On the afternoon of January 16, 1973, five-year-old Anna Waters had just returned home from kindergarten. The storm that had wreaked havoc in her San Mateo, California town had finally stopped, and she wanted to go play in the backyard. Her mother, Michaele, gave her permission, and Anna pulled on her rain boots and went outside. After about 10 minutes, alarmed by the silence out back, Michaele went to check on her daughter. But little Anna was gone.

An investigation quickly ensued, with everyone assuming that Anna had fallen into the nearby river. But when she wasn’t found, her family and investigators began to worry that she was abducted. But by whom? Was this a stranger abduction, or was the culprit closer to home?

Anyone with information regarding Anna Waters disappearance is asked to contact the San Mateo County Sheriff's Office Missing Persons Unit at 1-650-364-1811
