"YOUR NAME IS MICHELLE NEWTON" — Truth Revealed After 42 Years

from Criminally Obsessed · host Criminally Obsessed

What if you found out that you aren’t who you think you are... and you’ve been missing for 42 years?! That’s what happened to Michelle Newton. She’d always felt like there was something not quite right about her life and in fact, at one point, a relative joked that “you’re probably on a milk carton somewhere.” Michelle and her mom moved away from home when she was three, leaving everyone behind and then her mom changed their identities. 66-year-old Debra Newton was arrested in Florida on November 24th. In a now viral video, a neighbor can be heard teasing “Sharon” that the police are coming for her. Emotional at times, Michelle reveals her feelings about her mother, father and new extended family to Investigative Reporter Anne Emerson... and how her father is feeling about her mother now that he finally found and reconnected with his daughter.
