This has been on the news since the 16th of October. Some Great News for the family. [A four-year-old girl missing for 18 days in a remote part of Western Australia has been found alive and well in a locked house, police have said. Cleo Smith disappeared from her family's tent at a campsite near the town of Carnarvon on 16 October, triggering a massive search effort. Police smashed their way into a locked house in Carnarvon at 01:00 local time, where they found her. A 36-year-old man from Carnarvon is in custody and being questioned by police. "A police team broke their way into a locked house... They found little Cleo in one of the rooms," Western Australian Deputy Commissioner Col Blanch said in a statement on Wednesday. "One of the officers picked her up into his arms and asked her 'What's your name?' She said 'My name is Cleo'," he added. The four-year-old has now been reunited with her parents, who had made desperate and emotional pleas for Cleo's return since she vanished. "Our family is whole again," Ellie Smith, Cleo's mother wrote on Instagram.] [Australian PM Scott Morrison, who is now heading home after being in Scotland for the COP26 climate summit, tweeted that it was "wonderful, relieving news".] https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-australia-59143494 Last edited by arista; 03-11-2021 at 02:08 AM. |

Hopefully she's too young to understand and she doesn't suffer from long term trauma.

This is such an uplifting story ! because so many times there is is a very sad end , its so good but has this bloke been beaten up in custody ? Not helpful even if he 'deserves' it ! The courts need to deal with this man not the police .

Amazing that this story has ended with her alive in all honesty, such a relief for the family but sadly they will be affected by this forever. He has still done something truly horrendous to them even if she wasn't physically harmed in any way. They're likely to be anxious to let her out of their sight, probably forever, but definitely for her entire childhood. Nursery, school, kids parties etc... none of those things will be simple for this family now as there will be serious separation anxiety and trauma (hopefully the girl is too little to be badly affected; I mean for the parents)
