Sarah Hillridge:  How long have you been doing this , Dr. Reid ?
Dr. Spencer Reid: Five years , seven months , and nineteen days .
Sarah Hillridge: In your experience , what normally happens ?
Dr. Spencer Reid: Charlie was _ eight _ when he was taken , which means developmentally , he was in middle childhood . He had a stronger sense of right and wrong and a growing understanding of his place in the world . Mentally , he had the ability to talk about his thoughts and feelings , while having less focus on himself and more concern for others .

Dr. Spencer Reid: A mother like you who- who did all this , I - I do . I 'm a doctor . I put my faith in facts and statistical probabilities . But today , eight parents are gon na have closure . Three children are going home with their families because you believed your son was alive . It 's as close to a miracle as I 've ever seen .
