The NamUs pages for Fredy Xi Ical and Wendy Cucul Caal have both been taken down, so they've presumably been located.
The only thing I can think of is that the family members they're running away to be with are undocumented immigrants who are afraid to come forward. But there's just too many missing kids for that to be the case for every single one of them.For a town that has a population of 21,166 in 2023, that is A LOT of missing kids!
You would think if they went from one family member's house to another someone would know where they are. The fact that no one is saying I find worrisome. JMO
Sounds like LE is frustrated, lack of cooperation from immigration and sponsors, leave little to no leads.I found this article from April 2022, and it states that 'about 10' Central Ammerican immigrant kids had gone missing and they were all believed to be runaways. It also gives some info on the sponsorships; typically the sponsors are family members or community members. The only child the article names or provides any details about is Fredy Xi Ical (called 'Fredy Gustavo' in the article), who I assume has been located since his NamUs has been taken down. Apparently Fredy's mother didn't think he was truly missing and believed he ran away to go work in another state... Keep in mind he was 13. Hopefully he was found safe and is doing well, and isn't involved in some sort of child labor situation.
The only other article I've been able to find is subscription locked. It seems to be about Ofelia Gomez Perez. Culpeper PD seeking runaway teen last seen in town Nov. 13![]()
Culpeper’s missing kids: About 10 kids have runaway from local placements after arriving from the Southern Border
Typically, when a child is reported missing, the community turns out in droves to help find them. Search parties, tracker dogs and helicopters set off to find the often scaredwww.insidenova.com
Is there a seasonal migrant population that works through Culpeper?
From the above linkAnother missing girl, 15-year-old Yeni Caal Coc. Not much info on her, she went missing April 15 but wasn't added to NamUs until May.The National Missing and Unidentified Persons System (NamUs)
By bringing people, information, forensic science and technology together, NamUs helps resolve cases.www.namus.gov
Here’s the problem with that theory, Culpeper is a rural town. 22 hispanic woman are currently missing in the ENTIRE state of VA. 1/3 of those are from Culpeper which can’t be the only town where immigrants and sponsors are located. These numbers don’t number well.Sounds like LE is frustrated, lack of cooperation from immigration and sponsors, leave little to no leads.
Moo...the children may have joined gangs, working in agriculture, obtained fake IDs, and/or involved in trafficking.
I wonder if immigration keeps up with the children, if not WHY?
Moo
Sad we can't come together to find these children.
I just stumbled upon this subject on another site and did some research. Culpeper is a stop on the horse show circuit on the east coast. Most horse trainers hire central and South American men, mostly undocumented to work as grooms (take care of the horses). Teenagers will often say that they are older than they really are with the youngest age they say they are being around 16. Job includes cash and housing. When the horse show rolls into a town, it's not uncommon for the Latinos to find the local Hispanic restaurants, bars, and markets. There is a high turnover rate with help so quite often one of these guys will try to recruit a fellow Latino to come work and is willing to teach them how to do it. A lot of times they will charge the person for getting them the job. When the show is over, they pack up and go with the horses to the next show. On the list, 7 of the missing happen to disappear while the show was there. The circuit moves to FL in the winters with most people from the northeast heading down in December. As far as the females go, a lot of these workers that are really adults and some well into adulthood, seem to prefer the teenagers. They will sometimes lure the girl to leave town with them only to be fired days later when their employer finds out or to be given the choice to lose the girl or the job when they have extra bodies to house. They are left in whatever town the show is in. I would be curious if any of these missing were related or close to each other.Is there a seasonal migrant population that works through Culpeper?
That makes sense. Sadly these workers are so replaceable.I just stumbled upon this subject on another site and did some research. Culpeper is a stop on the horse show circuit on the east coast.

On a side note, nobody on the list was from 2020, Covid lockdowns
