“Adopted for Three Decades, He Discovers Shocking Truth: His Image Linked to a Decades-Old Missing Persons Case!”
Security said that a woman matching the description had been seen leaving the facility at 3:30 am but wasn’t with a child. It was officially the first case of a baby abduction from a New York hospital.
She Grew Up In A Lie
Carlina wouldn’t be found by her biological parents until 23 years later. She was living as Nejdra Nance in Connecticut just 45 miles from where her parents lived.
She lived with a woman named Ann Pettaway. By the time that Carlina was a teenager, she began to become suspicious that Pettaway wasn’t her biological mom. After a little dispute about forging documents, like a birth certificate so that White could get health insurance, she asked Pettaway if she was actually her mom.
She Made A Startling Discovery
Pettaway broke down and said that she wasn’t. Carlina was told that she was abandoned by drug addict parents, which piqued White’s curiosity even more. She went to the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children website and found images of the kidnapped Carlina (herself) who looked a lot like her.
Carlina called the center’s hotline and was able to contact her birth parents. At this point, she was 23 years old and very happy to be reunited with her family.
Pettway Was Sentenced
After the confirmation that Nejdra Nance was actually Carlina White, the FBI started looking for Ann Pettway. She ended up turning herself into the FBI in 2011 after she had made arrangements for her biological son to be taken care of.
