- Authorities found her when they were searching Kohlhepp's 95-acre property

A 30-year-old woman was locked inside a padlocked box, 'chained up like a dog' for two months when she was discovered and released in November.
At the time of her rescue, Kala Brown and her boyfriend Charlie Carver had been missing for two months from their home in Spartanburg, South Carolina.
Now, in her first public interview since her dramatic rescue, Brown plans to say later this month on 'Dr Phil' that her captor did not break her.

In the two-part Dr Phil episode, to air February 13 and 14, Brown is expected to share details of the two months being held captive and witnessing her boyfriend's brutal murder.
'The main thing was we found her alive' Spartanburg County Sheriff Chuck Wright told the Post and Courier.
For two months Brown lived inside the shipping container, held prisoner by Kohlhepp, a man who was at one time Brown's boss.
The former real estate agent killed four people at a Spartanburg County motorcycle shop in 2003, and three others at his home in 2015, one of those Charlie Carver. Brown has also filed a personal injury lawsuit against Kohlhepp (pictured in his mug shot and being transported into court by police), and Carver's estate has filed a wrongful death lawsuit, according to the Post and Courier
He is being charged with killing seven people, according to authorities.
