Melany Funes was 16 when she was last seen by family in Delray Beach, Florida, on the morning of January 23, 2019. That same evening she messaged family on Facebook saying she was in South Carolina with her boyfriend. Reports say neither she nor the boyfriend had access to a phone or a vehicle after that message, and their exact location was never identified.

No further communications have been reported and Melany’s whereabouts remain unknown. There is little public detail about where in South Carolina she might have been or how long she stayed away. If anyone saw Melany around January 23, 2019, or has information about where she might have gone, please come forward.
