It seemed as though everything stopped in North Texas on Wednesday, November thirtieth,
0:15
twenty twenty two. That evening, seven year old Athena Strand went missing.
0:21
She was last seen at her home at approximately five thirty pm. Wise
0:27
County residents and some from the surrounding counties such as Tarrant and Parker, swarmed
0:33
the area surrounding the little girl's home in the tiny town of Paradise, Texas,
0:38
to help search. To their credit, the Wise County Sheriff's Office sprung
0:44
into action fast enlisting the help of the Texas Department of Public Safety, the
0:49
four Worth Police area, fire departments, and a canine rescue team. An
0:55
amber alert was issued, and although that was not without its problems as usual
1:00
concerning the implementation of the alert, it gained the attention of virtually every North
1:07
Texan on the grid and arguably a helpful thing. Some, however, were
1:12
less than helpful. As is the case with every high profile crime or disappearance,
1:19
folks took to social media to offer speculation and character analyzes of those involved.
1:26
Most, of course, graceless and since virtually no clues clearly pointed to
1:33
what might have happened based upon nothing more than the few known details about Athena
1:38
and her family. By the following morning, in fact, a Facebook group
1:42
had been created, and when twenty four hours had gone by with no sign
1:48
of the seven year old girl, things got ugly there. While social media
1:53
has become an incredibly important tool for locating missing persons and identifying both victims and
1:59
petrators of crimes, the members of this particular group seemed less interested in finding
2:06
Athena Strand and more hell bent on a witch hunt for whoever was responsible.
2:10
Even before knowing a crime had been committed, the focus quickly turned to Athena's
2:16
parents. This Facebook group was filled with rumor fueled speculation and judgment of individuals
2:24
who were living in conditions foreign to them, conditions they didn't understand and were
2:30
quick to condemn as abusive for the lack of a term that better suits what
2:36
they were doing. There, Folks were talking out of their asses. For
2:39
instance, because it was reported Athena and her stepmother had gotten into an argument
2:45
just prior to her disappearance, Commentors discussed with passion and certainty that the stepmother
2:52
was responsible, that she was covering up killing the child, whether on purpose
2:57
or by accident when she or Athena missing, Local media outlets mixing up minor
3:04
details, and all the confusion of the fast paced investigation caused people to accuse
3:09
Athena's stepmother of killing her straight out, and suggested the stepmother's friends were liars
3:15
and co conspirators in the cover up. It didn't help that some volunteers had
3:22
gone to search simply to feed exaggerated information that further spun the rumor mill.
3:29
Even though Sheriff Lane Aiken insisted multiple times that there were absolutely no signs of
3:35
foul play in or around the Strand home, folks were sure Athena's father and
3:39
stepmother had been taken to the Wise County Sheriff's office to be interrogated until they
3:45
confessed, seemingly unaware of the fact that questioning them is the most standard of
3:51
procedures in such a case, or perhaps simply ignoring that fact to further fuel
3:57
the vitriol. A slight second, the focus of suspicion turned to a co
4:02
worker, though no one ever specified if it was someone who worked with Athena's
4:08
father or stepmother. For another moment. Athena's father was the target of folks
4:15
suspicions as they wondered if he actually had not headed to a Bear County hunting
4:19
lease and was disposing of her body without any proof whatsoever, because none existed.
4:27
Throughout all this, it should be noted there were many voices of reason
4:30
trying to curb the rumor based speculation, but they weren't nearly as loud and
4:36
easily drowned out. On the third day of searches, the body of seven
4:42
year old Athena Strand was found about nine miles southeast of her home near Boyd
4:47
at the edge of the waters of the Trinity River's West Fork. Thirty one
4:54
year old FedEx contracted driver Tanner Lynn Horner of Lake Worth led police to her
5:00
after being arrested earlier in the day and confessing. In that confession, Horner
5:05
claims to have accidentally hit Athena with his box truck after delivering a package to
5:12
the Strand home, later revealed to be a set of Barbie dolls the seven
5:15
year old was to be given for Christmas. Panicked and scared she would tell,
5:20
Horner went on he put Athena in the box truck, tried snapping her
5:27
neck but couldn't, so instead strangled her to death with his bare hands.
5:33
According to Sheriff Aiken, Athena is thought to have been killed about one hour
5:39
after her abduction, and other reports by the lawman suggest the injuries to the
5:44
seven year old's body are inconsistent with Horner's story. Tannerlyn Horner was charged with
5:50
capital murder and aggravated kidnapping. A couple weeks after his arrest, media outlets
5:57
discovered that Horner had also been charged with three counts of sexual assault of a
6:01
child under seventeen years old in Tarrant County. These three separate incidents took place
6:09
in twenty thirteen, apparently, and are unrelated to Athena's case. Now,
6:16
the person who allegedly killed Athena's strand is behind bars with little to no chance
6:23
of seeing the light of day until after trial, if at all, but
6:27
the compounding anguish the rabid public speculation has caused cannot be undone. Athena's father
6:34
and stepmother have been particularly hurt and during what was likely the worst time of
6:41
their lives. Even though many of the most vituperative and vitriolic comments about them
6:46
have been deleted, perhaps out of remorse or shame. Hopefully, at least
6:55
this is not a rare or isolated occurrence. Unfortunately. In fact, it
7:00
happened less than a year prior, in December twenty twenty one, when three
7:04
year old Lina sardar Kill disappeared, But because she remains missing to this day,
7:12
the hostile and baseless allegations have continued for much longer and are made with
7:17
much greater fervor, as the parents of the child are Afghan refugees, a
7:23
group that has been the target of extreme hate speech and violence in the United
7:28
States since the attack on New York's Twin Towers. On September eleventh, two
7:32
thousand and one, when San Antonio Police Chief William McManus and the officers under
7:46
his charge began searching for three year old Lina sardar Kill, he was hopeful
7:53
they'd acted fast, had spared absolutely no resource, and we're sure they'd find
7:59
witnesses who could point them in the right direction. But after a few days
8:03
hopes were dashed. Nothing was panning out other than a few witnesses who saw
8:11
Lena playing in and around the playground at the complex where she lived, the
8:16
Vias del Cabo apartments. No one came forward with anything that suggested where she
8:22
went or what happened to her. SAPD and the FBI alongside them, had
8:28
chased down every tip that came their way, no matter how improbable it might
8:31
have sounded. They even followed up on leads provided by psychics, to no
8:37
avail. Of course, FBI profilers were brought in to assess the type of
8:43
individual who would abduct the little girl, but apparently there were no suspects who
8:48
fit the mold. After hundreds of patrolman, detectives and agents scoured the Villas
8:56
del Cabo, the adjacent apartment complex, and a large perimeter of the surrounding
9:01
area, not so much as a clue emerged, besides the fact that a
9:05
San Antonio police dog picked up Lena's scent and lost it at the parking lot.
9:13
Though Rheas and Zarmina sardar Kill held out hope that their daughter would be
9:18
found, each day that passed chipped away a little more at it. During
9:24
a search for the three year old girl, on Thursday, December thirtieth,
9:28
twenty twenty one, a plastic bag of bones was found by volunteer searchers on
9:33
the ninety eight hundred block of Fredericksburg Road, in a small wooded area very
9:39
close to Lina's apartment complex. This led to rampant speculation by folks keeping up
9:46
with the case on social media, even though the missing child's remains would not
9:50
have been reduced to bone only ten days after her disappearance, particularly in the
9:56
cool weather. Like many other aspects of the case from minute one, the
10:01
online scrutiny did little to help and was in fact responsible for spreading misinformation about
10:09
nearly every detail, as folks seemingly made up things they presented as facts based
10:15
upon what they believed happened to Lena or what should be happening in the investigation.
10:22
A plainclothe that Chief McManus was forced to stop searching and hold a short
10:28
press briefing assuring the public that the bones had nothing to do with Lena's case.
10:33
It wasn't even clear if they were human at all. We could find
10:37
nothing more about them, so it isn't haphazard to assume that they were indeed
10:43
animal remains. It was neither the first nor last time the amateur sleuths would
10:50
live up to the adjective in their description. The necessary details to make an
10:56
informed decision not to speculate were readily available online, but reading past an article's
11:03
headline was perhaps counterintuitive to the deep rooted prejudices that were to come when the
11:09
speculation turned to hateful and xenophobic rants about conspiracies that made little to no sense
11:18
based upon nothing factual. Eventually, the threats of violence against the anguished parents
11:24
of the missing toddler would force police to cancel searches. But before it came
11:30
to that, in early twenty twenty two, a tip came in that caught
11:33
the eye of an ever watchful media. On January fifth, twenty twenty two,
11:50
and eleven person FBI Underwater Search and Evidence Response Team came to San Antonio.
11:58
Considered the best of the best, the divers wasted no time checking out
12:03
a tip the SAPD had received as they inspected a creek near Babcock and Hubner
12:09
Roads, a little more than two miles west of the sardar Kill home.
12:16
Though they would not share details of the tip that led them there, the
12:20
authorities did divulge that they found nothing. On January seventh, the Amber alert
12:26
for three year old Lina was canceled, and though the police did not mince
12:31
words when they said the investigation had not stopped, folks online began suggesting the
12:37
cops knew what happened and that a conspiracy was afoot. In reality, the
12:43
lack of the description of an abductor's vehicle, a usual requirement for the alerts,
12:48
likely played a key role in the decision to take it down. At
12:52
this point, Lina's face and description, anyway, were everywhere. Soon after
13:01
Lina sardar Kill went missing, the nonprofit Eagles Flight Advocacy and Outreach not only
13:07
joined in on the search, but also began giving the family support. Alongside
13:13
the local Afghan community. Eagle's Flight founder Pamela Allen organized searches that spread across
13:20
nearly thirty square miles of brushy fields and creek beds in San Antonio's northwest alongside
13:28
Leon Creek Greenway. When folks reported seeing vultures circling an area, Pamela would
13:35
organize a party to check it out. Although frustrated and saddened that their teams
13:41
never found anything, Pamela was relieved she never unzipped an old suit case or
13:46
lifted a discarded sheet of plywood to find Lina's body. Eagle's flight got countless
13:52
bad tips, as did the San Antonio Police, FBI and the sardar Kills,
13:58
from a man in Jordan who claimed Lina was in one of various cities
14:03
in California, leading Rhazon with promises his daughter would be back by Ramadon to
14:09
a tip that Lina had been buried in a vacant lot thick with trees,
14:13
dense bushes, and wild thistles off Fredericksburg Road. Neither tip led to anything
14:20
at all. On February seventeenth, twenty twenty two, it was announced that
14:28
the Islamic Center of San Antonio was increasing their offered reward from one hundred and
14:33
fifty thousand to two hundred thousand dollars, bringing the total reward to two hundred
14:39
and fifty thousand dollars the other fifty offered within days of the girl's disappearance by
14:45
crimestoppers. On a somber and emotional February twentieth, twenty twenty two, the
14:52
sardar Kill family observed Lina's fourth birthday. Though the occasion was difficult, Ryaz
15:00
and Zarmina still believed their daughter was alive, so did an investigator and his
15:05
team who the family requested to come in early on. Retired FBI from Project
15:13
Absentis came into the investigation in January of twenty twenty two. Pro bono and
15:18
former federal agent, private investigator and CEO of the group, Mark Painia commented
15:26
that his team had gathered quite a bit of information, but he was perplexed
15:30
that none of it had led to Lena's whereabouts or what might have happened to
15:35
her. She's just a precious little girl, and you know, I can't
15:37
imagine anybody that would have any nefarious or sinister thoughts about her. Paenya said,
15:45
We're very hopeful that she's still alive and we're going to continue searching for
15:50
her. But nine months after the disappearance, Paenya's men did discover something that
15:56
might have given the police the best lead they'd come upon yet. As they
16:02
scoured arrest records for individuals who had been charged with sexual crimes against miners,
16:07
the team at Project Absentis stumbled upon an arrest that piqued their interest. In
16:15
late summer twenty twenty two, a tip came into the National Center for Missing
16:18
and Exploited Children cyber Tipline. According to the Texas State Attorney General's Office quote,
16:26
the tip alledged the transmission of a video file of child pornography to an
16:32
online account that depicted a little girl who appeared to be between seven and nine
16:37
years old. The man's cell phone was located in his vehicle and searched.
16:41
An online account that matched the one reported on the tip line was found on
16:48
the device, according to investigators end quote. On September first, twenty twenty
16:55
two, Dost Mohammed Mohammed Omar was taken into custody in San Antonio's Medical Center
17:00
area. While the arrest was taking place, Omar spontaneously and without coercion,
17:07
told investigators that he did not make the video, but just sent it out
17:12
to the group, a statement that most likely can and will be admissible at
17:17
trial, should there be one. The thirty five year old man was charged
17:22
with possession with intent to promote child pornography and his bond was set at one
17:27
hundred thousand dollars. During a search warrant executed at Omar's home, child Exploitation
17:36
Unit investigators seized many electronic devices to be examined by a digital forensics team.
17:44
The team at Project Absentis learned not only did this arrest take place less than
17:49
one mile from the apartment of the sardar Kill family, but also that the
17:55
man once lived at the Villa's del Cabo, where Lena vanished. Further,
18:00
Dost Mohammed Mohammed Omar, the alleged child pornographer, was known by and familiar
18:07
to the sardar Kills. Though it's unknown to us if the San Antonio Police
18:15
and the FBI have yet exhausted this lead, it's doubtful since the arrest is
18:21
fairly recent. Although the public response to the disappearance of three year old Lina
18:27
sardar Kill was mostly positive and supportive of Rhyaz and Zarmina, a particularly loud,
18:34
hateful, and eventually threatening subset emerged at the get go. Lina's parents
18:42
were well aware of accusations against them and hurt by them. They began with
18:48
folks dipping their toes in the water with comments like I think there's more to
18:52
this story when referring to Zarmina's account of that afternoon. It escalated did quickly
19:00
as mob minded social media and message board commenters lit their torches and gathered their
19:07
pitchforks. First, Zarmina was dragged through the mud for leaving Lena to play
19:12
unsupervised, which wasn't really what happened at all. But reading a four hundred
19:18
word article or two was either too big an undertaking or the simple words within
19:23
too incomprehensible. Before knowing all the facts that the Sardark Hills were to attend
19:30
a very special dinner with family they hadn't seen in two years, one commenter
19:36
suggested that things weren't as they appeared. What I thought was strange was that
19:41
she was playing in that pretty dress and shoes. Most parents don't let them
19:45
play in their nice clothes, right unless you stop after going someplace. But
19:51
she was at her apartment. It's coded, But this person is planting the
19:55
seeds for someone with enough nerve to suggest Lena was fancied up to be given
20:00
away as a child bride. It took a couple hours, but several bigots
20:06
finally took that bait, as you'll see here soon. Here's another incredibly judgmental
20:11
and subjective verbatim Facebook comment that doesn't beat around the bush as much, left
20:18
on a post made by the San Antonio police on day one. The mom
20:22
didn't report her missing for like almost two hours, which I think was plenty
20:26
of time for her to stage this and or cover her tracks. How sad
20:32
the truth will reveal itself. And another I'm no detective, but I smell
20:37
another Casey Anthony situation. But I hope I am wrong and she is safe
20:41
and healthy. You most certainly are not a detective. Anyway, it got
20:48
much worse. I think that the parents probably killed their daughter two, especially
20:52
if the mom is pregnant with a boy. The father's interview sounds rehearsed and
20:57
full of lies. One read and another bizarre comment referred to a photo where
21:03
Lina wore gold bangles. If she had that much gold in her hands in
21:07
the missing day, I bet you that was the reason. It is not
21:11
wise thing to do for the child. And in response to that gold is
21:17
not as expensive there as it is here, apparently referring to the poor,
21:21
small and tribal village where the sardar Kill family come from. I have friends
21:26
who are from the Middle East, an Indian, etc. And their gold
21:30
is always real. No, you don't those bangles anyway, We're gold colored
21:37
blue plastic I'm sure they saw everything, but the community is keeping it contained.
21:44
Child Bride comes to mind, and referring to the birth of Rhyaz and
21:48
Zarmina's son six months after Lena disappeared, hopefully she won't sell this one.
21:56
Also enough already there are plenty of missing American children. Let's focus on them,
22:03
not some kid the father probably sold for money. And finally, you
22:07
need to understand how much of the world views your familial practice of selling off
22:12
your daughters to survive financially, regardless of the effects on the daughter horrific.
22:19
Maybe mom is in bad shape due to guilt. I pray for that child
22:23
and the soul of whoever arranged this. There are many more examples of the
22:30
ignorant generalizations and baseless allegations Zarmina and Reas faced all over the Internet, but
22:38
the point has been made. Eventually, the hurtful and xenophobic online comments turned
22:45
into something potentially physically dangerous. After countless large scale searches by law enforcement and
23:04
organizations like the Heidi Search Center and Eagles Flight Advocacy and Outreach, no evidence
23:11
pointing to the whereabouts of Lena Sardark Hill or what happened to her could be
23:17
found. The San Antonio police were diplomatic when they announced their decision to suspend
23:23
public searches and August of twenty twenty two, but the truth is social media
23:30
influencers and conspiracy theorists posing as volunteers while spreading false information in real time through
23:37
posts and tiktoks about supposed evidence they'd found, was among the reasons help from
23:45
civilians was mixed, but it's certainly not the only reason. Besides being bombarded
23:52
with messages accusing him of selling his daughter as a child bride, Rias barely
23:57
avoided being physically attacked when he was accosted by a stranger in the parking lot
24:03
after returning home from work. Luckily, neighbors swarmed in to help protect Rhyas
24:10
from the outsider. People continually knocked on the sardar killed door but ran before
24:17
it could be answered, and one particularly belligerent and threatening man repeatedly beat on
24:22
the door until Rhas answered. When he did, the man yelled at him
24:27
about his daughter's disappearance. When the agonized father finally broke and stood his ground,
24:34
the little man cowered and never returned, though he and Zarmina were constantly
24:41
bombarded with accusations of either direct or indirect responsibility, None of the harassers stopped
24:48
to consider not only the language barrier and the way the media sloppily handled that
24:55
problem, but also the differences in culture in afghan Inistan, Riaz and many
25:00
others who are in no way connected to the case have pointed out child abductions
25:06
were incredibly rare in the small village where they were from. The children were
25:11
almost always left to play unsupervised because everyone in the village was close knit.
25:18
There was no danger, at least not of kidnappings. If one did occur,
25:23
Riaz pointed out, it was almost always for ransom and the child is
25:29
eventually returned unharmed. He acknowledged the fact that sometimes poor families in Afghanistan sell
25:37
their children in order to eat, but this was something Rias did not need
25:41
to do. He was very well paid. Even if he wasn't well paid,
25:45
the loving father would never have sold or given away his little girl,
25:51
Lena, as anyone who spends the time to look for the many photos of
25:55
her and Rias will see, was the light of this man's life and of
26:00
Zarmina's. Because Zarmina Sardar kill was never seen on camera. Online salutes used
26:10
it as some sort of proof that she was responsible, that she felt guilty,
26:15
or didn't want people to see that she was emotionless. Those allegations or
26:21
supposed clues are nonsensical, but there's a reason anyway for this. Rias feared
26:27
Zarmina becoming a victim of a Taliban crackdown on women being seen or heard in
26:33
public spaces. He felt the need to protect his wife and his family from
26:40
retaliation. The Taliban had threatened their lives before because he worked alongside US forces
26:47
in Afghanistan. Speaking of which it should probably be noted that Riaz sardar Kill
26:55
has done more for the United States than most of its natural born citizens,
27:00
and yet still faces xenophobic insults, allegations, and physical threats from anonymous cheeto
27:07
dusted finger keyboard warriors who've likely never had to see the grave danger this man
27:12
has. YouTube shows and message boards continued to further the islamophobic narrative that the
27:21
family sold off their daughter for money or as a child bride. It is
27:26
shameful and counterproductive to finding this child, as are the conspiracy theories that are
27:33
focused on others. In one unhinged and unintelligible rant. On a social media
27:40
post thread, a woman posted several photos she took of a little girl who
27:45
maybe slightly resembles Lena sardar Kill and a man she was with, perhaps her
27:52
father or grandfather. Because she'd been traveling the country handing out Lena's missing persons
27:57
flyers and claimed this man who had the little girl began following her even though
28:04
he appears to have no idea she's taking pictures of him. The photos were
28:11
taken in Minnesota, she wrote, and Chief McManus not only knew Lena was
28:15
never abducted, but was also pulling a scam alongside Senator John Cornyn's assistant Wild.
28:25
It's never explained what this scam is, however, and she ends her
28:29
first of many comments in a very predictable way, go back to your own
28:34
country immediately. A woman just went to prison for faking her own kidnapping and
28:40
abduction. What should we do to Lena's parents? A comment by a different
28:45
poster read pretty sure one of SAPD officer abducted her. Even Pamela Allen of
28:53
Eagle's Flight advocacy and outreach became the focus of unhinged individuals because she was being
29:00
harassed. Pamela's husband hired a bodyguard to go out with searchers, and the
29:07
harassment got so bad she was forced to call off a few She and the
29:12
searchers, who were looking for a three year old child, were being stalked
29:18
and filmed. In fact, as Pamela's mother was dying from leukemia at her
29:22
home, she was being stalked. Her son, too, became the target
29:29
of such folks. Pamela pointed out the transparent bigotry that these dangerous individuals displayed.
29:37
What if she had blonde hair and blue eyes? What if his last
29:40
name was Smith? Would you be saying that stuff? Absolutely not. She
29:45
went on to point out that Rheas was brought over here for he and his
29:49
family's safety after serving this country. Essentially, then this happens, she said,
29:57
Rias and Zarmina too disillusioned. We came from Afghanistan to have a happy
30:03
and safe life here, but it didn't happen. My whole life was ruined.
30:10
The US was different than I thought it was. Riaz said, if
30:15
he had stayed he went on, then maybe Lena would still be with him.
30:22
Six months after, Lena disappeared. When their third child was born,
30:26
Zarmina and Rias struggled to celebrate, struggled to feel joy. Their second child
30:33
sometimes yells for his sister when he sees a little girl who looks like her.
30:40
Zarmina dreams of her daughter calling out for her help. She'd give whoever
30:45
took her whatever they want, the mother told a reporter for a local television
30:48
station. Rias struggled to put into words how he felt, but tried.
30:56
He said that Lina was eighty percent of their lives. The home is now
31:00
empty and lonely. The family has not lost hope and continues to search for
31:07
Lena, though seemingly baffled authorities to believe that Lena's case can be solved no
31:15
matter the outcome. On the one year anniversary of her disappearance, the San
31:21
Antonio Police released never before seen footage of Lena moments before she vanished. Taken
31:27
by a residence security camera, Lena can be seen beginning to wander off from
31:34
her mother and brother. It was taken lead detective on Lena's case, Jeremy
31:40
Voltz, says at four forty nine PM in the clip, though they did
31:45
not release this particular part, the detective says, Lena can be seen leaving
31:51
the camera's line of sight. When the next piece of footage is captured eighteen
31:56
minutes later, Lena is nowhere to be seen. The FBI's current objective,
32:04
Detective Voltz, says, is determining what was happening, who was there during
32:09
that nearly twenty minute gap in footage. We've received hundreds of leads that we've
32:15
followed up on, he added. Unfortunately, none of the leads we have
32:19
received have led us definding Lena. Until she's found, no person and no
32:24
theory can be ruled out. San Antonio's Special Victims Unit specializes in sex assault
32:32
crimes. Two SVU agents have been assigned to Lena's case full time. San
32:40
Antonio Police Chief William McManus said that there is a person of interest in the
32:45
disappearance, but for now and until new information comes to light, the department
32:52
is left empty handed. According to Pamela Allen, besides the harassment and bad
32:59
faith Tiktoker's posing as volunteers, the public searches were called off because authorities believed
33:06
that Lena was no longer in Texas. Retired FBI agent Mark Paenya said that
33:13
he believes his team at Project Absentis have determined that Lena left the area near
33:19
her mother voluntarily, having walked away with individuals she trusted. Witnesses, Penya
33:25
went on, saw the little girl walking with various people that day. Perhaps
33:31
she was lured into a vehicle and taken away, but there was no indication
33:37
she was snatched by someone lurking in the shadows. As Penya put it,
33:42
the police are crystal clear when expressing one belief that someone who has yet to
33:47
come forward saw something that will break the investigation wide open, something that will
33:53
either bring Lena back to her parents or put them on the right track to
33:58
finding out what happened. So Riaz and Zarmina sardar Kill might have answers.
