LA LA - Keiosha Felix, 15, Duson, 30 April 2012

[GulfCoastKAT]

Not Keiosha (or Crystal)

"The remains were from an adult male and female that more than likely originated from disturbed graves from a cemetary, and that they were over ten years old."

Wonder if the unnamed missing person is Keiosha?

[staycalm]

I would think the name not being released could be because of being a minor?

 

[quueenie]

I sure hope it's her... with all of the craziness surrounding her disappearance, I believe she was sold into a sex ring. Didn't they have someone else who went missing from one of those state homes?

 

[Merry]

I'm really hoping this is Keiosha, too. I think they would probably let us know if it's Keiosha as her disappearance is a highish profile case.

 

[bessie]

I truly hope the missing person is Keiosha, but if nothing else, this could lead to new information about her. raying:

Also, if the MP isn't KF, who is it????

 

[mpnola]

Does anyone recognize any of the arrested as a last name that was associated with her? Would she still be a minor?

 

[Merry]

I did check yesterday and there was no last names of the people associated with Keiosha's disappearance matching any of the people arrested in the Baton Rouge human trafficking ring. I'm hesitant to believe this is Keiosha, but I am sure glad for whoever being rescued.

Keiosha and Crystal are in two related articles on The Advertiser.
Missing persons not forgotten
January 1, 2015
http://www.theadvertiser.com/story/news/local/2015/01/01/missing-persons-forgotten/21157943/

The two- and three-year anniversaries of their disappearances are fast approaching, and Crystal Grebinger and Keiosha Felix are still missing. If progress has been made recently in the cases of Felix and Grebinger, the two missing persons from the Lafayette area, it hasn't been made public.
"The investigation remains ongoing."

It's difficult to maintain the public's attention for long-term missing persons cases, said Charlie Shunick, CEO and executive director of Resource Association for Missing People, a nonprofit group in Lafayette. Long-term is defined as five years, Shunick says, but in reality it's "more like a couple months."

The cases of two missing Lafayette Parish women — Crystal Grebinger and Kieosha Felix — while different, are representative of the 243 open missing persons cases in Louisiana.

Mystery lingers three years after Duson teenager disappeared; deputy says tips have dried up over the last two years
May 11, 2015

A mother at 14, Keiosha was in state custody and on a weekend pass to visit her paternal aunt, Patricia Andrus, at her Duson home when she disappeared. Her daughter, who is now almost 4 years old, has been in state custody since.

“Three years and not a word. Nothing. It’s just unbelievable to us,” said Lena Lewis, Keiosha’s maternal aunt. “We just sit there like, ‘Where is she?’ We’re like, ‘Red, where are you? Where are you?’ ”

The case is open but “inactive,” especially since tips have dried up over the last two years, said Capt. John Babin, Lafayette Parish Sheriff’s Office spokesman.

At the time of her disappearance, Keiosha had turned 15 years old three weeks earlier and was living in a now-shuttered state-run home for teen mothers in Lafayette. Keiosha’s daughter was about 9 months old, and the teenager’s mother was in jail.
Although law enforcement has never labeled Keiosha’s disappearance as the result of child sex trafficking, “All aspects of this case are being considered and looked into,” Babin said.

Where are you Keiosha?

Someone knows.

Thinking of you and your baby.

 

[quueenie]

It's amazing to me how botched up the investigation was, and it seemed like it was botched on purpose. It's a tragedy of the system.

 

[mpnola]

Oh, baby girl. My heart breaks for you.

Thanks for posting the update, KEJ. I think about Keiosha all the time, so I'm happy to see this article. It's long past time for the truth to be revealed.

Where are you, Keiosha?

Authorities release new image of missing Duson teen

In recent years, few details have emerged about Felix’s disappearance.

This week, the Lafayette Parish Sheriff’s Office said Felix may be in the company of an adult man or woman.

“They may still be in the local area or they may travel to Baton Rouge, Louisiana or Houston, Texas,” the sheriff’s office said in a statement.

 

[mpnola]

This case is horrible. They need to release any and all info so people can help. They have given info that her family harmed her, some person in a still shot might know something, she might be with a man or woman. Come on! That's ridiculous. She's certainly one of the forgotten because 4 years later, more people should know and those who do know should be given more info to help. Poor baby.
