Family concerned about Wichita boy's welfare before he went missing

WICHITA, Kan. (KAKE) -
As the search continues for 5-year-old Lucas Hernandez, the boy's family returned to their home late Monday along with the FBI. Relatives watching from afar say it's not the first time an investigator was called there.

Wichita police say the boy's stepmother last saw Lucas at around 3 p.m. Saturday. She then took a shower and fell asleep, and officers were notified around 6:15 p.m. that the boy was missing.

Sally Rasmussen is Lucas' great aunt, who spoke with KAKE News from her home in New Mexico. She says was sent a photo of Lucas last year and saw multiple bruises on his face and neck. She called police.

"All these stories I'd been hearing for months about him possibly being abused," she said.

(Hi guys, this is o/t and I hopefully the mods won’t mind me for posting this request here as I am appealing specifically to participants from Lucas’ threads, if so mods, please delete and my sincere apologies. My intention is not to detract from Lucas, rather to keep the ball rolling.

There were many here who assisted in helping to identify potential search locations remotely and digitally via google maps, etc. I need help in a case on ground and since I saw some talented individuals here in Lucas’ threads help isolate locations so well (as I mentioned, in a (collective) caliber I had not yet seen here), and since Lucas has been found, I thought maybe some of you miiight want to help apply your experience in talents in another case. If so, please contact me via pm and I will give you the case thread info and data points. I want to go take a trip and have a look around myself (I thinkkkk...either that or send ideas to the current volunteer searchers). It’s killing me seeing this brother on msm digging around ditches looking for his sister.. I believe we can continue to use what we learned here in a constructive manner.)

I hope you get some takers. The work done for Lucas was just astounding. Do you mind posting the name so we can follow along on the forum? Or is that against the rules?

Send info to me also

Me too please

I am also interested in the name so that I might read up.

Hi everyone, and thank you so much for your interest and responses, thank you to the mods for letting this o/t fly. Thank you Little Lucas, you will never be forgotten.

Here is the thread, Rita Gutierrez-Garcia, missing mother of three, most likely victim of violent sexual predator imo, currently in custody on unrelated rape and strangulation charges. If no evidence is gathered I fear he will be back out on the streets at some time in the future.

I guess the end of an active case is always sad. People moving on posts slowing way down. Familiar names already gone.

Such a sad sad situation this became as the result of a mishandled child abuse case. Lucas never had a shot from the day he was born.

Gosh @Charliegizmo49 I sure do feel that way as well. Couldn’t have said it better.

People share so much of themselves here in trying to figure out the pieces of a case. It’s humbling to follow along and though I rarely have anything productive to add to the process, I am so moved by the efforts Websleuthsers go to for the victims. I wish there was more post case discussion. I sometimes feel that (a very small) part of the reason nothing ever seems to get better after cases like Lucas’ is that in our zeal not to hurt the family and other case players, not to have our conversation devolve into something resembling blame towards anyone other than the perpetrators, we fail to fully understand all we could from a case and it’s aftermath. We fail the next generation of kid victims because we don’t look deeply enough into how the situation got to where it was. Probably not the thing for WS though. Just random thoughts as I page through cases tonight looking for the next one I will follow.
 
Ok what productive things have we learned from Lucas’ death that can help save the next one. That is where we are at now, moo.

Kansas has been under the microscope now as a result of Ethan and Lucas. What is going on in our own states?

What is the status of Sherin’s Law?

What about Lucas’ Law? What IS Lucas’ Law?!

What are the solutions here. We can about the problems all we want.

Lucas’ abuse and death leads to something good and helpful for the other mistreated little ones out there....what is it?

Look at the good that Amber Alerts have produced . And the emergence of TES, both through tragedy.

What torch has Lucas lit? With all the love and great minds here, what is the next step?

How about if you can’t have custody of your own kids you shouldn’t be able to be a guardian or caregiver of stepchildren? Thinking out loud. How the hell did that fall under the radar anyway? What is the protocol/system of crosschecking in such things?

Eta: how about people with known heavy drug usage have to undergo a mandatory visit from CPS etc to make sure the kids at home are safe...just thinking.

“7 Reports”. That’s BS.

Poor Lucas didn’t stand a chance. Your parents are *supposed* to love and protect you. Neither did that for Lucas.

“We” didn’t fail Lucas, and “we” aren’t going to fail future generations. Abusive, neglectful, absentee parents will though.

I’m beating a dead horse, but children don’t ask to be born. Be responsible and don’t procreate if you cannot provide a safe and loving life for your child.
