What a wild story. This isn't the type of thing you usually hear about happening in America, and when it does, the targets are usually wealthier Americans.

​

I've never considered who would be most valuable for me to kidnap and ransom; but I know for sure I wouldn't choose people who the news describes as two random "migrants" they kidnapped off a highway.

​

What are the odds the migrant couple happens to come from a family of incredible means in their home country? I would say pretty low.
