Well, I'd say that if any information comes out definitively to say
otherwise, or if there's any actual controversy about it, we could
try something different.  The thing I like about 'kidnap victim' as
a disambiguator is that it *instantly* disambiguates -- everyone will
know exactly who we mean.

But those are meaningless, so if you got the page title in a search
result or whatever, you'd not know to click on it.
