Melissa McMahon posted a message today on her Facebook page, thanking hospital staff, police, the media and the public for helping find her daughter Victoria.
McMahon says she wouldn’t have Victoria in her arms today without the help of the thousands of people who rapidly shared the Amber Alert and the photo of the suspect on social media.
She says she felt powerless while her baby was missing and that terrible scenarios rolled through her head.
“Four marvellous people, that we had a chance to meet, identified the woman thanks to Facebook,” Ms. McMahon wrote. “It’s the only reason why Victoria is in our arms right now. Our thanks to all Quebeckers who made an extra efforts.”
The four young Quebeckers, who spoke to reporters at the hospital, were identified as Charlène Plante, Mélizanne Bergeron, Charel Bergeron et Marc-André Côté.
