Adopted Child Goes MISSING: Are Parents Involved?
from Mysteries and Histories · host Georgia Marie
On a November night in 2007, 12‑year‑old Jaliek Rainwalker vanished from upstate New York and was never seen again. He was officially reported missing after a supposed overnight stay with his adoptive father, but from the beginning, timelines, stories, and behaviour around the case didn’t quite add up. Years later, there’s still no body, no confirmed crime scene, and no charges, just a boy frozen in time on missing posters and a haunting question hanging over his last known hours: did Jaliek run away, or did someone make sure he never came home?
