Still Planning Her Escape
Despite authorities continuously bringing her back home, Elisabeth didn’t give up hope that one day she would be free from her father’s clutches. At the age of 15, she began waitress training at a rest stop on Rosenberger highway. During her instruction, she and a few of the other girls were able to sleep in a dormitory on site. Supposedly this was the first time in a very long time that she actually felt safe. But in January of 1983, she decided to try her luck at running away again, but after 3 weeks, she was returned home, and into the welcoming embrace of her parents once again.
