"After being crowned Miss Georgia in 2007," photographer Alec Soth writes, "Nino Likuchova was stripped of her title after it was discovered that she was married. But according to Likuchova, she was forced into the marriage, and it lasted only four days: 'He and his friends kidnapped me from my town, kept me locked up and threatened me with guns. These were the most terrible days of my life.' "
