The girl who disappeared at home and was found dead under her mattress

On March 22, 2010, Paulette Gebara, a four-year-old girl, disappeared from her own bed in Huixquilucan, State of Mexico. Her mother had put her in her pajamas and kissed her goodnight. But the next morning, when her babysitter tried to wake her up for her to go to school, the girl was nowhere to be found.

Immediately, they searched the apartment, the building and even the pool of the condominium where Paulette lived with her parents, Mauricio Gebara and Lisette Farah, and her sister. But they could not find the whereabouts of the little girl. Nine days later she was found between the base of the bed and the mattress on which she had last been seen.

Look: “I wanted to die, but his voice asked me to look for him”

What is strange is that, when Paulette was missing, some media conducted interviews with the relatives in the girl’s bed, so the authorities immediately pointed out that the culprit(s) would have to be members of her family or close friends. .

Contradictions in the statements of the parents

In the days following the disappearance of Paulette Gebara, as reported by the Mexican outlet ‘Milenio’, the father stated that he knew where they would find her. However, he claimed that he needed certain guarantees to be able to provide the information he claimed to have.

For her part, Lisette Farah began to accuse her husband of being responsible for what had happened to their daughter. Paulette was a girl who had a motor disability condition, for which she required constant specialized attention.

Exactly nine days after the girl’s absence was noticed, she was found between the mattress and the base of the bed, which gave rise to authorities launching investigations against both parents and the family’s nannies, according to local media indicated.

The case reached national interest, as updates appeared in most of the media and on social networks. What’s more, it escalated from being a local case to being investigated by the State of Mexico Attorney General’s Office, headed by Alberto Bazbaz.

And although the country’s authorities undertook the task of finding the culprit, currently, none of the family members were found responsible for what happened to Paulette and there is no public clarity on the circumstances in which the girl died.

cause of death

According to the minor’s autopsy reports, the reason for her death was suffocation due to obstruction of her airways and strong pressure on her trunk. After the media interest in the case, Lisette Farah and Mauricio Gebara divorced and custody of their first daughter remained in the mother’s hands.

Farah demanded that the judicial file of the investigation be handed over to him, since he questioned the opinion they gave in the attorney general’s office, in which they declared his death accidental.

Twelve years have passed since then and Mexico now remembers this death with more fervor due to the constant inconsistencies in the investigation of the case that has moved the entire country: the disappearance and death of Debanhi Escobar.

Some users of social networks have even claimed that despite the years, there are still situations in which the authorities are incompetent both to find missing persons and to be transparent in the investigation processes.
