You make the donation to a "registered charity", not to SORBS. Michelle never sees a dime, nor does anyone else associated with SORBS.
You can still call it a ransom if you like, I won't even argue, but in fairness I thought it was useful to make that distinction.
In more fairness, last time I checked, all but one of the 'registered charities' asked to be removed from the SORBS list because it was doing them more harm than good.
Interpretation of these facts is left up to the reader, I am not making any judgements.
