Joaquina Aguilar was 13 when she was last seen in Gardena, California, on December 14, 2001. She was 4 feet 9 inches tall, about 114 pounds, with brown hair and brown eyes. Authorities classify her case as endangered.

Officials say Joaquina and her mother, Lucinda Aguilar, both disappeared on the same day and there have been no confirmed sightings of either since. The circumstances point to a possible familial abduction, and the Gardena Police Department is the primary agency handling the investigation. No substantial leads have been reported.

If anyone has information about Joaquina or Lucinda Aguilar’s whereabouts, please contact the Gardena Police Department.
