Summary based on the NamUs case record (MP72014) and 5 other sources
On October 6, 2019, Brooke Roberts, a 9-year-old girl, went missing along with her parents, John Roberts and Julie Englehart, from Hesperia, California. The family had been living in a Motel 6 in the area after returning to Hesperia from Ozark, Alabama, where they had moved in 2017. The move back to California occurred in 2019, and they were last known to be in the High Desert region before their sudden disappearance. Julie had mentioned to a relative that she had secured a job cleaning used trailers and that they were planning to relocate to an area near Spring Valley Lake. However, after this conversation, no further contact was made by any family member.

The circumstances surrounding the disappearance remain unclear. There were no immediate reports of foul play, and the family was not officially reported missing until 2021, a significant time after their last known sighting. Despite efforts by the San Bernardino County Sheriff’s Department, no leads have surfaced, and the family's whereabouts remain unknown. Brooke, who would now be older, has been the subject of age-progressed imagery to aid in the search efforts.

Their disappearance has left investigators and the community puzzled, as there has been no concrete evidence of what may have happened or why they vanished without a trace. The case continues to be an open investigation, and authorities are seeking any information that could shed light on their whereabouts.
