Lester Pereira Jr. Missing Person Case

Lester Pereira Jr., a 13-year-old from Hialeah, Florida, has been missing since January 25, 2017. Lester, along with his siblings Roselyn and Briana, was taken by their non-custodial parents, Rosa Martinez and Lester Pereira Sr., just days before the Florida Department of Children and Families (DCF) was scheduled to take custody of the children. The children were last seen on this date and had reportedly been missing from school for two days prior to the scheduled intervention by DCF.

It is believed that the family may have fled to Nicaragua, as they have connections there, and authorities have suggested that they were likely trying to avoid the custody transfer. Lester Jr. was 13 years old at the time of his disappearance, with black hair and brown eyes. His siblings, Roselyn, who was 11, and Briana, who was 3, were also part of the abduction. The children are considered at risk, given the circumstances surrounding the case.

The Hialeah Police Department has been working on this case since the family's disappearance, but despite efforts, the family's whereabouts remain unknown. Authorities urge anyone with information to contact law enforcement as the children’s safety is a primary concern. The case is still open and is part of a broader search for missing children in Florida.
