87: MISSING/MURDER: Evelyn and Alex Hernandez

from Detective Perspective Hosted by mjkiol

On the afternoon of May 1, 2002, 24-year-old Evelyn Hernandez picked up her five-year-old son, Alex, from school in San Francisco. She was nine months pregnant and just days away from giving birth to a baby boy she planned to name Fernando. That evening, she called her sister to talk about her upcoming baby shower. It was the last time anyone ever heard from her. A week later—on what would have been Evelyn’s due date—she and Alex were reported missing. Nearly three months later, Evelyn’s partial remains were found in the Bay. But Alex and baby Fernando were never found. More than two decades have passed. Evelyn’s murder remains unsolved. Her sons are still missing. And her family is still searching for answers. Evelyn Hernandez was 24 years old and nine months pregnant when she went missing on May 1, 2002. She was last seen at her apartment in San Francisco after spending the day running errands and picking up her five-year-old son, Alex, from school. Evelyn’s partial remains were later found in the Bay, but her unborn son, Fernando, and her son Alex have never been located. When five year old Alex went missing, he was four feet tall and 45 pounds with brown hair and brown eyes. Anyone with information in this case is urged to contact the San Francisco Police Department Cold Case Unit at (415) 553-1450.
