A newborn baby who was kidnapped from a Florida hospital 18 years ago by a woman pretending to be a nurse has been found alive and well in South Carolina. The mystery of Kamiyah Mobley became a national sensation when she was taken from her mother's arms at the University Medical Center in Jacksonville in July 1998.
Jacksonville police have since revealed the teen found out on Friday morning that the woman who has raised her in Walterboro is not her mother.
Gloria Williams, 51, has been arrested and charged with kidnapping and interference with custody. Jacksonville Sheriff Mike Williams said she will be extradited back to the city. The sensational news shuts a cold case that accumulated more than 2,500 leads and tips and captivated both the city and the country for a decade.
It was a tip last year that led Jacksonville police to South Carolina, where they found an 18-year-old woman with Kamiyah Mobley's birth date but a different name.
