Overview
- Hall, 80, was found safe Wednesday at NewYork-Presbyterian Hospital, five days after she vanished from the Atlantic Avenue–Barclays Center subway station in Brooklyn.
- Emergency personnel located Hall in the same area she disappeared, confirming she had been admitted to the hospital on Friday without identification.
- Hall’s dementia and lack of ID led to her admission as a Jane Doe, preventing hospital staff from connecting her to her family until Wednesday.
- Family and NYPD had circulated Hall’s physical description and appealed for tips via social media and the Crime Stoppers hotline during the multi-day search.
- Hall performed with The Platters under the stage name Sandra Dawn after joining the group in 1965, and her family says she is now receiving care and is stable.
