Aunts of Rudy Farias, who police said has not actually been missing for the past eight years, called the decision not to charge they boy’s mother “bulls***” at a news conference.

The police also said on Thursday that Janie Santana, Mr Farias’ mother, filed a missing person’s report for her son on 6 March 2015 but that he actually returned home the following day. An open investigation for the 25-year-old continued until his mother said he had been discovered outside a church in Houston, Texas on 29 June.
