There are many theories to Amelia's disappearance . Theses theories were given in 1939-1945. One theory was that she was flying around the pacific Ocean and her plane disappeared. Another belief is that Amelia was a spy on a mission authorized by President Franklin Roosevelt and was captured.Another theory is that she purposely crashed her plane into the Pacific Ocean.The other theory is that then she was captured by the Japanese, and was forced to broadcast on GIs was a “Tokyo Rose” during World War ll. The final theory I found is that she then lived on a island in the South Pacific with a native fisherman.

Since no one really knows what happened and there are many theories out there it makes people curious as to what happened.
