She Vanished For 9 Days _ Then They Looked In Her Bed_ 3 Solved Missing Persons Cases

In one of Mexico's most baffling cases, four-year-old Paulette Gebara Farah vanished from her home on March 22, 2010, sparking a massive nine-day search. Despite extensive media coverage and an investigation that swept through her family home, her body remained undiscovered until a putrid smell led officers to her bedroom. There, she was found wedged between her mattress and the foot of her bed, wrapped in blankets, where she had lain for over a week while police searched. The coroner ruled her death accidental asphyxiation, but the investigation was riddled with inconsistencies and public outrage. Her parents were briefly detained and accused, though never charged. The case has haunted Mexico for over a decade.
