He lived in Boynton, that's a town south of Lake Worth.

Thank you. I verified you're correct

I feel I should apologize for something I posted several times here and in threads involving Tammy Belanger. I read in a source or two, both newspaper websites, years ago that Victor Wonyetye had confessed to eight to twelve inmates, I believe in New Hampshire, that he had raped, strangled and murdered two 8-year-old girls. I had shared this numerous times because I felt it was some pretty solid evidence against Wonyetye, and since it came from newspapers, the sources seemed credible enough, and I felt it was something people needed to know who may not be aware of it already. However, I have since read elsewhere, and I cannot remember where I read it, that the inmates later admitted that they made it up, possibly for attention. I now take the testimony of the inmates with a grain of salt, and I want to apologize for sharing it as I did before in light of the inmates making it up.

Not only that, but Wilder died in April 1984 in New Hampshire, more than a month before Christy went missing. So he can be ruled out here obviously.

Detectives with the Palm Beach County Sheriff’s Office Cold Case Unit have identified a new person of interest in the decades-old disappearance of Christy Luna, a case that has remained unresolved for more than four decades.

Authorities announced that investigators will provide an update during a media briefing scheduled for Wednesday, March 11, 2026, at 1:00 p.m. at the sheriff’s office headquarters pressroom located at 3228 Gun Club Road in West Palm Beach.

Last week, almost 42 years after Christy disappeared, Palm Beach County Sheriff’s detectives announced Williams as a new person of interest in the cold case, though they have not confirmed his involvement and are looking for more information.

For decades, detectives — including former Palm Beach County Sheriff’s Det. Bill Springer, one of original detectives assigned to the case — have combed through numerous leads, some of which appeared promising, and which they hoped would offer the breakthrough they needed. They investigated several different possible suspects in the area with histories of child sexual abuse, one of whom was connected to the murder of a different 8-year-old girl in New Hampshire. And they dug up nearby fields and backyards of people’s homes, searching for bones. But their efforts did not lead them to Christy, nor to identifying whoever took her that day in May.

Most recently, an anonymous tip came in from a Lake Worth Beach resident that identified Williams as a possible suspect. Williams died in 2016 in an Alabama prison, serving a sentence for sexually abusing a child, deputies say. But when Christy disappeared, he was a 46-year-old resident of Lake Worth at the time, working on remodeling a home in the same area of Belk’s General Store, according to PBSO Sgt. Chris Karpinski.

Yesterday, the official Geraldo Rivera YouTube channel uploaded footage from the January 19th, 1993 episode of The Geraldo Rivera Show. The show was about missing children and had a panel of parents on the stage. One of those parents was Jennie Luna.

In recognition of Sexual Assault Awareness Month, we are sharing the story of Marjorie “Christy” Luna to honor her life and amplify the voices of survivors.

From the outside, Greenacres seemed like a picture-perfect place to grow up — where kids roamed barefoot between the park, school, and corner store. But beneath that storybook setting, something darker was unfolding, and it came to a head one May evening in 1984 when Christy disappeared.

More than 40 years later, her friends are revisiting their childhood memories, uncovering how abuse and violence can exist in plain sight — often hidden or left unspoken.

By sharing Christy’s story during Sexual Assault Awareness Month, we hope to raise awareness, support survivors, and remind others that their voices matter.
