Woman taken as a baby reunites with her swamp rescuer. But questions linger over her disappearance
When Tameka Boone walked into a Virginia dentist’s office in late February for a six-month checkup, she never expected to come face to face with the woman who saved her life when she was a toddler.
Tameka, nicknamed “lost and found” as a child by her family, recognized the name “Trudy Gunn” on the appointment screen while being prepped for teeth cleaning.
Tameka, 36, told her story to the dental hygienist, asking if she could meet the woman she had been told rescued her from a swamp after she went missing from her home when she was 19 months old. Even though family members told her she had met Gunn in passing as a young child years later, Tameka said she had always wanted to talk to the woman not only to thank her but to hear for herself what had happened.

Family asks for compassion release for Calvin Wayne Cunningham
A man whose life spiraled out of control after he was wrongfully convicted of a 1979 rape in Newport News is said to be dying behind bars from cancer.
Jon Sheldon, a lawyer for Calvin Wayne Cunningham, an inmate at the Lunenburg Correctional Center, said Friday that, Calvin got his diagnosis yesterday: stage four liver and pancreatic cancer. He is in tremendous pain and by his condition it appears that he has a very short time, said Sheldon.
Sheldon filed a petition for an emergency compassionate release for Cunningham with the Virginia State Parole Board Friday in the hope his client will not die in prison. The governor s office and the Virginia Department of Corrections were copied on the petition.
