A family is looking for answers after a 69-year-old woman, Josefina Montesdeoca, was found dead in a manhole behind their home in Harris County, Texas.
Josefina was reported missing on September 13. Her daughter, Stephanie Lopez, said they searched for her around FM-1960 and Kuykendahl but couldn’t find her. Stephanie shared her mother’s phone location, but it seemed to be off, so they contacted the Harris County Sheriff’s Office to report her missing.
A deputy asked a few questions, gave them a case number, and left. When the family didn’t hear back the next day, they called the missing persons unit, only to find out it was closed on weekends. A search and rescue group wouldn’t help because they needed the sheriff’s approval.
Luckily, friends from church helped search on Sunday and quickly found Josefina. Stephanie recalled the moment, saying, “They found her! I thought she was sitting up, not in that hole.” She believes her mother was praying at the bottom of the manhole, hoping to be found.
The uncovered manhole was on the property of an apartment complex behind their home. There is a lot of overgrown land between the complex and their home. Stephanie’s husband said the man who found her had to move grass to see her body.
They are still unsure why Josefina was in that area, as she usually didn’t go there. Since her death, “do not enter” and “private property” signs have been put up, and the manhole has been covered.
During their search, the family also found an unfinished pool and rescued a stranded dog, naming it Joseph after Josefina, who loved dogs.
ABC13 is trying to find out who is responsible for the manhole’s maintenance. The medical examiner has not yet determined the cause of Josefina’s death, and the family has been told it could take months for answers.
CHER DROPS SHOCKING TRUTH ABOUT HER PREFERENCE FOR YOUNGER MEN – YOU WON’T BELIEVE IT!
If you ever wondered why Cher usually dates younger men, she recently gave a simple reason on The Jennifer Hudson Show.
Cher, who is 77 years old, said she’s shy around men, especially when she’s not working with them. She mentioned turning down Elvis and then said, “And the reason I go out with young men is because men my age are older — well, now they’re all dead — but before, they were always terrified to approach me. And younger men were the only ones that…”
Jennifer Hudson jumped in, saying, “They’re bold.”
Cher agreed, saying, “Yeah, raised by women like me.”
Cher’s reason for dating younger men came up after her relationship with Alexander “AE” Edwards, who is 40 years younger, got a lot of attention from fans and the media.
When asked about Edwards’ intentions, Cher said on X, “Let Me Explain…I DONT GIVE A [flying] FK WHAT ANYONE THINKS.”
It’s 2024, and we shouldn’t have to explain why we choose who we date. As long as it’s not hurting anyone, let people love who they want.
