John Colonna "Gianot" Aponte was a young boy who disappeared alongside his sister, Giannina. Their mother declared both children legally dead in 2012.
Case[]
On the day of their disappearances, Giannina and John were supposed to meet up with a family friend and go to the beach with him and his children. However, both children apparently never arrived.
Eights months after their disappearances, a man named Thomas Rodriguez died by suicide in Florida and left a note explaining that he played a role in the kidnapping of both children for $72,000 ransom. Authorities believe this to be a likely possibility, though no arrests have ever been made in the case.
