The UTRERA Children (1995) - San Bernardino CA/Found in FL

A father is behind bars, arrested for
allegedly kidnapped his own children from California 14 years ago, and
bringing them to Central Florida to live.
For years, investigators have been searching
for him, but it was the social networking website Facebook that
delivered the break it took more than a decade to get.
Faustino Utrera is now charged with two
counts of kidnapping, and two counts of violating child custody orders.
According to the Osceola County Sheriff's
Office, Utrera was at a bus stop on Wednesday at about 2:30 in the
afternoon, waiting to pick up his 16-year-old son from school, when he
was taken into custody.
Faustino's 16-year-old son and 17-year-old
daughter had been attending Celebration High school. Investigators said
the family of three had actually been living in the Palm Key Mobile home
park in Polk County.
Investigators said that in 1995, Utrera took
his two kids from the family's San Bernardino, California home and disappeared.
Then just last March, investigators said the
mother of the children was on Facebook and found her daughter. When she
began conversing online, with her very own daughter, who hadn't seen her
since she was 3 years old, told her mom she wanted nothing to do with
her and deleted her from her Facebook page.
San Bernardino authorities issued an
out-of-state arrest warrant, and this past Wednesday, Osceola County
deputies caught up with Utrera.
The daughter is about to turn 18, and she officially
graduated from celebration high school on Thursday night. For now, both
children are in the custody of the State of Florida.
