30 People Share What Really Happened To People Who Just Disappeared My best friend vanished on her way to her early morning work shift several years ago. Her van was found abandoned in a field, and she never was found despite the massive search response, snd the fact her family were all cops. There’s also been some rumors about her stepmother interfering with evidence, but aside from that, it’s been radio silent. The FBI was involved, last I heard.

Three days after she vanished, I had a dream about her. She said goodbye to me and told me that she loved me, and since then, I’ve known in my heart she’s dead.

I miss you, Sara.

30 People Share What Really Happened To People Who Just Disappeared I had a friend go missing at 17 years old. She took a walk with her dog and her dog made it home but she vanished seemingly without a trace. There was a massive search for weeks, her picture made it to national news channels with video of her parents crying and begging for information.

The dark truth was that her parents were quiverful fundamental Christians in the worst way and she was the oldest daughter. She couldn't live as a parentified slave anymore so she ran away. Her father was always extremely controlling and I don't fault her at all for vanishing in the way she did. She got caught awhile later because she logged on to Facebook at a public library.

As far as I know, she got emancipated and as she brought so much "public shame" to her parents, I expect they didn't want her back. I never saw her again and I hope she's out there living her best life.

According to data collected by the World Population Review, globally, kidnapping is the most common reason for missing person reports. Most often, the victims are children under six. Very often, the perpetrators are the kids’ parents who don’t have custody. In many cases, the child is recovered safely.

Due to the size of the United States population, as well as the systems in place to report disappearances, the country has the highest number of missing person reports on the planet. In the US, 2.3k children are reported missing every single day.

30 People Share What Really Happened To People Who Just Disappeared My cousin (who I barely knew) disappeared along with his car, leaving behind a large blood stain in his apartment. Right from the start his roommates were suspects but several years passed and his body was still missing. The case was featured on unsolved mysteries or America's most wanted or one of those and a tip came in giving the location of his car in a nearby river. His body was found in the trunk, and the roommates confessed and went to prison.

30 People Share What Really Happened To People Who Just Disappeared When I was a kid a friend of mine was kidnapped by his dad. The mom got custody and the dad just showed up one day and took him. It was devastating for everyone, especially the mom and brother (yeah idk why he only took one kid). After about 5 years of police investigations and the mom having to change her legal name and go into hiding, they finally found him and got him back home. He was safe, but he was really quiet for a few years after he got back. I have no idea what happened during that time. What I do know is that he seems incredibly well adjusted now and last I heard he's happily married.

Aside from kidnapping (whether due to personal motives, for ransom, human trafficking, or due to political reasons), other reasons why someone might go missing include forced disappearance, going missing in action, voluntary disappearance, and involuntary disappearance.

Forced disappearance is when criminals or corrupt government agents abduct you. Those who go missing in action are usually either in the military or disappear during civil unrest. Voluntary disappearance means that someone chooses to run away, whether to escape a bad situation at home, to get away from their overwhelming debts, or to hide from either law enforcement or criminals.

Meanwhile, involuntary disappearance usually means that someone may go missing due to their poor mental health or when they suffer an accident alone and away from home.

30 People Share What Really Happened To People Who Just Disappeared My best friend.

She was abandoned by her mother when we were in middle school, then her previously absent father reappeared and suddenly took her away. Nobody was able to get into contact or find their location. Basically disappeared into thin ait.

We reunited when we were 21. My friend had been in an abusive situation for many years. When she escaped, she had to lay low until she was sure she was safe and wouldn't be found. Only then could she reach out to me. .

In the US, over 521.7k people were reported missing in 2021. More than 93.7k of them were still actively missing at the start of 2022.

On the other side of the globe in India, more than 2.1k people go missing every day. This amounts to around 88 women, children, and men missing every hour.

In the United Kingdom, around 180k people disappear every year. However, the real number is thought to be significantly higher, as 353k missing person files are opened every year. 80% of these cases in the UK involve missing children. Most are found within 24 hours of the report being filed.

30 People Share What Really Happened To People Who Just Disappeared My stepsister went missing about a year after my stepdad married my mom. We had just moved into our new house a couple states away from where I grew up and I didn’t know anybody. My stepsister was three years older and helped me make friends at school.

We lived about a mile from school and walked there and back a couple days a week when my mom had to go to work early.

One day I walked back home from school alone because my stepsister had basketball practice. There had been some robberies in the area so my mom had us carry pepper spray with us, and I remember feeling weird that day.

I got home fine, and a few hours later, we hadn’t heard from my stepsister, so my stepdad called the basketball coach to see if practice went late (we didn’t have phones).

The coach said my stepsister had left the school a couple hours before.

A few months later, after a lot of searching, her body was found in the woods near the school. There was pepper spray residue all over her skin.

They never caught the person who did it, but she was killed with the rock the police found near her body.

That poor helpless child was yanked, screaming, off her bike in front of her grandmother's house. Now many children's safety classes teach kids to tightly hang on to their bike if somebody approaches them, and not to let go. Very difficult to drag a kid and a bicycle. Hopefully buys the child time for someone to hear their screams and intervene. May Amber rest in peace and may her family have some comfort knowing that this horrific tragedy changed our world to help better safeguard other children.

30 People Share What Really Happened To People Who Just Disappeared When my cousin and her husband (and kids) went on a vacation to Curaçao (around 35C that time of year) a few years ago. The area is covered in thick jungle, and it was made clear to everyone who went there that you ***needed*** (or was required) to stay on the paths. He decided to go for an evening stroll while the rest stayed at their cabin. Took a one liter bottle of water and his phone with him (nearly no reception as soon as you walked into the bush), some gum and went off path anyway (because he probably got curious.) Search and rescue were busy doing their searches (along with volunteers) around a large area, and he was found five days after he went missing about two kilometers from where he went off path. He died from a heat induced heart attack, but was probably already completely unconscious before that happened due to dehydration. He was 47.

Before she went missing, she had starved her dog to within a week of its death. She had physically, verbally, financially and emotionally abused her partner, including starvation, deliberate sleep deprivation, no access to shower or bath, withholding access to toilet. The emotional abuse was the worst. On behalf of her partner I got a restraining order on her and she vanished, with her dog, last seen letting her partner's tyres down. No doubt she's found another partner to abuse. Not everyone who goes missing is an angel.

He went to prison and claimed he was innocent, but he was also a suspect in another abduction. Really scary.

Someone I know from school back in 2011 went missing in 2013 in Vegas. His remains were found but they could not identify him until a couple years ago. The s****y police and our (now) Governor have been gaslighting his mom saying he left on his own accord. There is evidence of his SO at the time having something to do with it, but nothing has been done. She continuously changes her story, he and her mom both lied about seeing him at a mall, after his remains were found, and a lot of other stuff that never added up. He has a son that he absolutely adored and would have done anything for so he wouldn't have just left.

Girl I went to high school with disappeared her first semester at college, in Virginia USA. They found her body about two months later, behind a barn, after enough pressure on the last person to see her alive (left with him from a bar) to make him confess and show them the "resting place". He's In jail for life. Her name was Taylor Beahl (not sure on spelling, pronounced 'Beel') for anyone wanting to google

Noticeably absent from this list are adult people who abandoned toxic parents. That's not surprising since narcissists live for control, and they don't want the world to see them not controlling their victims - or trying to recapture them. The only case similar to this was the gay man escaping from a violent and bigoted society. If you don't understand why he would dump "family", then you have privilege.

I was born in Russia, Siberia. Me and familly moved out to my dad country when I was 2. I had a cousin from mom side. When I was 9, we went to visit them, only time in my life. Spend wonderfull summer playing with my cousin, and her friends I met. When I was 15 or 16, she dissapeared. They found her 2 months later, dead and raped before that. It happens a lot in that part of that country. Im so glad my and my sister didnt grow up there. Beloved cousin, please, rest in peace

Around 2000, a woman who lived on my street. She didn't come home from work one day. Her car was found at a Walmart a few days later. They found her body about 3 years later in a remote area of a former naval base. No one was ever arrested. My grandmother became close to her husband and her son. They spent a lot of time with our family when she was missing. They have a suspect but not enough evidence.

A very good friend of mine and my husband's left abruptly for California (from PA) probably to hide out from people he owed money to. He did a lot of substances, and was bipolar/manic most of the time, but was the kindest, most loving, happiest person to be around. Nobody's heard from him since. He was possibly spotted in a homeless camp once about 8 years ago, I think? We miss ya, bro, my birthday buddy, the craziest person I've ever met. Hope you found some peace somewhere.

I love hiking. It's only dangerous if you're stupid.

True, like not every dead person deserves to be honored.
