On January 25, 2017, three-year-old Briana Pereira was reported missing from Hialeah, Florida, along with her siblings, after being abducted by their non-custodial parents, Lester Pereira Sr. and Rosa Martinez Diaz. At the time, the Florida Department of Children and Families (DCF) had been granted custody of the children, but shortly before they were to be taken into protective care, the parents fled with Briana, her 11-year-old sister Roselyn, and 13-year-old brother Lester Jr.
Briana is described as a Hispanic female of Nicaraguan descent, with brown hair and brown eyes. Her parents are believed to have possibly fled to Nicaragua, where they have familial ties. The children were considered at high risk due to the circumstances surrounding their abduction. Authorities have been actively seeking any information that could help locate the Pereira children, but as of now, the family remains missing.
The case has drawn attention because of the serious concerns for the children's welfare, given that they were to be placed in protective custody due to undisclosed concerns. Despite multiple efforts and public appeals for information, the whereabouts of Briana and her siblings remain unknown. Authorities continue to investigate, urging anyone with knowledge of the family's location to come forward.
