The 42-year-old mystery of a New York woman who vanished after being dropped off for a doctor's appointment came to a happy ending this week when detectives located her at a Massachusetts assisted living facility. "It's not too often we get to solve a 42-year-old missing-person case," Sullivan County Sheriff Mike Schiff said in a statement. Police periodically reviewed Stevens' case but kept hitting dead ends. The state police investigators asked Sullivan County for help tracking down any relatives who could provide a DNA sample for possible identification. During a records search, Detective Rich Morgan discovered someone was using Stevens' Social Security number in Massachusetts.
