My wife and I watched an interesting movie over the weekend. It was the true story of Ashley Smith, a waitress and single mom on the verge of losing her daughter due to a nasty drug addiction, and her fateful encounter with escaped criminal who held Smith hostage in her own apartment after breaking out of a courthouse jail and killing four people, generated major headlines back in 2005.
Smith went on to recount the experience in her memoir, “Unlikely Angel,” crediting Rick Warren’s inspirational bestseller “The Purpose Driven Life” as playing the pivotal role in her ultimate escape and ability to get Nichols to turn himself in to the law. The real Ashely Smith went on the Oprah show and Rick Warren showed up, as shown in the 45 second video clip.
