WAYNESBORO, Pa. — More than three years after two sisters were reported missing, Hanna Lee and Skye Rex have been found safe.

On March 17, 2020, a judge awarded John Rex with full custody of the two girls after a bitter divorce and long court battle, according to court records. That same day, John Rex told police his ex-wife, Lashada Lee, had left with the girls.

The girls were only 7 and 5 years old when they disappeared. At the time, John Rex lived near Hagerstown, Maryland but the girls were believed to have been abducted by their mother while in Waynesboro, Pennsylvania.

According to the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children, the girls were finally located and their mother was arrested. There is no word on what charges she may be facing at this time.
