1996 - Lynn, Massachusetts. On the evening of September 28th, 1996, a man with a dog approached 6-year-old Jesus de la Cruz with the enticing offer of a shiny bike for him to play with. Jesus' bike had been broken, so he followed the man up the street and toward a park, excited about his new toy. He was never seen again. The man was later identified as Robert Levesque, but he claimed to have no knowledge about Jesus. On paper, he looks like the perfect suspect. But as the investigative layers begin to peel back and additional suspects emerge, detectives are left baffled with more questions than answers in a desperate race against time. The disappearance of Jesus de la Cruz remains one of New England's most haunting mysteries. It’s also every parent's worst nightmare: a total stranger abducting your child in broad daylight. If you have any information about the kidnapping of Jesus, I urge you to call the Lynn Police Dept at 781-595-2000.
