The Runaway Bride



The case of Jennifer Carol Wilbanks, the "runaway bride" made national headlines in 2005. But you might have been too young to appreciate the story at the time, or you didn't keep up with it, and besides all that, it took a long time for all the details to come out. Wilbanks got cold feet before her wedding to John Mason, but instead of calling off the wedding, she faked a story about being kidnapped. Maybe she didn't realize that the entire nation would be mobilized into saving her. But what ultimately happened? Weird History has the whole story for us.

The story turns out to not be anything worth wasting 11 minutes on, no big revelations or incidents beyond the initial incident.

But I want to say, I really, REALLY hate this guy who narrates. More than once I've turned off the video once I heard his sniveling voice with his annoying lame snarks. This one I listened to almost to the end and I greatly regret it.
