Best places to look: Anywhere, but maybe in a fast-food drive through or a roadside rest.

Anniversary Shadows

Time doesn't erase the sorrow from the kidnapping of Juliani Cardenas by Jose Esteban Rodriguez. The first anniversary of this tragedy, an adult suicide and a child murdered, when the vehicle plunged into the Delta-Mendota Canal, is a tragic reminder that Juliani was denied the right to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.   

 I've deleted Amber Alerts posts more than a year old with the click of computer keys.  Death of innocents leaves anniversary shadows that haunt family and friends.

Taylor Vo Amber Alert San Jose California

No matter how often I say this is my last post to blogger, don’t believe me! Something stirs a wave of fear for the endangered child and a near-hated for the abductor with each new local Amber alert. It’s been hours since Tri Le abducted Taylor Vo from her San Jose home. This South Bay city of more than a million people is an easy freeway commute to Nevada, Oregon, Arizona—maybe on to Mexico. Part premonition, part mystery-writer syndrome, I feel an overwhelming fear for this child I’ve never met. The abductor is also a stranger to me, but somehow I visualize him pumping gas at a quick stop with this twelve-year old girl partially hidden or buying fast food from a smiling, unsuspecting drive-through attendant.

Look at the website pictures. If you’re driving, don’t be afraid to report a look-alike driver who’s staying within the posted speed limits when everyone else is speeding. When you gas up this weekend, focus on the vehicles near you. Help find Taylor before it’s too late.

Amber Alert canceled for Cristina Ramirez

GOOD NEWS! Not all Amber Alert cancellation end in death like the search for Madeline Samman Fay, the toddler abducted by her father and Juliani Cardenas kidnapped by his father, Jose Esteban Rodriguez. Original news articles proclaim that Christina Ramirez, 13, abducted from Hollister by her father, Marcelo Ramirez, was found safe when the white Honda van was stopped near San Bernadino, almost 400 miles away. But was she safe? No. She was endangered by her father who allegedly assaulted her four days before the August 30 kidnapping.

Grateful thanks to the unnamed witness who spotted the van after she had read the Amber Alert sign in San Bernadino, San Benito County, four hundred miles south of Hollister. Keep your eyes open. You could save a child’s life.

Madeline Samaan Fay Autopsy

Autopsy results for Madeline Samaan Fay, two-year old toddler abducted by her father, Mourad Samaan, gives mixed cause of death as two gunshot wounds to her head and carbon monoxide poisoning.

What causes a man described as a “loving father” to become an executioner?  Rage? Revenge? Retaliation? We’ll never know. All we know is that he killed his innocent daughter near Grizzly Flats, California after her mother received full custody.

Madeline Samaan Fay and father found dead in 4Runner

Madeline Samaan Fay, a two-year old, and her father who abducted her were found dead as I knew they would be. Chalk it up to instinct from following Amber Alerts or from reading too many mystery novels. No matter how I knew, the results are the same. The FBI hasn’t released the cause of death, but common sense says this was a murder-suicide event.

Someday I’ll write about the dark side of this crime. For now, it’s better to go on with life and hope we don’t see a copycat performance by others struggling with custody battles.

AMBER ALERT for Madeline Samaan-Fay

I can’t shake the thought that I’ve seen this abductor—the shaved clean-cut version—walking alone through an East Bay Wal-Mart parking lot several weeks ago. I hope I’m mistaken.

Click the link below to see his picture. Maybe you’ve seen Madline or her father, Mourad "Moni" Samaan or his green Toyota 4Runner, California license plate No. 3XRM111.

Missing Fremont Teen-Where’s the Amber Alert?

Miloshi Mehta, 15-year old Mission San Jose high school junior went missing on Sunday, August 7, 2011. She was last seen about 8:30 p.m. when she went for a walk around Lake Elizabeth.
 

Miloshi’s family said they suspected she may have walked away to meet a man whom she had corresponded with on the internet. If they had lied, feigned ignorance, or shrugged their shoulders to questions about circumstances surrounding her absence, hinting that she could have been abducted while walking, perhaps an Amber Alert would be flashing on nearby freeway signs. You might be scanning faces of every dark-haired, black eyed teen on the BART, looking for Miloshi, worrying, maybe praying that she would be found unharmed. Since her family told the truth—that she could have been lured away by an internet sexual predator—Amber Alert does not apply.

I hope she’s found unharmed. If not, will a California lawmaker propose a Miloshi Alert to assist in locating teens lured away by internet sexual predators?

False Amber Alert kidnapped teen from Antioch, California

Did you notice that I didn’t post this Amber Alert as I have others? Why? Because my sleuthing skills whirled a clue in front of my eyes that the fictional crime-solving Jessica Fletcher would have noticed immediately.

“The robber [Eric Lerone Walker] ordered him [16-year old] at gunpoint to drive the Yukon, police and Holmes said.” You say, so what? Lots of 16-year olds drive. Here’s a second look. Robber takes car keys from barbershop owner, then points sawed-off shotgun at a young man entering the shop and demands the youth drive the owner’s 1996 Yukon as a get-away vehicle. Duh? The Jessica Fletcher question: How did the robber know the young man he “abducted” could drive? As sure as 1+1=two, I knew Jessica Fletcher would spot this pair as friends who partnered this robbery.

I could have posted this blog within minutes of the Amber Alert, but then the police might suspect I knew something about the robbery instead of being an avid mystery fan. Even though I like to think I’m a super sleuth, this was a faked kidnapping so clear that even Jessica Fletcher’s nephew could have figured it out while she was off in Cabot Cove writing another mystery book.

Good news – Amber Alert victim Elijah Rivas found safe

With all the sadness related to the Rodriguez-Cardinas kidnapping and murder-suicide near Patterson, California, here’s today’s good news for a baby kidnapped by an estranged father in Fresno County, California.

The abduction of Elijah Rivas, a nine-month old baby boy, occurred Saturday during a visit by his father, nineteen-year old Edgar Ramos. Elijah has been found, safe and in good condition, near the father's home about an hour’s drive south of the Wasco abduction site.

Nancy Grace enters search for Juliani Cardenas

Nancy Grace, noted television crime commentator, enters the hunt for missing Juliani Cardenas, 4, allegedly kidnapped from his grandmother’s arms by Jose Esteban Rodriguez, 27, near Patterson, California. Nancy Grace’s tenacity and fervor equals a southern hunting dog following a scent and brings global attention to this missing boy.


Mr. Rodriguez, authorities are searching the Delta-Mendota canal for your Toyota Corolla. If you’re alive, somewhere far away from this canal, please listen to Tabitha, Juliani’s mother, and drop him off at the nearest fire station. If you want the world to know your side of this story, call Nancy Grace.


UPDATE: Friday, January 21, 2011


Authorities say a third car has been pulled from Delta-Mendota canal, but it's red. This canal is beginning to look like a repository for stolen vehicles.

Amber Alert

Praying for Juliani

My blog is informative or humorous, or both. Not today. The sign on I-580 between Livermore Boulevard and First Street exits, usually dark, is bright yellow with an AMBER ALERT. I’d read about the abduction yesterday, but reading the sign sent cold chills down my spine on this sunny 60-degree day.

Jose Esteban Rodriguez, 27, allegedly kidnapped Juliani Cardenas, 4, from his home near Patterson. Snatched him from his grandmother’s arms, the news said. Rodriguez was last seen driving a silver Toyota Corolla with license plate number 6HBW445. The vehicle had oversized wheels and a "donut" spare tire on the front passenger side. So how many cars fit this description? Maybe none. Perhaps the plates have been switched. Perhaps the tire has been repaired. Perhaps the car is hidden in a garage. Perhaps, perhaps, perhaps. All I know is that the Amber Alert sign sends the chilling message that a little boy who should be home with his mother and grandmother is missing.
