In early 2025, a Florida couple, Leon Alejandro Jr. and Samantha Feliz, became the focus of a police investigation following the disappearance of their infant. The couple allegedly concealed the birth of their child, which occurred between December 6, 2024, and January 5, 2025, outside of a hospital. Family members reported seeing the baby during the first month of life, but after that, the child was never seen again. Investigators believe the infant, identified only by the initials A.F., was last photographed on January 5, 2025, appearing visibly ill and malnourished. The investigation revealed that the couple repeatedly denied the child's existence, claiming it was a prank or a hoax intended to defraud family members. Despite extensive searches using cadaver dogs, authorities were unable to locate the child's remains. The couple fled Florida and was eventually arrested in Rockingham, North Carolina, on July 22, 2026, by the Richmond County Sheriff’s Office and the US Marshals Service. They are currently being held without bond pending extradition to Florida. The investigation has raised numerous questions about the circumstances surrounding the child's disappearance and the couple's actions leading up to their arrest. Authorities have not disclosed further details about what they believe happened to the infant, but the case highlights the complexities of child welfare and the legal implications of such serious allegations.
