Episode notes
Hostage takers aim to ensure safe delivery of hostages to protect their reputation; strategies involve building trust through compliance enforcement, delaying the negotiation process to reduce interest in keeping hostages, and shutting down social media accounts to prevent information leaks. Raising the profile of hostages, such as through crowdfunding or media attention, is cautioned against as it can increase perceived value and ransom demands by kidnappers. High profile often equates to high worth for kidnappers, irrespective of the actual financial capability of the victims. Therefore, maintaining a low profile is crucial to successful negotiations and safe hostage recovery.
