Ernest John Lacap Macadaeg, a three-year-old boy, was last seen in Davis, California on January 18, 2012. At the time of his disappearance, he was an Asian male with brown hair and brown eyes. Known by the nickname "EJ," he was reportedly abducted by his non-custodial father, Honest Juan Cayanan Macadaeg. A felony warrant for the abduction was issued for Honest Juan on July 23, 2012.
Authorities believe that Honest Juan, who was 40 years old at the time, may have taken his son to Manila, Philippines. Honest Juan is described as an Asian male with black hair and brown eyes. He has several distinctive tattoos, including a yin-yang symbol on his back, a snake on his shoulder blade, and another tattoo on the back of his neck. He may use the aliases "John" or "John Boy."
The National Center for Missing & Exploited Children has an age-progressed photo of Ernest John to show what he may have looked like at age 14. The case is being handled by the Contra Costa County District Attorney's Office. Anyone with information regarding the whereabouts of Ernest John or Honest Juan Macadaeg is encouraged to contact the authorities.Last Seen: Jan 18, 2012
