The Ramos Espinoza family is in agony as they plead for assistance in locating their daughter, Jaqualine Ramos Espinoza. The 14-year-old girl was last seen in her bedroom in Paramount and has been missing since Saturday, May 6, 2023. Her family noticed her absence at 8:00 a.m. on the same day and immediately reported it to the authorities.
According to the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department, there is no indication of foul play in Jaqualine’s disappearance, and all indications point to her leaving voluntarily. A Ring camera at a neighbor’s home captured footage of the teenager walking in the area at 3:30 a.m. on the same day she went missing. She was wearing black-and-white pajama pants, a gray hooded sweatshirt, and black-and-white Converse shoes.
Jaqualine is described as a 5-foot, 3-inch tall Latino girl with brown hair, brown eyes, and braces. She weighs approximately 80 pounds and has no prior history of running away. Due to her age, the authorities consider her an at-risk missing person.
Her parents are heartbroken and made a heartfelt plea for anyone with information on their daughter’s whereabouts to come forward. They described Jaqualine as a quiet and kind-hearted person and begged the public to help them find their beloved daughter.
The Lakewood Sheriff’s Station is asking for the public’s assistance in locating Jaqualine. Anyone with information about her whereabouts is urged to contact the station at 562-623-3500 or Crime Stoppers at 800-222-TIPS (8477). You can also submit anonymous tips through the “P3 Tips” mobile app or visit the website http://lacrimestoppers.org.
The Ramos Espinoza family is hopeful that with the public’s help, they will soon be reunited with their daughter, Jaqualine.
