Monique “Mo” Figueroa [contributed]<\/figcaption><\/figure>LITTLEROCK \u2013More than two months have passed since 28-year-old Monique \u201cMo\u201d Figueroa<\/strong> vanished without a trace, and loved ones are hoping to bring renewed attention to the Littlerock mother\u2019s disappearance.<\/p>\n

Family members are inviting the entire community to a prayer vigil this Sunday, July 26, at 7 p.m.<\/a>, at the Littlerock Community Church<\/strong>, located at 7854 Pearblossom Highway.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe need to let the sheriff\u2019s department know that Monique matters. She is someone\u2019s mom, daughter, sister and cousin\u2026 we need the public’s help to show up and pray,\u201d stated close family friend Stacy Stilwell.<\/p>\n

\"Monique\u2019s<\/a>
Monique\u2019s father, Jeff Figueroa, believes his daughter may have been abducted.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Monique has been missing since May 19 at approximately 4 a.m., when she was last seen driving from her residence in the 7200 block of East Avenue U-12 in Littlerock.<\/p>\n

Her abandoned 2004 Mercedes Benz was found May 30 off a road in Juniper Hills, which prompted authorities to release a \u201cMissing Person\u201d Special Bulletin. (Read it here<\/a>.)<\/p>\n

Monique\u2019s vehicle is not burgundy, as stated in the LASD bulletin; it is black with black rims, family members said. Monique\u2019s father, Jeff Figueroa, believes his daughter may have been abducted.<\/p>\n

\u201cSomebody ran her car off the road before it was dumped in a field,\u201d Jeff Figueroa said last month. He said he was told there was \u201cevidence of a struggle on the car.\u201d<\/p>\n

Family members and loved ones have grown frustrated with the investigation, believing that the case is being neglected by law enforcement.<\/p>\n

Monique’s family has launched a fundraising campaign to pay for missing person flyers, media advertisement and a private investigator in hopes of getting answers.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe family needs closure,\u201d Stilwell said, adding that Monique missed her daughter\u2019s third birthday on July 3. \u201cSomeone knows something\u2026 please come forward! They can remain anonymous.\u201d<\/p>\n

Family members will update the community on all new developments concerning Monique Figueroa at the prayer vigil Sunday.<\/p>\n

They\u2019re hoping that those unable to attend the vigil can contribute to the cost of bringing attention to Monique\u2019s disappearance. To contribute to this effort, visit http:\/\/www.gofundme.com\/FindingMo<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Anyone with information on this case is asked to contact Detective Shonka or Detective Holston of the Sheriff\u2019s Department\u2019s Homicide Bureau at 323-890-5500.<\/p>\n
