  8. Pulido: Right, right, right • UCE-1: And you know, you, you • Pulido:: They way I've, I've already explained it (laughing) I think they are going to take it more from you because i've already explained it to them in a way that they understand what they have to lose, and that was the issue with the third badge I told, I told you about. The way I'm presenting this is that yeah you're my family, but as family does, family sticks to their own. And if something goes bad, and they're at fault somebody is going to pay, either with their life, or their children's lives, and as soon as they hear that, they're like, okay, they back off. The only ones that step forward are the ones that I trust. • UCE-1: All right, all right. • Pulido:: These two stepped forward, the other one was like 'oh wait minute, my children' that was all I needed to hear. • UCE-1: Okay, all right. • Pulido:: If you don't want to put up your children, then you have to go.

In this case, the victims became emotionally attached to their victimizers, and even defended their captors after they were freed from their six-day ordeal. The term "Stockholm Syndrome" was coined by the criminologist and psychiatrist Nils Bejerot, who assisted the police during the robbery, and referred to the syndrome in a news broadcast
