No apologies for them. No sidetracking. No deflections. No whitewashing. No excuses. No forgiveness.

Traffic accidents? Unlawful trespassing? Drug overdoses? Botched plastic surgeries?

It sounds like they ended up dead for some unknown and unforeseen reasons.

Let us all be clear on this: 8 of the 33 hostages who are slated for release have been murdered by their kidnappers prior to their negotiated release.

Let this sink in.
