Pamela Mayfield, 5: Missing Girl & Brother, 6, Last Seen In A Stranger’s Car
The City of Houston, Texas, still has a mystery of two missing children that has gone unsolved for decades. The number of young children who still walk to and from school isn’t as significant as in the 1980s. It was common for kids to foot their way around their neighborhoods, and that’s exactly what six-year-old Michael Mayfield and his sister, five-year-old Pamela Mayfield, did on January 10, 1985.
What Happened To The Mayfield Siblings?
According to reports, Michael and Pamela were students at Betsy Ross Elementary School. The siblings were enrolled in a kindergarten class because it was decided Michael would repeat his year. For some unknown reason, it was said that Michael was deemed too young the first time around.
The siblings attended school on January 10 and walked home together—something they’d done numerous times. They were spotted playing together at a local park, and witnesses claimed to have seen them getting into a green car. Others reportedly saw the siblings in the backseat. An unidentified man was behind the wheel, but an exact description of the vehicle has not been shared with the public.
A Mother’s Questions Go Unanswered For Decades
“I [cry] at night sometimes thinking about them,” Cynthia Hunt, Michael and Pamela’s mother, told KHOU News back in 2016. “They wanted to walk home from school and I told them okay, they can walk.”
She added, “[I feel hurt]. I’ve seen a lot of kids come up missing. I always said, ‘I hope I will never have to go through that. Then, I did have to go through it… I still see them as those two little kids. My two little kids. They liked to talk, have fun, and play.”
Reports are divided when it comes to the status of this case. Some state that the children are being treated as a non-family abduction. Other reports claim that investigators believe that a relative took Pamela and Michael.
