Plate Number 86


Type: Gallery Image | Not Vetted



Todd is showing taking a child from a mother and holding it hostage with a gun. The child is in tears and reaching towards the mother. The mother is clearly shocked and at a loss for what to do. They were taken by surprise as indicated by the laundry hanging in the background, in addition to the basket of laundry that has either already been dried or was also going to be hung up. The fear portrayed in this image from the mother and child, coupled with the menacing glare from Todd capture how far Todd is willing to go to achieve his ends.
