Re-Release: CJ and Billy Vosseler

We’ve all heard of people who have used children as pawns in a divorce. Maybe they’re fighting on visitation or child support payments because they don’t want to give their soon-to-be ex what they want. But in some extreme cases, the animosity and need for control can be destructive. Charles Vosseler needed to be in charge. He needed to decide where his two sons, 3-year-old CJ, and 2-year-old Billy, were at all times. So when it was clear that his marriage to his wife, Ruth, wasn’t working out, Charles hatched a plan.

On October 9, 1986, this plan culminated in him kidnapping his children and keeping them hidden for decades. Over the past 30-plus years, Ruth has never given up on her children. Today, she is still out there fighting to keep their names and their faces in the public consciousness, in hopes of finally bringing them home.

There is a $25,000 reward offered to anyone who can provide information leading to the location of Charles Vosseler, CJ, or Billy. If you have any information, please contact your local FBI Field Office, your local American Embassy or Consulate, or the Rochester Police at 603-335-7529.

Se ofrece una recompensa de $ 25,000 a cualquiera que pueda proporcionar información que conduzca a la ubicación de Charles Vosseler, CJ o Billy. Si tiene alguna información, comuníquese con la oficina local del FBI, la embajada o el consulado estadounidense local o la policía de Rochester al 603-335-7529.
