Missing Rondreiz Cortez “Junior” Phillips Timeline of Events
Created by Bella's voice on 4/14/18
* 4/5/18: Junior went missing. He was last seen playing in the yard wearing a white tee shirt, jeans, and yellow rain boots. According to Claiborne Parish Sheriff Ken Bailey, Rondreiz wandered off outside while his stepfather was possibly working on a vehicle at the time around 11:30 a.m. His mother was inside the family's mobile home and reported him missing an hour later. She told authorities that she set up boundaries for him so he wouldn't wander into the woods.
The family had only been living at the home located off Louisiana Highway 152 for a few months.
Authorities have since questioned a number of people, including his mother and stepfather, and have searched woods and ponds near the residence.
Louisiana State Police issued a Level II Endangered/Missing Child Media Advisory on behalf of the Claiborne Parish Sheriff’s Office for the child reported missing Thursday, April 5, 2018.
* 4/8/18: The Claiborne Parish Sheriff's Office called off the public search for 4-year-old Rondreiz Cortez “Junior” Phillips, but said they will focus "on areas of interest that have been located during the search".
Sunday afternoon, Sheriff Ken Bailey said divers searched two ponds near the boy's home but found no sign of the child. Sheriff Bailey said they're not sure what happened to "Junior" and are doing everything they can to find him.
4/9/18: The step father Nicholas Gilbert said the family is hurting, especially after hearing rumors he could have something to do with Junior's disappearance. Gilbert said he volunteered to take a lie detectors test and passed.
* 4/12/18: Over a hundred community members gathered in prayer on thursday for a prayer vigil. They lit candles and bowed their heads to bring hope to the family who's been waiting for their little boy to come home.
"I just want to thank everyone for being here," said a tearful Shiela Phillips, mother of the missing boy.
* Also on 4/12/18: The FBI is offering a $5,000 reward for information leading to location of 4-year-old missing from Claiborne Parish.
* Investigation is still ongoing *
