Mother Marks Son’s Birthday in Agony as Disappearance in Antigua Nears One Year

A Trinidad and Tobago mother is again pleading for answers as the disappearance of her 21-year-old son in Antigua approaches one year, with no confirmed leads or public alert issued by authorities.

Candy Vasquez said the family recently marked her son Thomas’s birthday without him, describing the moment as “very hard” as uncertainty continues to surround his fate.

Thomas travelled to Antigua for work and vanished on the morning of April 15 while at a farm in Glanville’s Piars, where he had gone to work with a friend. Nearly a year later, his mother says there has been no contact or confirmed sighting.

Vasquez expressed concern about the level of attention given to the case, noting that no official missing persons alert has been issued by police despite the length of time her son has been missing.

She said she reached out to Police Commissioner Everton Jeffers after learning about efforts to bring in outside assistance for cold cases. However, she was reportedly told that Thomas’s case remains an active investigation and has not yet been classified as cold.

Over the past year, she added, bits of unconfirmed information have only deepened her fears about what may have happened.

Despite the uncertainty, Vasquez continues to appeal to the public for help, insisting that “someone, somewhere, knows something” about her son’s disappearance.
