[FONT=&quot]Circumstances of Disappearance
Sparpana was last seen inside her family's residence in the 1900 block of Manzanita Way in West Sacramento, California on November 2, 1985. Her mother, Cynthia Sparpana, was found deceased inside the residence on November 5; she was a victim of homicide. None of Danyel's belongings were missing from their home.
Lionel Ernest Tholmer Jr. was named as the prime suspect in the Sparpanas' cases shortly afterward. Tholmer resided in Georgia, but returned to the Sacramento area to work at McClellan Air Force Base in the mid-1980s. He was convicted of Cynthia and Danyel's murders in November 1992. Danyel's remains have never been located.

Guide us to you little one. Such a heartbreaking case, such a precious child
 
I have the impression that this baby died that same day, since sightings are always unconfirmed, it could have been any similar child... As for the guy who supposedly murdered Cynthia, he is already in prison and we hope he never comes out again, even if he hasn't been convicted of this murder at least something is already paying ..
rest in peace
