- Last year, Steve Carter, of Philadelphia, found a picture of himself on a missing children's website. CBS News correspondent Terrell Brown reports on Carter's journey to find out who he really is.
The longest missing child case in US history, solved by the missing child himself.
That's awesome👍

That’s horrifying. Just imagine, out of curiosity you go onto a missing child website and see yourself
"Mom! Look! In on a website! :D"
it would be fun, its like your life becomes a movie in a second
That was actually the plot for a shitty movie i saw
Barack Old Llama What movie?
Lollll. Tbh I think it's so scary if my non-existent child who will be born in like a decade or something goes missing. I feel sorry for the biological parents but Yh lol I can imagine myself beingsiler confused if I was on a missing-child website 😂
this dude is probably the only person that ever had an oppurtunity to say "I'm your long lost son from Hawaii" and not be lying

Guessing they misread what kitty said? I don't really know.
I'm just pleased that his adoptive parents are purely innocent in all of this, it would be awful to discover the parents you love are actually kidnappers. And that age progression is incredibly impressive!
Thats true
That's a very good comment up above and it's very true what you said
You should read The Face on the Milk Carton, about a girl who sees her own missing picture on a milk carton.
@@ravery531 wow that's pretty scary I did recently just see a young man that saw his own picture on a missing kids paper.... of course the young man is grown now that's pretty scary
@Kittie Yang I'm pretty sure I read that in middle school. Or saw the movie It spooked me. Do they still put faces on the cartons? I think nowadays it is just "have you seen me?" On newspapers. The milk carton does make sense though since kids are drinking those for school lunches and could see themselves.
I am super impressed by that age progression picture. Like wow that was pretty accurate

@@dixinormus8522 it's not exactly upscaling, as it only increased image resolution, not adding up missing information from the pixel
really impressive, I think that since it was the father who reported the disappearance, they had enough data to achieve that result
They probably used his father's appearance as a basis; his father even now looks just like an older version.
when i clicked on the video, i thought his adopted parents were the ones who kidnapped him.

This hits hard. My mother basically kidnapped me as well, telling my father I was a miscarriage and skipping town. He never even knew I existed until a few years ago.
Sorry for your loss, hope you can catch up even a little bit
Whaaaaaaat
And this is why i read TH-cam comments
Damn...that is just crazy. As a father of 2, this would be devastating and amazing to me all at once. Devastating knowing I missed so much time and being angry at myself for letting it happen, and amazing and happy being reunited with a child I never knew I had. I hope you and your father have a great relationship moving forward!
Do you know why she did that?
Everyone talks about how he must have felt.
Imagine how his dad felt after 30 some years. His son was taken and he just had to wonder if he was even still alive. But then one day out of the blue a man calls and introduces himself as his missing son. That’s intense
He didn’t report his wife or baby missing for three fucking weeks. Sounds like he didn’t even give a shit when it happened
@@theforeverfalling maybe they didnt live together..... some people have visiting days with their kids.
@@theforeverfalling , he said that she'd left occasionally with the baby, but always came back - I guess he didn't want to acknowledge that she had psychological issues and call the police and have her committed.
@@lenkacfk7155 true. It’s heartbreaking no matter what
@@masuganut2082 , but at least he had a happy childhood and a nice family - it could have taken a much worse turn.
I can’t even imagine how the dad felt hearing his son’s voice 30 YEARS later
WOW, yeah, think of All those emotions in his heart, WOW.
Sadly there is a high probability his birth mother has passed.
@@brettcrook9362 Good. She is or was a monster. Who would put their baby through such turmoil
@@rayhanes1347 maybe somebody took the baby from her. Maybe she went crazy because her baby was stolen from her.
You need to her her full story before you can blame her illness on her.
I would have thought it was a scam and hung up.
It feels so good to hear that a child that was missing for so long was actually in good hands the whole time :)
@@myknittingblog No ofc not! But it feels good to know that a child that happened to be missing didn’t end up with a cruel faith?
Because all adoptive parents are psychos?
@Jesus is LORD this video isn’t long enough to go to 54:17
@Jesus is LORD "Religion convinced the world that there's an invisible man in the sky who watches everything you do. And there's 10 things he doesn't want you to do or else you'll go to a burning place with a lake of fire until the end of eternity. But he loves you! ...And he needs money!

He wasn't kidnapped
@@phabidz No one says he was
@@joshushushu bruh that's edited
Nobody asked, and nobody cares, but 200th like
Or maybe the father was violent and the mother fled with her child. Could be. Not saying it's fact, but it's where my mind went. The lengths she went to to obscure their traces hint at her having had a plan, not being crazy.
Police: can’t solve case
This guy: fine I’ll do it myself
They don't care
And he's done it!
Good he did though. Now when his mother made it so hard for the police to find him. That was mean of her. 😕
To be fair, he went missing in the 70s, there was no internet at that time that has databases which makes things easier. And of course, the person who went missing will always solve it much faster than ppl like his father who had almost no leads. And if this guy never thought he was a missing person, this great story wouldnt even exist and remain unsolved.
😂😂
I ain't gonna lie he looks just like his biological father..

Yes. I'd be interested in the story of his parents - those who raised him

Yeah I'd rather my child be adopted by good people rather then y'know ... THAT

My first thought was "oh, were his adopted parents kidnappers?!" They weren't, nor were they really mentioned again. I know this guy has a lot to sort out, but I hope they don't forget who he became being raised by those who adopted him and they get the appreciation they deserve.
He said that he got another family. So he has both. And he at that point did not meet his biological family
can we get over this notion that parents, especially adoptive parents, are OWED appreciation?
@@queenjeski591 Obviously if they were somehow horrible to him, then sure. Not enough info to go on here, but seriously- do you think raising kids should be completely thankless?
@@queenjeski591 ummm, what???? Surely they deserve some appreciation from literally rescuing this child from an orphanage?
of course anyone should be appreciative but no one is owed anything but the same dignity and respect they show you. Because someone adopts you doesn’t mean you owe them anything, should someone be grateful? Sure. But because they adopted you doesn’t mean you should have to spend your life bound by the adoption.
I’m so glad his father is still alive.

@@jellymarie1965 I’m not talking about that (his adoptive parents) I’m talking about / (questioning) who the hell abducted him from his own parents
@@incogb6696 The video explains this…he wasn’t “abducted.”
I am so thrilled about this, especially for the dad, I watched this documentary when I was really young. I'm now 50 years old, this is amazing. I've always wondered if he was ever going to find his son, and I always wanted that for him, this makes me incredibly happy, I know the father really was in a lot of pain now, though he'll get to know his son, and that's awesome, I'm really hoping and wishing these 2 end up having a great relationship..
So his mother left and was put in an asylum yet they didn't give the baby back to the father!? That's so crazy!
It seems like she made sure he didn’t get back to the father. She changed the “race of the father”, which made it so they’d never link him to the father.
I’m afraid that she probably had severe post partum, or the father had issues. (Which, he could have changed after losing his son for 30 years.)
She had changed his birthday, name and race of father so they couldn’t piece together who the dad was.
Watch the movie Kramer vs Kramer. Moms were all Karen's back then..kids go to the mom. Period. Still a problem. Would be lovely if the IRA was passed as all 50 states would have current family courts gutted
@@rayebae6368 You are trying to psychoanalyze a person who vanished based off of scant information?
@@Rhythmicons just bringing up a common issue that’s a possibility.
Just a theory. Postpartum depression is much more common than people admit, so I think it’s worth mentioning.
Same with domestic abuse. It was/is so common, that we should consider it also a possibility.
Or she could have thought that she was being controlled by the government and was going to be abducted by aliens. Or she could’ve been a Russian spy. anything is possible.
But an educated guess would be post-partum and/or domestic abuse. 🤷♀️ Something to look out for even today.

Theknowabout .. Same to me. Was recommend after watching countless videos of missing kids now adults finding their biological parents.😊
Same here....and I wasn't watching anything remotely similar either.......
That age progression is so accurate! I guess they really do capture the older appearance.
It was the father than arranged the missing persons listing. Therefore the artist could have simply created a younger version of the father. And he does look extremely similar to his dad.
Not really
Glad you thought so, didn't look anything alike to me. Lol.

@@valwilliams3834 Don't be so sure of that. Hunted my father down after 4 decades. Wanted to find out family medical history, didn't want anything else.
Definitely not family, definitely detached
Still don’t get why his first thought was to go on a site for missing children. Glad he did and that he’s found his dad.
Listen to the video again. So many reasons! It wasn't his first thought. The fact that his birth certificate was created a year after his birth, he was 4 years old when adopted, he was told he is half Native Hawaiian, but looks Euro, so he already knew his case was odd. Then, he saw a news story about a woman who found herself by looking on Missing Children websites, and the possibility of accurate age-progression images sparked him, made him consider the possibility.
@ Sophie Gregory
His mother I believe did " a runner" no warning, no reason, no note, but rather self serving. Father went to work returned home & both were gone The plan was to disappear, hence all the double dates of birth & skullduggery, anything to prevent the father accessing the infant despite desperately searching & the police being informed. Information gleaned later added to the story pre- adoption, this I found on another website ( short & sweet)

No-ones going to talk about how the mother just disappeared and has still not been located?
That's pretty spooky
Well, her last known whereabouts are at a psych hospital. I'm assuming they let her go and she sorta just walked off. Probably safe to assume she is dead
sus
There's so many extra layers to this. Was she released from the psych ward? Assumedly so, but wouldn't there be records of her being released? Were there and they just didn't mention it? And how was she admitted to the psych ward without them identifying her as the woman who kidnapped her son, and thus identifying him rather than putting him up for adoption. It's like even beyond the original mystery of the missing child being solved, there are even more mysteries.
Yeah appearently no one cares that something horrible most likely happened.. We're just accepting the premise that she was crazy are we...?!?! A costody case from the 70s... It strikes me as very odd that they didnt touch on it MUCH more... Especially when she went through the trouble of changing her sons name and then she "mysteriously" dissappears from a psychiatric facility(in the 70s!).. I like how they used that word "mystery" like its a fucking fairytales and not a horror story with too many loose ends and this poor mother they all say was crazy.. something went down for sure.
There are so many stories like this it's insane. People really steal children, children to missing, sold even. And the abducted children find out themselves later on. Can't imagine how insane that feels.

Kaila Jensen TH-cam knows you well. And me too.
because everything else looks worse and we're bored

Mental mother and a father that has not taken care of himself. Something tells me he was far better off with the adoptive parents.
isawondfl1 maybe the father wasn't taking care of himself AFTER the son went missing. Not knowing where your child is causes depression
redwoodrebelgirl maybe he dated a mental patient who punched him in the mouth?his fault? Maybe,maybe not
you better get in touch with him and set him straight before he gets any ideas about time travel.
you don't know what they went through.......and they certainly don't need your holier than thou rebuke .
Because of his teeth? As you age, teeth get worse. it's also genetics. Not everyone can afford dentures.
No one is talking about the fact that someone disappeared his mother & are not searching for her. Why did she leave the dad several times, was he abusive to her?
If "I need to find myself" was a person
What
@@fuquplz9983 let me repeat it. If “I need to find myself” was a person
😂😂😂😂😂
@@agentsbigassforehead what
My god if I lost my child I would be broken until the day I found him her or at least found about ... May god protect all parents from this pain.. can’t even imahine
I remember, either on AGT, or Idol, there was that group who had all lost children that did a song. Probably the most heartbreaking thing I'd ever seen. I know those shows are mostly fake/scripted/whatever, but that group felt real, and there are way too many people out there with missing loved ones. Many of them probably children, and it hurts.
The missing people choir. Yeah, that is tragic :( it’s nice they found a way to channel their feelings though.
Wow. He solved his own missing case. This should be a movie.
That age progression artist deserves a raise
He looks and walks just like his father.
The age progression photo from the baby photo to what the child would look like in his 20's, was a very close to what he looks like in his 30's. What a wonderful skill to project what a baby looks like in 20 years. Wow!!!!
@Hello there, how are you doing this blessed day?
Nobody:
TH-cam Recommendations: Here's a guy who found himself
This story is sketchy, what happened to his mom and how she disappeared. She was running away from something that something got her in the end..
The mom. Probably has a mental health disorder which was never properly diagnosed. If she would always go missing for a long period of time and then return. So she took the baby had an episode and got committed
Nothing sketchy. Mom should never ever had custody . are you struggling with the concept of a unfit mother might be the issue
She was definitely running. She wouldn't go out the way to change all their information
Or a drug addict
@@brenco7325 Or insane. She would easily change that information if it meant never tracing to the boy's father. There's not enough evidence to say if the mom was delusional, correct, or a mix of the two
I think I can understand how his felt as I recently found out that I have a son I didn't know about for 41 years. He was born in another country after the last time I was stationed overseas.
Two of the happiest days of my life have been this year. The first was opening an email I normally would have deleted and the other was receiving confirmation from our DNA tests.
Yayy!!! Congratulations!!!
@@ingrid9635, thank you much.
Incredible story! Wishing this fantastic young man lots of love and peace and happiness 🙏🏿
The family resemblance of father and son definitely cannot be denied. I love these solved mysteries.
My father has a story similar to this with his biological parents. I need to send this video to him.
just like i said--not unusual that age progression maybe -RIGHT ON!
The poor man had to piece his life together when it wasn’t even his fault.
TH-cam is getting really comfortable with these double unskipable ads
