The story of Nicholas Barclay took the world by storm when the young 13-year-old boy went missing one day after a game of basketball. Then amazingly 3 years later, he made an astonishing return to his grateful family. But it would seem that Nicholas had not only gotten older, he seemed to have changed in appearance almost completely, down to his eye color.
See how one family finds out that their long-lost son turned out to not actually be their son at all.
A Troubled Tween
Nicholas Barclay was born on December 31, 1980 in San Antonio, Texas. He was known to be a troublemaker in school, getting into fights and had a very tumultuous relationship with his family, including screaming and arguing with his very own mother. After receiving a juvenile record for stealing from a convenience store, he was said to have been given a hearing date, which was set for June 14, 1994. This was going to decipher whether he needed to be placed in a group home for his disruptive behavior, something he surely didn’t want to happen.
