What has been your biggest first-hand real life mystery yet to be answered?

Strange thing happened to me. So I went to jail last year for about a month. While in jail, the officers called me out and showed me the mugshot of a girl that looked alot like me and asked what her name was. I had no idea. When I was released, my boyfriend picked me up and said "So, you didn't escape, huh?" and I just thought he was being playful. When I got home my landlord said the same thing "Oh! We'd thought you escaped!". My boyfriends cousin made a similar remark. I was a bit baffled so I asked what was up with that.

Apparently, it was regarding a psychotic girl that my sister knew. I'd met her a few times but she was literally mute and spent hours staring at walls, slowly slipping into psychosis. I'd never talked to her and I really couldn't, even if I'd wanted to. One day, while I was in jail, she left my sister's house barefoot and wandered into the woods (In 40 degree weather). At the end of the woods was a mental hospital where she entered and wouldn't talk to anyone there and they knew something was seriously off. They couldn't get her to speak so they searched her pockets and found a piece of paper with my full name, my landlord's house number, and my address.

The police investigated this, believing that this girl was me because she wouldn't answer them. they called my landlord and family trying to figure this out but were told I was in jail. Cue the police thinking I'd broken out. However, a quick search proved that i was still in the jail.

But it gets stranger. The police searched the woods she'd come from and they found a bunch of torn out notebook papers. They were some kind of letters about me written by a male. The letters talked about how I was just a figment of his imagination and weird, pokemon related things comparing me to a Mew. He also did a "nude drawing" of me which I never got to see, but I think it would have creeped me the hell out.

To this day I have absolutely no idea what any of this means.
