Aaron Williams In The Final Scenes Of The Movie
For most of the duration ofAmber Alert, it seemed like Aaron Williams, the man who kidnapped Charlotte, would get away with the crime.

After he succeeds at getting Charlotte to his house, William realizes that he was followed when he receives a phone call from his pharmacy telling him to pick up his medication.

What Shane And Jaq Found In William’s House
Shane and Jaq manage to get into Shane’s house at the end ofAmber Alertand find some shocking things. The kidnapper’s house is a perfect reflection of what type of person he is, given the macabre decor which creates a sense that dark things have happened there. Some of the rooms in the house are covered in mattresses as a way of preventing anyone from hearing that there are children inside.
Jaq also came across a scrapbook that had a list of children’s names. Perhaps the most shocking thing she saw in the scrapbook was a picture of a little girl called Olympia lying down on a bed. Initially, Jaq thought Olympia was merely sleeping, but upon further inspection, she figured out that she was actually dead.The things in William’s house proved that Charlotte wasn’t his first or only victimand that he might have been abducting children for years before he was finally caught.
Why Jaq Wanted To Rescue Charlotte In Amber Alert
From the time Jaq got the AMBER Alert and spotted William’s black Toyota Camry, she had a feeling he was the one the police were looking for. Determined to catch him and rescue Charlotte,Jaq asked Shane to follow the car just in case he really was the one with the little girl. Shane was understandably confused about why Jaq was willing to put her life at risk for someone she didn’t even know.
For Jaq, it was about doing the right thing. In a way, rescuing Charlotte was about the experience she had gone through with her child. Jaq confided in Shane that she had given birth to a stillborn baby. Because of this,she didn’t want Charlotte’s mother to go through the same thing that she had. If it weren’t for her bravery, William would probably have killed Charlotte, and her mother would never have seen her again.

Jaq dropped one of her Airpods in William’s car so she could listen in to his conversation.
So when they get to his house, Shane calls William and pretends to be a pharmacist to lure him out and get Charlotte.
While listening in, she heard that he would be picking up a prescription at a pharmacy, which is how she got his number. At some point during their journey, they got an alert saying that Charlotte had been spotted, so they gave up on trying to find her. Fortunately,Jaq deduced that it was William who had called the policeand given them the wrong information to take the heat off him.
