A person who was a fan of a popular Netflix series played a crucial role in helping authorities find a girl from Illinois who had been missing for several years in North Carolina.
Cases involving children are always distressing to hear about, as children are among the most vulnerable members of society. It is unimaginable for most people to think of children being subjected to harm.
In most instances where children have been missing for an extended period, the outcomes are often not favorable. However, there was a fortunate turn of events when Kayla Unbehaun, who had been missing since 2017, was discovered in a North Carolina store. Reports suggest that she will soon be reunited with her father, thanks to the efforts of the person who recognized her from an episode of “Unsolved Mysteries” on Netflix.
Kayla’s disappearance occurred when she was nine years old and she was taken by her non-custodial mother. The discovery of Kayla was made possible by the observant store owner who had watched an episode featuring her on “Unsolved Mysteries.” The authorities were alerted, leading to the apprehension of Kayla’s mother.
Kayla’s father expressed his gratitude to law enforcement and everyone on social media who assisted in the case. He specifically mentioned the South Elgin Police Department, the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children, and the followers of the “Bring Kayla Home” Facebook page for their support. The successful resolution of this long-standing search for a missing child brought immense relief and joy to all involved.
