Kidnapped Teen Finds Self On The Internet
from the I'm-a-missing-kid? dept
A 17-year-old who had been kidnapped from his father (who had full custody) by his mother at the age of 3, was shocked to find his own picture online and discover that he was a missing kid. It's unclear how he recognized his own picture, though, my only guess is that the picture was a baby picture which his mother had a copy of as well. The mother has now been arrested, and the teen is trying to figure out what this all means. That has got to be quite a shock to the system.
Thank you for reading this Techdirt post. With so many things competing for everyone’s attention these days, we really appreciate you giving us your time. We work hard every day to put quality content out there for our community.
Techdirt is one of the few remaining truly independent media outlets. We do not have a giant corporation behind us, and we rely heavily on our community to support us, in an age when advertisers are increasingly uninterested in sponsoring small, independent sites — especially a site like ours that is unwilling to pull punches in its reporting and analysis.
While other websites have resorted to paywalls, registration requirements, and increasingly annoying/intrusive advertising, we have always kept Techdirt open and available to anyone. But in order to continue doing so, we need your support. We offer a variety of ways for our readers to support us, from direct donations to special subscriptions and cool merchandise — and every little bit helps. Thank you.
