Bambi reunited with Keyan and Logan
Results: Solved. At around 9:25pm on the night of the broadcast, an anonymous tip resulted in David, Keyan, and Logan being located in Raleigh, North Carolina. After three months, he was arrested and extradited back to California, charged with multiple felony counts. He served time for child abduction and was later released. He was ordered to make restitution for the thousands of dollars that Bambi spent searching for Keyan and Logan.
Five days after the broadcast, a Tracey police officer escorted Keyan and Logan back to Bambi. They were flown back to California on a jet provided by the owner of the San Diego Chargers. At 10:05pm, they were joyfully reunited with Bambi. She has reported that they have happily adjusted to their life back with her.
Following the reunion, David's mother attempted to seek custody of Keyan and Logan. She claimed that he had abducted them after Bambi's fifteen-year-old son from a previous marriage threatened to kill Logan. Bambi denied these allegations.
Keyan and Logan have both since graduated from high school. They are still in contact with David and his family.
