The Girl in the Bed: Searching for Paulette Gebara Farah

Episode Description from the Publisher

On March 22, 2010, four-year-old Paulette Gebara Farah was reported missing from her family’s luxury apartment in Mexico City. There were no signs of forced entry. No ransom demands. No witnesses. And this wasn’t a child who could easily wander off. What followed was a massive media frenzy. Her parents, Mauricio Gebara and Lizette Farah, made emotional public appeals as search efforts intensified and the entire country watched. But as days passed with no answers, the focus began to shift inward. Investigators started questioning the family. Stories didn’t quite line up. Public suspicion grew. Nine days later, she was found in the same room… in a place dozens of people had already looked.
