On March 24, 2020, FBI Seattle and our Legal Attaché Office
in Mexico City recovered an Adams County girl, who had been missing for nearly
two years. Acting on a tip, FBI agents were able to positively identify the
girl who was in rural Mexico eight hours outside of Mexico City, and bring her
home.
“Too many times we see situations like these end in tragedy
or with no answers. Happily in this case, we were able to bring her home,
thanks to the quick actions of our agents and our partners at the Othello
Police Department and the Mexican Federal Police.” said FBI Seattle Special
Agent in Charge Raymond Duda.
According to the National Center for Missing and Exploited
Children, the girl went missing in June 2018 when she was 14 years old. It was
believed she may be in Mexico, but she had not been seen since disappearing
from Othello in central Washington two years ago.
The girl was flown back to the United States, arriving in
Spokane late Tuesday night where she was reunited with her family.
