On December 11, 1994, 4 year old D’Wan Sims was shopping at the Wonderland Mall in Livonia Michigan with his mother when he suddenly disappeared. Soon into the investigation, inconsistencies in D’wan’s mother’s story would come to light, leading to questions about what truly took place that day.
Despite numerous tips and possible sightings, D’wan’s whereabouts remain unknown.
