The young woman visited her mother and stepmother on November 23, but acted strangely, both women said: she
appeared barefoot, covered in sand and told them she was going on a trip
, although she did not clarify her destination.
His family believes that he was
under the influence of some substance
.
"She didn't look like herself, she didn't act like herself," her stepmother told Telemundo Miami.
"She was normally very groomed. She came to my house covered in sand, jumped on my bed and
looked like she hadn't had a shower or eaten in a couple of days,
" she revealed.

"I don't really know how to feel, he is someone I love and will continue to love very much," said Israel Del Rosario, "
I am the type of person who is very aware of the energy that I maintain
and
I
do not try to impose that on anyone, no matter where. No matter how confusing or upsetting it is personally, it's something I have to deal with and I can't afford to be concerned, "he explained.
