After five weeks on the run, a Tennessee teacher who kidnapped and fled with a 15-year-old student has been arrested in California, authorities said Thursday. The student, Elizabeth Thomas, was found safe, the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation tweeted Thursday. But the girl has not been able to speak with her family yet because she is in "too remote" of a location to do so, Thomas family attorney Jason Whatley said.

Tad Cummins, 50, fled with Elizabeth from their small town of Culleoka, Tennessee, on March 13. They disappeared a few weeks after a student reported seeing Cummins and Elizabeth kissing in a classroom.
Cummins faces charges of sexual contact with a minor and aggravated kidnapping, the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation said last month. He was added to the state's most wanted list.

Awesome. As much as I tried to avoid this line of thinking, I did not have high hopes that they would find her alive in well. Glad she is safe and he was caught.

Now my phone will stop getting Amber alerts about a goddamn silver Nissan Rogue. Glad the girl is safe now.

I assumed this would either end up like this, or with them both killing themselves (or murder suicide).
Obviously there is something wrong with this dude, but he never seemed like the random kidnap and murder type. More the "somehow pathetically thinks he found love with a 15 year old" type.

Didn't he have kids and a wife? Even grandkids? I can't remember, they've been on the road for like two months it seems like.

Something like that. And she (I think) had been abused by her family.
It's a weird story, because the media and police understandably want to point out that this dude is preying on her and that this isn't an "even" relationship. Which is true. But I won't be surprised if we learn this guy had always been a pretty nice person, who started looking out for this girl, and then things went totally off the rails.

There is something wrong with her family as well. I heard that her family is the reason she ran. Supposedly they are abusive. Mentally/Physically/Sexually

Is it kidnapping if she ran off with him willingly?
Don't get me wrong. He is scum, but if she went willingly does she have zero accountability?

Because she is a minor, yes.

She told her sister "if I'm not back by 6, call the police because It means I've been kidnapped"
