One of the men goes for her phone. The other grabs at her hands. Ozturk screams. Shock and fear ripple through her voice. Two masked women join them, tugging at her backpack, peeling the straps from her shoulders. “I’m going somewhere, I need to call someone,” she pleads. “We’re the police. Relax,” one of the men says in response.
They surround her. Then, one by one, they pull their neck gaiters up to cover their faces. “You don’t look like police,” a voice off screen says. “Why are you hiding your faces?” The questions continue, but the figures don’t respond. Instead, they cuff Ozturk, cross the street, and put her in an unmarked SUV. She is gone.
So somewhere in there I lost what you are suggesting would increase the likelihood of multiple people attempting to peacefully intervene to stop these abductions. Also, I find physchology writing to be hard to read. Not sure what they need to do to make these things more readable though. But even though the topic interests me, I just can’t seem to read a book on the subject.
