SUMMARY: A missing 15-year-old girl from Katy, Texas, was found unharmed after nearly two weeks, with an Amber Alert and search efforts from local authorities. A private digital forensic investigator played a key role by accessing the girl’s Gmail account to track her location. Despite having no cell service, the girl used public Wi-Fi at various locations, including a grocery store and restaurants, which allowed the investigator to pinpoint her whereabouts. The information was then handed over to the police, leading to her safe return just in time for Christmas. The investigation is ongoing.
