This case is *solved*

In 2014, a social worker attempted to make contact with a doctor in a homeless shelter where a little girl named Relisha Rudd lived with her family. The doctor claimed to be treating Relisha for an unspecified neurological condition that caused her to miss a lot of school. But when the social worker arrived at the homeless shelter, he learned this “doctor” was actually a janitor at the shelter and Relisha’s mother couldn’t remember the last time she saw her daughter.

If you have any information relating to the Relisha Rudd case, call D.C.'s Metropolitan Police Department at DC Police at 202-265-9100 or NCMEC at 1-800-THE-LOST.

This case is *unsolved*
