Summary based on the NamUs case record (MP12730) and 7 other sources
Alicia Padilla, a 2-year-old girl, was last seen on January 1, 1985, in Miami, Florida. At the time of her disappearance, she was reported to have been abducted by her non-custodial father, Felipe Padilla. Alicia’s parents were involved in a custody dispute, and Felipe took her without permission, raising alarms. Despite efforts to locate Alicia, she has not been seen since the day of her abduction.

Authorities suspect that Felipe may have taken Alicia out of the country, possibly to Honduras, but these leads have not been confirmed. Due to the long-standing nature of the case, Alicia’s information has been included in various national missing persons databases. Over the years, law enforcement agencies have continued to search for her, using age-progressed images in an attempt to show what Alicia might look like today.

The case remains unsolved, and Alicia’s current whereabouts are unknown. Law enforcement encourages anyone with information regarding her disappearance to come forward in the hopes of reuniting her with her family after nearly four decades.

Last Seen: Jan 1, 1985
