I PROD'd this in April for the following reason: Single-event BLP article of an otherwise low-profile individual. No lasting effects as a result of this occurrence - no policies, laws, or customs arose as a result of this. This is undeniably newsworthy (or was at the time), but it is not encyclopedic.
PROD was declined: Prod declined, but feel free to AFD. It's stretching WP:BLP1E to breaking point to claim it when the "one event" in question was 25 years long
I disagree. Essentially, this woman was briefly newsworthy for re-appearing after being missing for 25 years. Her brief newsworthiness arose from her being found, not from the entire 25 years she was gone. Otherwise, she is a low-profile individual of no particular note. There is no ongoing coverage in any available media of her or her situation. ♠

Comment: This is a case where the focus should should be on the event (her becoming lost and re-discovery) rather than the individual. That said, I don't see any indication that the case has generated any
WP:LASTING long-term significance. Personally though I think it'd be a shame to have to delete this article; it's an interesting encyclopaedic topic which may actually be revisited in wider discourse in the future. --
