The Alma Police Department is set to reveal a significant development in the long-standing case of the 1995 kidnapping of 6-year-old Morgan Nick. The announcement, scheduled for Tuesday, October 1, at 10:30 a.m. at the Alma Police Department, will be made by Alma Police Chief Jeff Pointer.
Background of the Case
Morgan Nick was abducted on June 5, 1995, while attending a Little League baseball game in Alma, Arkansas. She was last seen playing with other children on the fields around 10:30 p.m. before she disappeared. Despite extensive searches and investigations by the FBI, state, and local law enforcement, as well as private investigators, Morgan's location remains a mystery.
The case has garnered widespread national attention and has remained open for nearly three decades. Over the years, there have been numerous potential breakthroughs, including excavation efforts and arrests linked to the case, but none have led to the location of Morgan.
Ongoing Efforts and Impact
In the aftermath of her daughter's disappearance, Colleen Nick established the Morgan Nick Foundation in 1996. The foundation aims to support families of missing children and to promote awareness about child abductions. Additionally, a four-part documentary titled 'Still Missing Morgan,' which focuses on the kidnapping, was released on Hulu in 2023.
The upcoming announcement by the Alma Police Department marks a significant moment in the ongoing investigation, and it is anticipated to provide new insights or developments in the case.
