DALLAS, TX—FBI Dallas Special Agent in Charge Joe Rothrock, the Everman Police Department, and the Tarrant County District Attorney’s Office announced today that Cindy Rodriguez Singh has been added to the FBI’s "Ten Most Wanted Fugitives" list. Rodriguez Singh marks the 537th addition to the List. Rodriguez Singh is a capital murder suspect sought in connection with the death of her young son, Noel Alvarez.

Six-year-old Noel Alvarez hasn’t been seen since October 2022. On March 20, 2023, at the request of the Texas Department of Family and Protective Services, Everman Police Department officers conducted a welfare check on behalf of the boy. During the welfare check interview, Rodriguez Singh lied to officers when she explained that the boy was living with his biological father in Mexico and had been there since November 2022. On March 22, 2023, Rodriguez Singh, her husband, and six other juvenile children, boarded an international flight bound for India. The missing child was not present, and did not board the flight.
