What an amazing outcome, Kudos to the police work that must have gone into getting this result.

Really interested to hear a bit more about this, as it's an amazing outcome a few weeks down the track.

Also, I really hope the family (and the girl in particular) get all the support they need - especially around any trauma / mental health side of things. We don't know what happened to her during the time she was gone, but it could have a serious long term effect if it isn't handled well.

NO❗️ - why should we get pleasure out of someone else's pain and misery. The Azaria Chamberlain and Madeleine McCann cases were bad enough. The media feeding frenzy was horrific.

 

I'm just happy that this has had a relatively happy ending for the child and parents so why should they have to live through a dramatised and sensationalised rehash of such an awful period in their lives.





Whilst the difficult we can do immediately, the impossible takes a bit longer. However, miracles you will have to wait for.

Not going to lie, as a father of a young girl, I teared up a little when I heard the news and then did a happy dance.

 

What that family went through would have been awful!

 

 

 

So so glad shes home!
