skeptics, this story hadn t smelled right from the start. and denise s sudden reappearance did nothing to change that. she s alive. she s well. and they found her. that was great. but there was still something funny going on because no one had the answers. reporter: for one thing, denise turned up in huntington beach, 400 south of vallejo and also her hometown. she was dropped off by her mom s house. she wasn t released out of state. she wasn t released in the desert. she wasn t released in the middle of california. where did she show up? right near her parents house. that seemed too convenient. reporter: another thing, the ransom the kidnappers had demanded had never been paid. denise told the same story about the swim gaggoggles, the nyquil the electric shock.
