Missing and Murdered Children

Update: May 4, 2008:

First of all I want to say that initially police thought Charles Ray Norris, III was the male involved in the abduction of the two Herrera children. Later they changed the suspect involved to Raymond Richard Bowen.

The suspects were located at about 2 p.m. this afternoon and the children were located unharmed. CPS returned the children to their temporary foster home.

There was a little more information give regarding the history of this case. Apparently Jennifer Simmons is the mother to 5 children with the last name of Herrera. Also, she had not been caring for the children for at least the past year - the grandparents and other neighbors had been caring for the children. Recently the grandparents abandoned the children according to the temporary foster parent, Andrea Smith.

Smith has been working with CPS to obtain custody of the 5 children. The children were recently removed from their mother’s care.

Two-year-old Everlyse Cabrera was reported missing on June 10, 2006 by her foster parents. They claim that Everlyse must have climbed up on a stool and opened the deadbolt lock and wandered off. Reports claim she was not wearing any shoes at the time of her disappearance. The foster parents are no longer cooperating with the investigation. Her biological parents traveled from California to Nevada to aid in the search for their missing daughter. If you see Everlyse please call the Las Vegas Police Department or 1-800-THE LOST.

The above excerpt was taken from a previous blog entry. Much has happened since Everlyse’s disappearance. Her biological parents sued the foster parents and the county and an undisclosed settlement was reached. Part of the monies have been earmarked for the continued search. The foster parents did not have to pay anything out-of-pocket because at the time of Everlyse’s disappearance foster parents were insured so the insurance company paid the settlement.

Recently, when the biological parents and the foster parents were in court there was a physical altercation between them. Everlyse’s mother was seen on camera begging the former foster parents to tell her where her daughter is and the foster parents refused to respond so Mr. Cabrera assaulted the foster father.

There are new developments in this case and Everlyse may have been found - alive.
