Elias Monroy is a Hispanic male missing from Los Angeles, CA. He was abducted when he was just two weeks old by an unknown female. On 2/2/1987 Elias was at the LA-USC medical center on Marengo Street for a routine baby checkup visit with his mother Maria. A young woman struck up a conversation with  Maria offering to hold him as his mother struggled to find him formula, but this would all be a ploy for this stranger to vanish with baby Elias. Police would soon discover that two weeks prior to this incident, 70 miles away in Hesperia, CA a mother reported that a woman asked to hold her baby in an attempt to kidnap her child. Are these two cases related? It’s been 36 years and still, we are asking, where is Elias Monroy?
