Jason Blum and Mark Wahlberg will produce the movie based off the true life crime story. I hadn't heard of this before. Apparently it was published last April.
TEXT:
Stolen Kids, published April 28, told of a group of young women and men attending the prestigious liberal arts college of Sarah Lawrence who found themselves in the orbit of a charming but manipulative father of one of their classmates.
In the lengthy piece, the man, named Larry Ray, was released from prison and promptly moved into the dorm of his daughter, cooking fancy steak dinners and regaling students with stories of his work being a CIA operative while extolling the virtues of a Marine life. But what was supposed to be a crashing in the common room for a few days led to Ray taking charge of the kids’ lives and then whisking them away to a private apartment in New York for a summer.
The article revealed the dark side of Ray, who saw his various connections to New York’s political scene (Rudy Giuliani is name-checked several times) fizzle in the wake of securities fraud and domestic abuse charges, things he blamed on people out to get him. Only his daughter, a student at Sarah Lawrence, stood by his side.
Ray turned kids against parents, inserted himself physically into their sex lives and abused them. But none turned against him, even praising how he turned their lives around in several court cases.
The article closes with a couple of students escaping the man’s mental shackles even as others’ lives had been turned upside down.
