This Thanksgiving marked a miraculous moment for a California family as a man missing since 1999 was found alive after a photo in an online article led his sister to him. The emotional reunion follows 25 years of searching, during which his disappearance left family and authorities without any traces to pursue.
The man's sister expressed her joy, stating, 'All this time I had been looking for unidentified remains. I was delighted to find him alive!' Her relentless search had transitioned into a quest for closure, but instead led to a remarkable discovery that rekindled hope.
Identified as a nonverbal man found in a hospital after being found in South Los Angeles earlier this year, his identity was confirmed through fingerprinting, reuniting him with his family after a desperate 25-year search.
Only after a request for assistance by authorities in a May USA Today article, which detailed the man's condition, did the sister make the connection, highlighting the significance of public awareness in resolving long-standing missing person cases.
