I had an Executed Today entry posted yesterday: Richard Hale, who murdered his seven-year-old daughter in the West Midlands in England in 1864. His common-law wife and partner-in-crime, Cecilia Baker, got a life sentence because she was pregnant.

MP of the week: Hector Lopez-Ruiz
This week’s featured missing person is Hector Javier Lopez-Ruiz, a twenty-year-old who disappeared on October 15, 1997. He’s missing from Vista, California, a mid-sized city of just under 100,000 people in the San Diego metro area. Besides the date and place he went missing, and his basic physical description, I have absolutely no information on this young man or his disappearance.
If he’s still alive, Hector would be 40 this coming spring. I’d love it if anyone who knew him, or knows any details about his disappearance, would comment on this blog entry or email me. I’d love to be able to update his casefile — it hasn’t been updated even once in my 12 1/2 years of running the Charley Project.
(I know this is a day late. I’m sorry. I’ve kind of sucked lately at updating the database and the blog. Partly cause of the holidays and partly because my neurotransmitters still aren’t firing entirely correctly.)
