Dakota Crouch, a father from South Padre Island, has been searching for his 3-year-old daughter, Rilee June Crouch, since July 2024. After returning Rilee to his mother on July 2, Crouch found both his daughter and her mother, Lillian Maria Crouch, missing two days later. Despite Crouch’s efforts, including concerns about police inaction, he has had difficulty locating them. Lillian, who has dual citizenship, may have taken Rilee to Mexico. Crouch has been frustrated with the police response, feeling they have not taken sufficient action, such as contacting Lillian’s family or issuing an Amber Alert, due to the case being classified as a civil issue. A missing person’s bulletin has been issued for Rilee, and a warrant has been issued for Lillian. Crouch hopes to reunite with his daughter before her fourth birthday on September 28.
