Etan Patz
Etan Patz was a six-year-old boy who disappeared in New York City on May 25, 1979, while walking to his school bus stop. His case became a landmark moment in the history of missing children in America, as it sparked widespread media attention and led to significant changes in how such cases were handled, including the use of his image on milk cartons. After decades of uncertainty, his case was reopened in 2010, leading to the eventual conviction of Pedro Hernández for his abduction and murder.
