An irrational, desperate, and crazed criminal comes into your place of work, drags you to a room, and holds you against your own free will; is this a hostage or non-hostage incident? How do you ensure your safety while being panicked and scared for your life? Is this considered a traumatic event? In order to answer these types questions we will analyze a real life incident that took place in 2007 involving long time criminal Jack Fitzmorris and victim Karen Zappitelli. On an April afternoon, Fitzmorris escaped from a hospital after overpowering a guard, stealing a uniform and revolver while holding some nurses and guards hostage, car jacked an individual, robbed two banks (Suspect in hostage case draws 35 years, 2008), and ultimately ended his spree when he broke into an accounting business and took the office manager Karen Zappitelli hostage (Associated Press, 2011).
