and never look back," she recalled, but she calmed her fears and went back to the car' is ambiguous. Does this mean a real voice - if so, whose? - or a "voice in her head"? was this a warning from the wife, in which case that should be stated.203.80.61.102 (talk) 02:17, 1 September 2017 (UTC)

thread_title:  Current information on Hooker 

message: It appears that the media often make names in crime cases. As a result this case has been referred to as "the girl in the box" and a "kidnapping". However another late 20th century case is also called "the girl in the box" and refers to a "kidnapping". So it is confusing when searching "girl in the box" and "kidnapping" as to which one is meant as in this guardian article: 
https://www.theguardian.com/news/2019/sep/24/ursula-herrmann-germany-kidnapping-mystery
without such an article is is unclear to someone that is neither in the USA nor Germany which case is referred to. So when (as in my case) searching for Girl in the Box and Kidnapping wikipedia points to this article it is not obvious that it is a different person / case. As a result I put a see also tag at the top of the article in both cases. Disambig could be done in other ways. BUT That requires article rewriting that is very time consuming.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 88.112.30.115 (talk) 18:24, 29 November 2020 (UTC)
