I’ve been the face on a missing poster. It’s how I was rescued. The man who kidnapped me live-streamed himself abusing me and one of the viewers reported it. He recognized my face from the @missingkids poster that was shared around the world.

On this same day, in 1979, 6-year-old Etan Patz, disappeared on his way to school. Though his body has not yet been found, it’s suspected that he was murdered the same day he was kidnapped.

His face was also one of the first to be on the milk cartons.
