The problem is that often the kidnappers are related to the family or a family member is guilty and it re-enforces these random judgements. I would be willing to bet that you can't blindly pick out guilty and not guilty kidnappers/murdrers from the press conferences asking for their kids back. As such it is just insulting to those who really did just suffer a tragic loss.

Yeah grief (or whatever you would call it in this situation) is a weird thing, and it's different for different people. Completely different situation from this obviously, but when my dad died, things were really weird. Between the moments of grief I would still play video games and enjoy myself, or watch sitcoms on TV and laugh. And it felt weird, because I didn't know if it was right for me to do this.
There's no way to know what's going on internally in these situations. Probably best not to make assumptions on guilt based on their expressions. They're likely just dying inside.
