She was not reported missing for 25 years because her mother called the school Sheryl worked at and was told by someone she didn't want to come home. That's crazy though that no one reported her for so long. I wonder who the person was that told the mom this.

They did that to my father and after he was killed, the prison guard called my brother and he said not allowed to say this but he said he will they killed your dad and my brother figured this happened around December 25, 2010 - January 6, 2011. I don't know if my father was in population or not. But in my father's case, the guard told my brother that it happened in the elevator on the way to church or coming back from church, neither way it happened in the elevator.
I have access to all of andres court testimony case files and personal letters all though insane I believe that he was falsely convicted in an attempt by the leaving DA to close the case. If anyone out there would like info or has an info msg me here

I was just watching the Missing episode on Ethel Atwell, and when they are talking about the other cases Rand was suspected in, a Laura Rodriguez age 14 is mentioned. I can't find anything on Newspapers or online about her. Seems she was visually impaired and was missing 5 days at the time of the newspaper article shown. I wonder if she was found?
