Authorities are intensifying their search for Jorge ‘Jojo’ Morales, a 6-year-old autistic boy from Miami who has been missing for a month after allegedly being kidnapped by his father and grandmother, Your Content has learned.
Recent developments reveal that a car, believed to be linked to the boy’s disappearance, was discovered all the way in Maine, significantly increasing the scope of the investigation.
The young boy’s mother, Yanet Concepcion, is locked in a custody battle with Morales, and authorities suspect that the abduction was an attempt to keep him away from her. Private investigator Joe Carillo, along with the distressed mother, pleaded for the safe return of Jojo during a recent appeal.
“We urge whoever is responsible for taking my child to bring him back to us,” pleaded Concepcion, expressing her heartache and desperation.
Investigations have led detectives to believe that Jojo’s 45-year-old father, Jorge Morales, had been plotting this abduction for an entire year. Sources suggest that Morales was even exploring ways to live “off the grid,” indicating a premeditated plan.
As the search continues, authorities are leaving no stone unturned to locate the missing boy and reunite him with his mother.
The case has garnered significant attention and concern from the public and law enforcement agencies alike, according to Prime News.
