News Article 3/15

http://usnews.msnbc.msn.com/_news/2012/03/14/10692052-boy-kidnapped-eight-years-ago-to-be-reunited-with-his-mother
An 8-month-old boy from Houston was kidnapped by his babysitter back in 2004. Investigations and searches continued for 2 years and the case was finally closed in 2006 without being able to find them. Due to a neglect report filed, police were able to find the babysitter and eventually the boy. The boy is being reunited with his mother in Houston pending a DNA check.

It is nice that some of the horrible stories actually wind up with happy endings. So many times, kidnappings result in horrific endings, both for the families and the children. This was just by chance that the babysitter was found. It makes you think what if a neglect report had not been filed. Would the child ever have been found?
