Found Alive TX - Rudolph 'Rudy' Farias, 17, Houston, 6 March 2015 *found beaten and unresponsive in 2023*

[Ontario Mom]

I suspect we're going to learn some really, really awful news about where Rudy has really been the last 8 years and how he ended up beaten and on the steps of the church.

Curious, I looked it up and found this https://www.findlaw.com/state/texas-law/texas-criminal-statute-of-limitations-laws.html

Interesting which crimes in the state of Texas fall into the 7 year category:

• Misapplication of fiduciary property or property of a financial institution: 7 years.
• Execution of document by deception: 7 years.
• Money laundering: 7 years.
• Certain tax crimes: 7 years.
• Fraud: 7 years.
• Identity theft: 7 years.
• Credit card or debit card abuse: 7 years.
• Exploitation of a child or elderly person: 7 years.
• Bigamy: 7 years.

Interesting

Oh man, need an MSM link asap!!!

Please don’t be too hard on me for bringing up this possibility, but is it possible that Rudy has been in on the hoax with his mom this whole time? If it is a hoax

That's what I'm wondering. Of course, a big "IF" goes along with everything at this point.

IMO, subject to change as we learn more

I hate to even think this but, was it "time for him to be found" for whatever reason so, he was beaten and left in front of the church for a newsworthy homecoming story?

Do we actually know his physical state? Who is providing that info? Serious question, not snark.

 

[Inthedetails]

I wonder if LE checked to see if his RX for an inhaler was being filled, and who was collecting it.

Super good question!

I still stand by dog theory being unlikely. If he was walking the dogs, they most likely had a collar and a leash. I have a hard time believing two dogs with a collar and potentially a leash attached to them would be wandering the streets and nobody would have picked them up (especially the dog that was wandering around for an extra day) or notified the neighborhood of seeing a loose dog. Or perhaps the collar had the phone number to call if lost as many collars do yet again, nobody picked up the dog and checked.

The dogs then find their way home. The second one wanders for an extra day but finds his way back. How many dogs get lost everyday and aren't able to find their way home? But in this case, they dogs split up instead of staying together, and find their way back home separately. We see so many posts on FB, Nextdoor, flyers looking for a lost pup. I would like to see the distance between his house and his place of disappearance.

Maybe the dogs never left home. We don't really, truly know....but it's a story that really catches people attention, to think of the two dogs coming home without their teenage owner. imo

Wow. I am so sorry for the abuse---psychological, physical and sexual--- that he has experienced. I hope there is someone who is decent in his family who can help him and guide him back into health.

The details are linked below. Thank goodness for Quanell X. Healing to Rudy! I hope she is arrested soon although it is questionable since he is not a minor. He will probably have a choice to make in all of this and we know he is reticent to have her arrested. Yet, it seems like false reports may be a way to go. Ughh, the details are making me sick.

Mother kept Rudy Farias as sex slave for 8 years, counselor says

Rudy Farias's mother sexually abused him, made him 'play daddy,' treated him like a slave, and made him take drugs during the eight years she claimed her son was missing, it is claimed.

I’m just going off what his mother said, that his skin tone was much darker he was hardly recognizable. Along with the weight loss of course.

If he was living on the streets for some time I would think the sun as well as the lack of washing facitilies would make his skin appear darker than when he was at home with his mother.
ETA: I have now caught up on the thread. I see since Iposted the above comment that new and shocking information has been released. Was this whole thing a scam? Need for attention? Donations? Munchausen's? My mind is blown!

I hope so too. It's hard to know who his family is when it's been highly probable she made up so many accounts. Existing family either cut her off a long time ago hence why they never knew Rudy was still at home despite him being free to go to the neighbors, or they're major enablers.

EIGHT years of this ?!

No words

<modsnip: quoted post was removed> Here it is. I'm assuming his mom is arrested

I did not listen to the FB live, but is it not unusual, potentially detrimental to a case, that this info is being released by Quanell X and not the police or DA? Everything about this is weird.

edited for extra word and a typo

To clear up the timeline a bit:
Rudy IV disappeared March 6, 2015
his dad, Rudy III, committed suicide August 19, 2014
the brother Charles died Feb 13, 2011

The obituary for the dad only mentions "survived by" people, not the usual "preceded in death by" list, and that is why we don't see Charles mentioned in the obit--he was already dead when his father died by suicide.

Janie Santana is Rudy and Charles' mom.

Perhaps they (the sons) had different fathers.

<modsnip: quoted post was removed> If this is true, it is horrific, but makes me ask why did he agree to go with his mom when found at the church? LE and EMS were there, apparently, but he, apparently, agreed to go home with Mom.

I'm crying.

I hope he knows we all hold him up.

These secrets/revelations do not diminish him.

They diminish her.

He is also terrified of his mother getting into trouble. This shows to me a severe form of trauma bonding. She has done massive psychological damage.

ETA: You see this in cases too with abduction. Sometimes the abductor eventual gives the victim some form of freedom when they see the victim has bonded with them and accepted circumstances.

 

[KooshBall]

The PI that the mom hired to find "missing" Rudy is another rabbit hole to go down. I don't trust anything she has to say either.

 

[LaineyJ]

I still think there’s a lot of terrible details we don’t know. Not that I think we should, just saying I believe the evil goes even further (if that’s possible)

From what I'm gathering is he was trying to protect her. Even after everything she did. She is his mom. He's unwell and with help, will realise she is not worth protecting. Someone who loves you doesnt do this to you.
