Woman Missing For 52 Years Turns Up
This story may sound weird, but it is true. This woman suddenly disappeared from her husband's home in 1960 and she was 25 and reappeared at the age of 77. below is how Metro news reported the story;
A mother who went missing in the early 1960s at the age of 25 has turned up, alive and well, 52 years on with a new family living in the Yukon.
Lucy Johnson, who is now 77 years old, disappeared from her home in Surrey, British Columbia, in September 1961 and was never found, despite a police missing persons investigation – and even a murder probe into her husband.
Marvin Johnson, who died in the late 1990s, was suspected of killing Mrs Johnson and disposing of her body in their back garden, which was fully excavated during the investigation.
However, the case was dropped when no evidence could be found and the missing persons trail went cold.
In a remarkable twist, Mrs Johnson – who now has a lot of explaining to do – was discovered after her daughter Linda placed an advert in a local newspaper and the mysterious case of her disappearance was highlighted by Canadian police more than half a century on.
Linda then received a call from another mystery women, claiming to be her step-sister, telling her that her mother was living in the Yukon, with a whole new family.
It still remains unclear what prompted Mrs Johnson to up and leave without a word.
‘The wheels were set in motion and it led to finding Lucy Johnson alive and well,’ said Royal Canadian Mounted Police corporal Bert Paquet.
