Summary
- Roshin Ali fled her Tennessee home at 13, fearing her father would kill her
- Officer Tyler Schrupp helped search for Ali in 2010 but never met her then
- Ali and Schrupp reunited years later as colleagues at the sheriff's department
In 2010, 13-year-old Roshin Ali fled her Jackson, Tennessee home, fearing her father would kill her. Among the officers assigned to search for her was then-26-year-old Tyler Schrupp, who never actually met Ali during the investigation.
Twelve years later, fate brought them together again when Ali, now an adult, began working at the local sheriff's department, unaware that one of her colleagues was the officer who had once been involved in her case. The two soon struck up a conversation and felt an immediate connection. As they got to know each other, Ali opened up about her traumatic childhood, and the details sounded eerily familiar to Schrupp.
The pair realized their unexpected shared history and began dating. In August 2024, they got engaged and now share a five-month-old son. They plan to marry next year, a testament to the power of second chances and the unpredictable ways life can bring people together.
