8-year-old Cherrie Mahan vanished from a bus stop in 1985. Now, a woman claims she’s the missing girl

National Center for Missing and Exploited Children

A woman is claiming to be an 8-year-old girl who vanished after getting off a bus 40 years ago - and police are investigating to see if her assertion is true.

Cherrie Mahan vanished from the stop in front of her home in Winfield Township, Butler County, on February 22, 1985. She has not been seen or heard from since. She was just eight years old, and her parents were waiting inside for their daughter to come home, excited to take her to a friend’s house that day. But they would never get to take her to that friend’s house.
