ATLANTA — The National Center for Missing & Exploited Children (NCMEC) announced a new, national initiative to help find missing Atlanta infant, Raymond Green. He’s been missing since he was just an infant back in the 1970s.
Raymond Green was only five days old when he was abducted in southwest Atlanta on November 6, 1978.
His mother, Donna, said she befriended a woman who went by “Lisa” after giving birth and she says she thinks that woman showed up one day and abducted the child. It has been 44 years since Donna Green has seen her son, but she has not given up hope.
There are no photos of Raymond, but an age-progressed photo based on a sketch from his mother’s memory will be featured at 28,000 gas stations across 48 states. GSTV does not operate in New Jersey and Oregon.
By using the gas pumps at stations across the U.S. the NCMEC will spotlight the case in hopes of someone, anyone, offering information.
NCMEC says they have previously partnered with digital video network GSTV to highlight missing persons cases in as many as 25 states, but this is the first time they will focus all of their efforts on a single missing person.
“By turning our screens to a single case for the first time, we hope to leverage the attention we have with our viewers and garner the visibility Raymond’s family needs to bring him home,” said Violeta Ivezaj, SVP of Business Operations for GSTV.
Donna Green described her son’s abduction to WSB in 2013.
She says she gave birth at Grady Memorial Hospital. Six days later, she said a woman she befriended at Grady who called herself Lisa showed up at her house and kidnapped Raymond while she took a shower.
In 2014, Donna Green told WSB that she had located a man in Germany who could possibly have been Raymond. Sadly, the man was not a DNA match for her son.
The campaign on GSTV screens will run for two weeks.
Anyone with details on Raymond Green should call Crime Stoppers at 404-577-8477.
