Authorities have a possible suspect in custody in the disappearance of a 5-year-old girl, the FBI and Rio Arriba County Sheriff’s Office announced during a joint news conference Monday afternoon.

The name of the possible suspect was not released, although authorities did say he is being held on outstanding warrants out of Bernalillo County.

Renezmae was reported missing by her mother at about 6 p.m. on Sunday, authorities said. The Amber Alert hit nearly four hours later at around 10:45 p.m. Anyone with information that may help investigators is asked to call 505-753-5555.
Meanwhile a massive search is underway for Renezmae Calzada, who was last seen playing outside her Española home near McCurdy Road and Fairview Lane at around 9:30 a.m. Sunday.

FBI Special Agent in Charge James Langenberg said in any community, there is no crisis more urgent than that of a missing child. He said the FBI got involved in the investigation within minutes of the Amber Alert going out and that he immediately dispatched scores of agents and staff to Espanola to team up with other law enforcement partners.

“Right now we have a community canvas going on, knocking on every single door in Renezmae’s neighborhood asking for any information, what they saw what they heard in the last 24 hours that might provide us with clues as to her location,” Langenberg said.

He said the FBI has brought in its evidence response team, subject experts from the behavioral analysis unit as well as experts in social media exploitation such as cell phones, videos and computers. Asked anyone with any information no matter how small to come forward.

“The FBI is committed to staying here as long as it takes to find Renezmae. We will follow every single lead. We will leave no stone unturned in order to bring her back home. So whether you’re a relative or a family member or someone in the community, if you have any information that you would like to share with us, we would greatly appreciate it,” he said.

In response to questions. Langenburg said it’s not unusual for the FBI to get involved in an Amber Alert situation and that the FBI reached out to the RASO Sunday night to see if they needed assistance.

“It’s what we do in law enforcement. We work together as a team. Since we got on the ground with everyone, we’ve been working as a seamless team the entire day,” he said.

Sheriff Lujan said there are also a lot of the general public who are not law enforcement officers that are coming forward to help RASO. He noted that businesses in Espanola are providing services for law enforcement personnel.

Anyone in the area of McCurdy Road and Tesuque Lane who has any video surveillance in their residences is asked to review it to see if there might be anything helpful on there.

“Anytime a five year old is missing we’re going to assume she is in danger. If she’s not with the family she’s endangered. So she’s missing and endangered” Sheriff Lujan said.

My thoughts/questions:
So grandma and mom were the ones who sounded the alarms and brought this to the police? Said she was last seen at 9:30 am, was that mother dropping her off? Or grandma seeing her before she left for work? Or is it dad seeing her last at 9:30? Or a neighbor??
I’m wondering how this man arrested is connected.. is it the father himself? Is it a friend of his, or possibly a neighbor?
So sad the amber alert didn’t go out til 13 hours later... no one to blame but dad on that one..
Sitting upon my hands

There’s a search party for 5-year-old Renezmae Calzada in Española right now— which includes her mom and immediate family. Family told me they are not talking to media right now.
