Kidnap & Ransom Resolution‘K&R’ is a particularly violent criminal act, as the objects of kidnappings are frequently chosen specifically because they are defenseless and vulnerable, and are connected to others with the means to pay a ransom. Business executives, parents, and children are favorite targets. Virtually anyone or anything of value may be the object of a kidnapping and ransom scheme. Kidnapping is on the rise worldwide, and particularly in those countries with a history of this type of crime. Unfortunately, many kidnappers are not professionals in such endeavors, and therefore the associated risk of harm to the hostage can be great. Even when dealing with professional kidnappers, the risk of abuse to the hostage remains high. TridentCMG’s professional kidnap negotiators can help to minimize that risk by using their years of experience to quickly come to terms with the kidnappers very early in the event sequence and establish boundaries for payment of the ransom that help to ensure reasonable treatment of the victim in captivity.
