Grace Packer, a bubbly 14 year old with rosy cheeks and a smile for days was last seen at a 4th, 2016 July picnic with relatives. She officially was reported missing on July 11th, 2016 by her adoptive mother, Sara Packer. Sara Packer told investigators Grace left her home in Abington Township, Pennsylvania with $300 dollars cash with her. About 2 months later in September it was reported that she might be in the location of a community center, just outside of Philadelphia. In October of 2016, detectives Sara Packer, Grace's mother with child endangerment, and obstructing administration of the law, a misdemeanor. Detectives alleged that Sara Packer withheld critical information and gave misleading statements to police after reporting Grace missing on July 11, 2016. On Halloween, 2016, 2 hunters found remains scatted along Francis Walter Dam in Bear Creek Township. The remains were positivity identified as Grace Packer. What followed was more than a classic who done it. The arrest of the people involved was easy, but it was the reason why that left a community, state and nation in a state of shock and permanent mourning.
