Meet Rebecca Reusch, a 15-year-old K-pop enthusiast from Berlin, Germany. Unfortunately, she’s been missing since February 18, 2019, and the police are still trying to piece together the puzzle.

Rebecca was big on social media, especially TikTok and Instagram, where she had a following of over 30,000 fans. She was a close-knit part of her family, including her older sister Jessica, who was 27 at the time.

Sometimes, Rebecca spent weekends at Jessica’s place, and her parents were cool with it because they were one tight-knit family. On February 17, 2019, Jessica’s husband, Florian, was out partying with his co-workers, leaving the girls alone for some sisterly bonding.

Rebecca’s mom gave her the green light, but with one condition: she had to be in school on time the next day. The plot thickens when Jessica left early for work at 7 a.m., leaving only Florian and Rebecca at home.

When it hit 7:15, Rebecca’s mom called to remind her to head to school, but her phone was off the grid. Panic mode engaged. She called Jessica, who had no clue where Rebecca was, and then Florian, who claimed she’d already left.

Initially, nobody was too alarmed, thinking it was just a mix-up. However, as hours passed, they got a call from school saying Rebecca hadn’t shown up. That’s when the missing person report hit the police.

The police released photos of Rebecca, but her family said they didn’t capture her true essence thanks to all those Instagram filters.

Some thought maybe Rebecca ran away, but the family couldn’t believe it since they were super close.

On February 28, 2019, the police threw a curveball by arresting Florian, Rebecca’s brother-in-law. That shook the family, but it made Florian the prime suspect. Why? Well, Florian’s story had more twists than a rollercoaster.

He said he was home all night, but data from the internet router told a different story. It showed he was online well past his bedtime. Plus, Rebecca’s phone stayed connected till 7:46 a.m., and he got a call at 7:15 a.m. saying she’d vanished.

They also found Rebecca’s DNA in Florian’s car, but here’s the twist – Jessica used that car too, so it wasn’t a slam-dunk piece of evidence.

Florian got released due to lack of evidence but got arrested again on March 4. This time he said he went to Poland to meet a drug dealer and returned to find his lost wedding ring. Not the most convincing alibi.

The cops searched Poland high and low but found nothing. Then, Rebecca’s family dropped a bombshell – they mentioned a mysterious “Max” she’d met online. She’d asked to meet him, but they said no. After she disappeared, Max vanished too, wiping his social media clean. The police never tracked him down.

Fast forward a few years, and the case is still unsolved. Rebecca’s family stepped back from the investigation due to tensions with the cops. The case files remain open, waiting for a breakthrough.
