Mum tracks down kidnapped children through Facebook

A Californian mother has tracked down her two missing children through Facebook after they had been kidnapped 15 years earlier.

The woman’s husband, Faustino Utrera , had left with the children, vowing to never let her contact them again.

After searching for her daughter’s name on the social network, the woman eventually tracked her children down, and began sending them messages. She then contacted the San Bernardino Deputy District Attorney Kurt Rowley, eventually leading to the Utrera’s arrest and the safe return of her children after all those years.
