Some mysteries begin with the smallest clues. For Betty Ketani, justice started with a few sheets of paper hidden beneath a carpet tile.
Betty was more than just a missing person statistic. A devoted mother of three, she left her hometown in the Eastern Cape for Johannesburg in search of better opportunities.
On May 20th, 1999, Betty vanished after her evening shift. Police barely investigated.Her family searched desperately, but for thirteen years, Betty's disappearance remained an agonizing mystery.
The breakthrough came unexpectedly in 2012 when neighbors renovating a Johannesburg home discovered a hidden confession letter beneath carpet tiles.
Betty's story reminds us that justice can arrive from unexpected places, even from beneath dusty carpet tiles when we least expect it.
Featuring insights and details based on Cold Case Confession by Alex Eliseev — an in-depth investigation into Betty’s case and the trial that followed.
