SOLVED: Karmen Neilson Found in River After 6 Years of Searching!

Video Description

On November 20, 2016, Karmen Neilson was last seen driving southbound on River Road out of Sacramento, CA in her silver 2012 Honda Civic. It was an ordinary day. She didn’t pack a bag, leave a note, or indicate any plans to disappear. But then she was gone. No calls, no sightings, no clues. Just an empty seat at the table and an unbearable silence that followed her family everywhere. The pain of losing a loved one is immeasurable. But the agony of not knowing what happened—that hollow, haunting question of “where are they?”—is a wound that never heals. For six long years, the family and friends of Karmen Neilson lived in that void. Karmen, a mother, a sister, a friend, had vanished without a trace. Every day since has been a battle against uncertainty, and every passing moment has carried the weight of unanswered questions. Was it an accident? Could she have gone off the road? Was she somewhere they hadn’t thought to look? Holidays became moments of mourning. Her absence loomed over birthdays and quiet family dinners, a reminder of the life that once was. For years, the Sacramento River was a suspected resting place for Karmen’s car. But this week, Adventures with Purpose arrived with a mission: to find those who are missing in the area, and to give Karmen’s family the answers they’ve deserved for far too long. Armed with state-of-the-art sonar and an unwavering determination to bring families closure, the team began their work. The Sacramento River Delta, known for its treacherous waters and silt-covered depths, posed significant challenges. Yet each scan of the riverbed brought them closer to uncovering the truth. Then, on this day, a moment of clarity emerged—another large object appeared on the sonar, another car in the long line of dozens already found, partially buried, waiting to be discovered. Could this be her? The divers prepared themselves for what they might find, knowing the discovery could confirm long-held fears. As they approached the site, the truth came into focus: a silver Honda Civic, upside down, concealed by years of debris. Its license plate read “6XBB720,” confirming what they hoped to find. WE FOUND KARMEN She was no longer lost. Her family would finally have the answers they’d prayed for, though the pain of her loss would remain. For six years, Karmen’s loved ones lived with an unbearable question. Today, Adventures with Purpose gave them an answer. This discovery is more than just a resolution to a cold case—it’s the end of years of heartache and the beginning of a journey toward healing. Karmen’s story is one of many. The Sacramento River has become a silent graveyard for countless mysteries. During this search, the team discovered dozens of submerged vehicles, each one holding the potential to solve another case. Among them are the stories of Julie Vessigault, John Atkins, and Norma Houghland with her two sons. These are the families still waiting, still holding on to hope, just as Karmen’s family did. 🎬..
