The woman, Andrea Reyes, is now 27 years old. She was just two years old in October 1999 when she was abducted from New Haven, Connecticut.

Very interesting story. Thanks Othram for reuniting this family.

A woman who was abducted by her mother 25 years ago from Connecticut has been reunited with her father after DNA comparison.

The company that worked the case, Othram, announced the match on March 4 and New Haven police, where the child was reported missing in 1999, will host a press conference Wednesday to update the public.

Solving Reyes’ case was part of Othram's Project 525 initiative, which began in May 2024. Othram works with research institute RTI International, which manages the National Missing and Unidentified Persons System, to solve juvenile cases.
