Father Indicted in 2016 Kidnapping Case

Gustavo Alfonso Castano Restrepo, 55, has been indicted for kidnapping resulting in the deaths of Liliana Moreno and her 8-year-old daughter, Daniella, who disappeared in Miami-Dade County on May 30, 2016. The indictment alleges that Restrepo kidnapped the pair, but their bodies have never been found, leading to an FBI reward of $25,000 for information regarding their whereabouts. Investigation details indicate that Restrepo used a cellular phone, the internet, and a vehicle in the commission of the crime. Following his arrest, he was ordered detained and faces a potential life sentence or the death penalty if convicted. Family members of the victims expressed their desire for closure and answers about the case, which remains largely mysterious. Federal authorities have not disclosed specific details about the circumstances of the alleged kidnapping or the evidence leading to Restrepo's arrest.
