In this episode, we unravel the perplexing case of Bobby Dunbar, a four-year-old boy who vanished during a family outing in Louisiana in 1912. Eight months later, a child believed to be Bobby was found and returned to his family — but controversy erupted when another woman claimed he was her son.
What followed was a dramatic court battle, national media frenzy, and lifelong identity mystery. Decades later, DNA testing would shockingly reopen the case. Was the boy truly Bobby Dunbar, or had the wrong child been claimed? We delve into the emotional story, false assumptions, and the power of identity and truth.
