Summary

It’s the classic stranger danger tale; every parent’s worst nightmare. On September 28, 1996, Jesus De La Cruz was outside playing with a friend when he was approached by a man who offered him a new bicycle. Jesus, who was only six at the time, went with him. He was never seen again. Despite the fact that police in Jesus’s town of Lynn, Massachusetts was able to quickly identify the man with whom Jesus was allegedly last seen, he remains free to this day, and a family and a community is left wondering if little Jesus De La Cruz will ever get justice.
