Son reacts after learning mom was missing person in Pearl River County

We’re learning even more about the mysterious disappearance of a Pearl River County woman.

As we first reported yesterday, the woman who was believed to be missing for 40 years was recently found alive in a Texas nursing home.

And her son, who also lives in Texas, is speaking to News 25 about his reaction and feelings learning his mom, Janis Bullock, had a whole other life and identity no one knew about.

David Streety says he was adopted by his parents from Charity Hospital in New Orleans right after his birth.

Streety says his mom told him she had no living family when questioned about relatives.

Despite his shock and anger, Streety says he still loves his mom. He says she was a great mother, but is now looking to find his birth family, which is raising even more questions. “That’s what I was told by my dad and mom purchased me for money and I was like I don’t know if this is true. And my wife and I started looking and there’s no records of me being adopted anywhere so I don’t know if somebody took me from a good family or a bad family and purchased me. That’s what got me more upset with her than anything else.”

Streety says his plan is to send his DNA to the site 23 and Me and see what happens.
