C A S E D E T A I L S On Sunday, December 15, 1996, in Willingboro, NJ, 12-year old Celina Mays was home preparing for bed and spending what we now know is her last moments on record. Just hours before, she attended church, had ice cream with her family, then went to bed around 11:00pm.

Celina was an expectant mother, being nine months pregnant. She was due in only two weeks. In just her 12 years, Celina had a complicated life. Her family structure was curated in a way where she had very little access to the “outside world”, making this case narrowed down to those in her small world.

One out of the many elements in her case that was strange is the last words she said to a relative before she went to bed. Though, it may mean something or all of nothing, it is important to note. It leaves people wondering if she chose to leave and disappear because of her circumstances or did someone make her disappear. Was someone harboring a secret, a family secret? I would describe this case as convoluted, layered, and protected. You will soon find that this case has three sides to it. What the public knows and what was done in secret…then, the truth. So, what happened to Celina on the late evening of December 15, or early morning of December 16, 1996? Could it be that she up and left while pregnant, or is her disappearance connected to someone else; possibly a secret, a family secret or a cult?
