If you thought your college application process was tedious, you ain’t heard nothin’ yet.
A child who was reported missing 13 years ago in Alabama was found in Cleveland this week. When Julian Hernandez, 18, started applying to colleges, he learned that the Social Security number his father gave him did not match his name.
With help from his school counselor, Hernandez found himself on the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children database. The FBI was informed October 30, and authorities confirmed the teen’s real identity.
It turns out that Julian Hernandez had been spending the past 13 years living in Cleveland with his father, Bobby Hernandez under false identities. Bobby Hernandez, 53, has been arrested and charged with tampering with records. The father, who was supposed to drop Julian off at school the day he went missing, was a main suspect in the crime.
