Boca Raton woman contacted family relatives two weeks after going missing
Boca Raton, Florida – In a turn of events that has both relieved and alarmed the South Florida community, Bayla Swid, a resident of Boca Raton who had been missing since July 15, 2023, has made contact with her family. The last known sighting of Swid was in Miami, in the company of a 44-year-old unidentified man. This mysterious individual, who has been known to use the aliases Robert Davis and Bradley Davis, appears to be involved in a case that has suddenly taken a dark turn.
Utilizing the far-reaching power of social media, the Swid family made an announcement concerning the elusive contact with Bayla. The update, however brief, has provided some solace but also raised new questions about her sudden disappearance.
Swid, employed as a bartender at the Loch Bar in Boca Raton, has not reported for work nor attended her summer classes since her disappearance on July 15. Colleagues and professors alike deemed this behavior highly suspicious, as it is uncharacteristic for Swid to neglect her responsibilities or shirk her commitments.
In an emotionally charged post on Instagram, the family reported that Robert Davis allowed Bayla to call them. The call, however, was described as “brief and extremely unlike her with what she was saying,” further mystifying those who know her well.
On July 27, a desperate plea was made by Bayla Swid’s family and friends through various social media platforms, seeking assistance in locating the missing Florida native. In addition to the anxiety over her whereabouts, the family revealed disturbing financial irregularities connected to the unidentified man. He had allegedly maxed out Swid’s credit cards, emptied her father’s joint bank account, and fraudulently used her identity to open new credit cards, swiping them over the limit.
What began as a missing person case has now evolved into a complex financial fraud investigation. The family’s updated post revealed that the police have removed Swid from the missing persons list, following the brief contact. Nevertheless, the authorities are vigorously pursuing the investigation, which appears to be unveiling an intricate web of deceit that has spanned several years and has links to various cities across the nation.
