There are way too many children going missing in nyc. I’m afraid something sinister is happening
A boy was missing from the same block, recently. What’s going on here? Get back Leisa, safe and sound 🙏

How was she missing since March 19th? I don’t understand how parents don’t track their kids. Gotta have their location on and stalk them. And two kids from the same block? Someone is out there watching them
@Dread184 Same building. I don’t believe in coincidences.
Praying she is returned home safely 🙏🏾❣️
