Speaker 2: She was last seen hitchhiking to Madison and boarding a

53
00:03:19,840 --> 00:03:23,960

54
00:03:24,440 --> 00:03:27,840

00:03:47,440 --> 00:03:50,080
Speaker 2: A deputy in that jurisdiction knocked on the door, and

61
00:03:50,200 --> 00:03:54,320
Speaker 2: minutes later Hanson received a call. It was Bacheberg, now

62
00:03:54,360 --> 00:03:58,280
Speaker 2: eighty two. She confirmed her identity and explained she left voluntarily,

63
00:03:58,640 --> 00:04:01,920

00:04:04,720 --> 00:04:08,560
Speaker 2: life and avoiding contact with her past. Backberg declined to

66
00:04:08,600 --> 00:04:11,960
Speaker 2: reveal much about her life since leaving Wisconsin, but confirmed

67
00:04:12,000 --> 00:04:14,760
Speaker 2: she is happy and safe. While she has not decided

68
00:04:14,800 --> 00:04:17,800
Speaker 2: whether to reconnect with family, she now has the option

69
00:04:18,080 --> 00:04:20,800
