i'm ann curry. you may remember our story about a girl abducted at age four and raised by her kidnapper. for the next four decades she searched for her family, her name, herself. when we first ran this story, it had an extraordinary ending. but turns out that ending was just the beginning. here is keith morrison. ♪ >> here is where the story began, with the mother of a teenage daughter, with a woman who had spent most of her life trying to figure out who she was, what was her name, where did she come from? like living without a floor beneath you, not to know those things. so we told her story, you might have seen it just a few months ago. her long search, her discovery of what felt like truth. but as you're going to find out now, real truth can be elusive, it can hide. and tonight, will finally emerge, amazing and bizarre. >> oh, my god! >> but at the beginning, all she had was a memory. >> a twin canopy bed with pink ruffles around it. kind of waved over the top of it. >> it was dream like really.

when you look at all of this it seems like everybody got what they wanted the politicians got the curry favor with murdoch and he's very powerful specially in the u.k. he can call an election one way or another newspapers and television they've got stories they like because well even though he's through the legal means they entertain their audiences and the audiences liked it to the police might have been involved in bribery but then again they might have gotten tips of information that might have led to a person a prosecution so it's a very kind of odd arrangement everybody seemed to have gotten something out of it but nonetheless it was quite you legal i mean how do you look at that i mean is that why it went on for so long if the allegations are true well you just have to. well you just have to look at the relationship involving the media and government and law enforcement in london it is a very unusual relationship and the environment in london for the tabloids especially is very aggressive viciously competitive and unfortunately in this case it crossed over into line of illegality
