Missing Cuban Woman in Miami: Family Pleads for Help

The family of Yanella Suárez, a 43-year-old Cuban woman living in Miami, has been enduring the distressing uncertainty of her whereabouts for over four months.

Since July 14, 2025, the date of her last communication, she has seemingly vanished without a trace.

This disappearance has prompted a vigorous search effort from her family and the Cuban community in South Florida, who are urgently seeking assistance to locate her.

Unanswered Message: The Last Contact

According to Teresa Pérez, Yanella's mother, the last known trace of her daughter was a morning message sent to her children on July 13, 2025.

The following day, all attempts to reach her were unsuccessful.

That weekend, the family discovered that her cell phone and wallet, which contained personal documents, had been stolen.

Her phone remained off until September 2, when it was briefly turned on. A young man answered a call, claiming a friend had given him the phone, but he quickly hung up and did not answer again.

A Frustrating Lead: Her Wallet's Discovery

On September 4, Yanella's children received a letter stating that her wallet, along with her documents, had been found discarded on the street near her usual work area and delivered to a nearby address.

Though the family went to investigate, they found no further clues about her whereabouts.

Previous Disappearances: A Troubling Pattern

This is not the first time Yanella has gone missing. As reported by journalist Niover Licea, on his channel "Nio Reporting a Crime," Yanella had disappeared a year prior and was found thanks to the case's exposure on social media and within the community.

Her mother fears the worst, given her daughter's mental health issues, which require specialized medical care. Without treatment, the risk of a severe episode is high.

Last Known Location

The family confirmed that the last sighting of Yanella was at the Madre Tereza Shelter, located at 724 NW 17 St, Miami, FL 33136.

They have visited this location multiple times without finding any answers.

Additionally, they mention that she often spent long periods sitting at nearby bus stops, particularly in areas like Allapattah, Jackson Memorial, Overtown, and parts of Downtown Miami.
