Catherine Strauch
Caucasian Female, 7 MOA
Disappeared 6 MAR 2019.
The child was sleeping in a child carrier on a bed in a third-floor, one bedroom apartment in the Windsor Terrace neighborhood of Brooklyn, while the mother (Emily Strauch, Caucasian Female, 22 YOA) folded clothing in the living room, within sight of the bed. The window opened on to a fire escape. Raccoon foot-prints in excrement were found on the fire escape.
Suddenly, the bedroom door slammed shut, and before she could reach it, the mother heard the lock turn. The mother broke the door down (evidence supports this); inside, the carrier was found empty and overturned on the floor. Three old, split bones with the marrow scraped out were found on the bed. These were later identified as human remains (though authorities believe they could not be from the kidnapped child due to their age). The only suspect is the estranged mother-in-law (Janice Strauch, Caucasian Female, 61 YOA) with psychiatric problems who saw the baby only once. Husband is serving active duty in Iraq and has yet to return.
Janice Strauch is still under indefinite voluntary commitment to the Manhattan Psychiatric Center. Mother and father are not considered suspects. Due to the presence of bones, this case is still in active investigation.
Franklin Elders
African American Male, 11 MOA
Disappeared 5 APR 2019
The child was with his father (Devon Elders, African American Male, 29 YOA) at the Atlantic Avenue street market in the Boerum Hill neighborhood at 4:39 PM on 5 APR 2019 when he vanished. The father, in front of witnesses, was sitting and eating pizza, and allowing the child to walk back and forth to a nearby food tent (unoccupied), when the child went behind the tent, laughing.
The child was never seen again.
Suspicion fell on the father first, but dozens of witnesses came forward in his defense, and two cameras at the scene corroborates the story. Neither camera captured what happened to the child after he went behind the tent.
Despite extensive searches, a public outreach campaign, and multiple news stories, the child was not found. On 10 MAY remnants of the child’s clothing were found at the mouth of a drainage pipe near the piers in Brooklyn Heights about a kilometer away. The clothing had rips and tears on it consistent with animal bites and scratches, though no blood was present.
Current theory is the child fell down a sewer catch basin opening while out of sight and was drowned, but since no body was recovered, the case is still in active investigation.
Sandra Cohen
Caucasian Female, 2 YOA
Disappeared 4 MAY 2019
Sandra Cohen was playing in a closed-off backyard in Carroll Gardens, Brooklyn under the supervision of her mother (Elizabeth Cohen, Caucasian Female, 25 YOA) from a back, kitchen window. The mother was washing dishes.
Sandra played for some time in the small, fenced-in yard which was somewhat unkempt. At 2:29 PM Elizabeth Cohen called the police claiming her daughter had gone missing from the yard, and that she didn’t know how. She was frantic, and was held (but not charged) for striking a police officer. The report indicates Elizabeth became distraught and violent at some point that evening.
A police search of the yard uncovered a sunken standpipe in the high grass near the back of the yard, and fresh metal scrapes indicating the cover (weighing 75 lbs.) had been moved and then slid back into place. A search of the sewer access revealed nothing except nine small, 22" sewer leads which police could not access. A body was never located, but Emil Cohen (Caucasian Male, 27 YOA), the child’s father, who is also a wanted felon, is considered a suspect in the child’s abduction.
