Rudd disappeared on March 1, 2014, on Massachusetts Avenue in Southeast D.C. She was 8 years old. She was reported missing on March 19 of the same year and would now be 14.
Rudd’s disappearance prompted numerous searches around the city, as well as FBI rewards for information.
The investigation into her disappearance also prompted the closure of the troubled shelter at D.C. General where she lived.
Police believe she was kidnapped by a janitor who worked at the D.C. General homeless shelter, where she lived with her family. She was last seen on surveillance video with the janitor, Khalil Tatum, who killed his wife and then himself not long after. His body was found in Kenilworth Park and Aquatic Gardens April 1, 2014.
