The ordeal of Natascha Kampusch: she was kidnapped for more than eight years, escaped and now she is harassed on the Internet.

On August 23, 2006, an 18-year-old girl appeared in front of an Austrian police station to declare that she was in captivity in the basement of a single-family house on the outskirts of Vienna for 8 years and half. In total, he had spent 3,096 days locked against his will in a room of 5 square meters without windows, after a man. I kidnapped her when I was 10 years olds returning from school. The predator turned out to be a former Siemens technician, Wolfgang Přiklopil, 36, and his victim, Natascha Kampusch, the girl who had been searched was constantly thinking that she had fallen into a network of pedophiles. Přiklopil, a misogynist according to his colleagues, He was killed while jumping on the railway the same day, she escaped.

The history of Kampusch moved the planet. During the last stage of her captivity, Přiklopil let her go out into the garden of the house and, at one point, took advantage of the dismissal of a man while she was washing her car to flee. and hitting a neighborhood neighbor who took her to the police. The 18-year-old girl decided not to remain anonymous and thus control the story of her drama. From the first moment, he chose to tell the press his state of captivity and make visible everything that had happened to him. He offered a very popular television interview two weeks after his release, published a book (3096 days) and sold the rights of his story for a movie.

Thirteen years later, at the age of 31, Kampusch publishes a new book, Cyberneider: diskriminierung im Internet (Cyberacoso: discrimination on the Internet), where he tells of the second hell that was waiting for him after escaping his predator: he has been threatened and interrogated for years. The victim of this atrocity who stole her childhood and adolescence, an experience that would mark her forever, denounces now that to have a cyberbullying campaign that the police ignored and this caused a depression that led her to lock up again, this time at her home.

"You should have stayed in the basement where they locked you up", is only one example of the humiliations and threats that Kampusch has received unabated over these years. In an interview with the weekly BildKampusch says that hostility and harassment are constant since he left this basement. The passivity of the institutions This led to a process of double victimization. Not only was she constantly veiled, but she must also feel ashamed to denounce him: "I complained a lot, but nothing happened because the information indicated that I was in a gray area. Someone was telling me: "Morite", the police saw this as a suggestion and not as a direct threat. At one point, I got fed up. "

In addition to insults, Kampusch has endured the discredit of his own story by anonymous users on the Internet, who wonder why he did not escape to the basement, doubting the relationship of abuse and power that the predator exerted on him. "Bullying online It was part of my routine. There were days when he did not leave his house because everything was too difficult, "he reveals in the interview, his desire is to make his voice heard to denounce the consequences of these intimidating practices on the community. Web "I do not want to hide. I never wanted it. Therefore, in my book, I want to focus on this issue and tell people how they feel when they are victims of cyberbullying. "

Getting rid of the past is not easy either. After the suicide of his abductor, he inherited the house where he was held prisoner. Kampusch says he's trying to give it to a group of refugees, but residents of the area and the mayor are against it. Again What to pay the bills of electricity, water and tariffs of the house in which she was locked up against her will for eight and a half years.

After being tried against his will by a sexual predator, Kampusch is now discredited and the victim of attacks on the Web against the passivity of the institutions that were supposed to ensure their safety. His harassers do not forgive him for leaving this unwritten and almost sacramental form of the exemplary victim. Natascha rejected from the first moment of submission, shame and social ostracism Women victims of sexual crimes are supposed to surrender, but the (patriarchal) price they pay is to see how their own abuses are questioned or to be morally embarrassed for years to have won money with a book or movie story

Double victimization is the big question. Victims continue to pay for crimes that others have committed on their bodies and are stuck in front of a society that interrogates and harasses them again. Face to denounce, put the body and the face to break the "taboo silenced" defended by Virginie Despentes Theory of King Kong or "the magic contract" mentioned by Joan Didion in Sentimental trips, always expensive. Journalist and essayist Rebecca Traister speaks again New York Magazine some of these consequences in a report where he contacted those who had reported abuses months after doing the # MeToo move.

Women who have changed their last name, who do not feel safe at work or who, directly, say they do not report it again for their personal consequences. "Women who have taken a step forward have not been received as heroines who have suffered losses, have been degraded and punished. reporting risks, which in some way reproduces the risks of harassment in itself with pressure, humiliation or the possibility that the personal professional history is spoiled by the denunciation, "said Traister, 13 years ago, Natascha Kampusch decided to show his face and your story, now publish a book to remind us the double hell that women like her must endure the simple act of doing it.
