This article is about the kidnapping of Carlina White. Carlina Renae White was born July 15, 1987 and was also known as Nejdra “Netty” Nance. Carlina White was a 23 year old US American citizen who had solved her own kidnapping case at the age of 23. This abduction was known to represent the longest known gap in a non –parental abduction where the victim was returned back to their parents. The story begins when Carlina was just 19 days old when her parents Carl Tyson and Joy white had taken Carlina to the hospital due to her having high fever on August 4, 1987. Unfortunately, they realized that Carlina had swallowed fluid during her delivery and had developed an infection. A woman had overseen Carlina while she was in the hospital however; she was not a hospital employee. This mysterious lady seemed to be normal and had then comforted the parents of Carlina three weeks before the abduction. Baby Carlina disappeared early one morning while the shifts were changing. Unfortunately, the cameras in the hospital where not operating, so the police had nothing to go on but a description from Joy and Carl. The baby was receiving antibiotics when the IV line was cut and she was abducted. One of the hospital guards said that she did recognize the same lady that Joy and Carl described; however, there was no baby with her. The police assumed that the baby could well have been hidden in her smock. This case became the first well known infant abduction from the New York hospital. The city of New York offered a $10,000 cash reward for the return of Carlina. The parents Joy and Carl quickly filed a 100 million dollar suit against the hospital in 1989, and received a 750,000 settlement in 1992. Carlina was raised by Annugetta Pettway in Bridgeport, Connecticut as Nejdra Nance. Throughout the years Carlina grew suspicious because she had no social security card and a forged birth certificate by her assumed mother Annugetta. Carlina also…

Progress was not made until police continuously raided local establishments and disrupted criminal activity. The bosses of the criminal underworld banded together to assist in catching Beckert…
Adam Walsh was a young boy whose life got cut short at the age of 6. Adams parent’s names are Reve and John Walsh. “Adam was abducted from Sears in Hollywood, Florida on July 27th, 1981.”( Web article on msnbc.com) After this incident a lot changed when it came to finding children and John later became famous as being the host of the show “Americas Most Wanted”. Adam went to Sears with his mom that day. They were going to the store to shop for lamps.” The store was approximately one mile from their home. They parked where they always did, and walked in the store holding hands. They went into the North entrance which put them in the toy department. Right in the middle of the toys was the big attraction: a television monitor displaying computer video games. They were brand new back then. Several children were playing with the game, and Adam asked if he could stay and play also. Reve said okay and told him to stay there until she returned from the lamp department. The lamps were about 75 feet away -- out of sight, but not very far. The lamps were out of stock, so Reve left her name and number. She was gone about seven minutes.” (web site: Rosen, 2011, Child search) When she returned he was no longer at the video game in fact none of the children where there and the video game was silent. She had only been gone a total of maybe 10 minutes. Reve began walking down many aisles calling out Adam’s name. She saw a boy that had the same hat on as Adam and asked him if he had seen a boy with the same hat as him on. The child told her he had and pointed to the west exit door. Reve was positive that Adam would not go out the west door. She then asked the toy department clerk said she had not seen Adam. Reve asked everyone she came across but they all said no. She then went back to the clerks to see if she could get her to call the police. The clerk said “Oh, well, he probably just wandered off. I 'll bet he went looking for you.

Come quick! Patrick's dead!” “He’s lying on the floor and i think he’s dead.” These two quotes support my theme is that she's now calling the police and there going to start asking questions about how it happened, who do u think did it, and what could have hit him that hard that he was to die. As the police arrived they began to ask her where she was when her husband Patrick had been killed. She told him she had ran to the grocery store to make dinner for patrick and she told them what grocer she had gotten the food from. The police left to ask the grocer if she seemed to be acting weird but of course he said no. She had rehearsed what she was going to say to him so many times she sounded just perfectly normal. “...Acted quite normal.. Very cheerful...wanted to give him a good supper..peas..cheesecake..impossible that she…” but actually she did. She had killed her husband over him leaving her for another women. She assumed that if they were to find out that she had kill him that they wouldn't kill her while she was pregnant with his baby. “In fact, it would be a relief. On the other hand, what about the child? What were the laws about murderers with unborn children? Did they kill them both-mother and child? Or did they wait until the tenth month? What did they do?” As she asked herself these questions as what was going to happen to her unborn child after she killed…
Leon 's story did surprise me a bit. The ignorance of the mother, and the family for that matter, is absurd. Why/how would you leave an infant for most of the day alone in an apartment while you take your other son out on a walk? Wouldn 't you want to give both your children the same opportunities and ability to grow? I do not understand how the family or the husband did nothing while this was going on.…

Faintly, I hear footsteps awaken from nowhere. Now my heart is racing, as if it’s about to jump out from my skin. As I look towards the door, the footsteps come to a halt. A shadow emerges from the darkness, and the door creaks open. The ground pounds as the steel cap boots from the black clothed detective hit the floor. He has a cold blooded voice that sends a shiver running down my spine. He begins the meeting with ‘why’. ‘Why did you even think you could have the slightest chance of getting away with it’? Many thoughts flash through my mind as the question ‘why’ is brought up.…
