FBI offers $25,000 reward for information on Cindy Rodriguez Singh, suspected of killing her son
The FBI is offering a reward of up to $25,000 for information leading to the arrest and conviction of Cindy Rodriguez Singh, who is wanted in connection with the death of her infant son.
Rodriguez Singh, who has ties to both Mexico and India, is sought by authorities after her 6-year-old son was last seen alive in October 2022. The search intensified following a welfare check conducted by an officer from the Everman Police Department on March 20, 2023, at the request of the Texas Department of Family and Protective Services.
According to the FBI, Rodriguez Singh misled officers during the welfare check, claiming that her son had been living with his biological father in Mexico since November 2022. On March 22, 2023, Rodriguez Singh, her spouse, and their six other children boarded an international flight to India. The missing child did not board the flight with them.
Rodriguez Singh was formally charged with capital homicide on October 31, 2023, in Tarrant County District Court, Fort Worth, Texas. She faces additional charges of ‘Unlawful Flight’ to avoid prosecution. On November 2, 2023, a federal arrest warrant was issued for her by the United States District Court, Northern District of Texas, in Fort Worth.
Dallas FBI Special Agent in Charge Chad Yarbrough has urged the public and media to assist in locating Rodriguez Singh. "Cindy Rodriguez Singh is wanted for allegedly murdering her own young son," Yarbrough stated. "I am confident that the combination of publicity, a substantial reward, and the collaborative efforts of the FBI Fort Worth Resident Agency’s violent crime squad, Everman Police Department, Tarrant County District Attorney's Office, and Texas DPS-Texas Rangers will lead to her arrest."
Rodriguez Singh, 39, was last seen on March 22, 2023, when she and her family flew to India. She was born in Dallas, Texas, in 1985. Rodriguez Singh is described as weighing between 120 and 140 pounds, standing 5 feet 1 inch to 5 feet 3 inches tall, with medium-toned skin. She has tattoos on her back, both legs, right arm, right hand, and right calf. Her hair and eyes are brown.

CM Siddaramaiah alleges ‘criminal conspiracy’ in Sringeri recount, vows legal action
Bengaluru (PTI): Alleging a “criminal conspiracy” by BJP candidate D N Jeevaraj in the Sringeri Assembly poll recounting, Karnataka CM Siddaramaiah on Tuesday said the outcome was manipulated after valid postal ballot votes in favour of Congress leader T D Raje Gowda were tampered with during the recounting process.
Following a Karnataka High Court order on an election petition filed by Jeevaraj, challenging Raje Gowda’s election, the reverification and recounting were conducted on Saturday.
After the reverification and recount of postal ballots for the Sringeri Assembly constituency, votes polled in favour of Raje Gowda were reduced by 255, the returning officer said.
A report on the matter has been submitted to the Election Commission of India for further action, the officer added.
Congress leader Raje Gowda had won the 2023 Assembly polls from Sringeri by 201 votes, defeating his nearest rival Jeevaraj.
Addressing a press conference in Bengaluru, Siddaramaiah said the High Court had directed the recounting of postal ballots and that irregularities were noticed during the exercise conducted on May 2.
“This is a clear case of criminal conspiracy,” Siddaramaiah said, alleging that valid votes cast in favour of Raje Gowda were altered after being accepted by counting agents of all parties, including Congress, BJP, and JD(S).
He claimed that during the recounting of postal ballots, 255 votes were initially accepted as valid by all agents but were later tampered with by subordinate officials.
“There is a second mark on the votes polled in favour of Raje Gowda. They had accepted these as valid votes. Subsequently, another mark was made by officials. This is a clear case of criminal conspiracy,” he said.
When asked who was behind the alleged conspiracy, the CM replied, “It was hatched by Jeevaraj and others. It is planned.”
Siddaramaiah further alleged that the returning officer acted improperly by declaring the result despite the presence of an Election Commission observer during the recounting.
“Immediately after the counting, the returning officer announced the result. He should not have done so; this is against the law,” he said.
He pointed out that Raje Gowda had originally won by 201 votes, but after the recounting, the BJP candidate was declared the winner by 52 votes.
“The BJP has committed a criminal act of conspiracy. This is not vote chori but vote dacoity,” he alleged.
The CM said a police complaint had already been filed by Raje Gowda’s election agent, Sudhir Kumar, and emphasised the need for electoral integrity.
“We want transparency and free and fair elections. That is what our Constitution mandates,” he added.
Stating that the government would pursue legal remedies, Siddaramaiah said, “We are preparing an appeal challenging the returning officer’s announcement in a court of law.”
Responding to a separate query on elections in other states, the CM said there appeared to be an anti-incumbency factor in West Bengal, while results in Tamil Nadu were “surprising,” adding that Vijay’s party was emerging as the largest there.
Following the victory of party candidates in Bagalkote and Davanagere South, Siddaramaiah expressed confidence about future electoral prospects in Karnataka.
“Even in 2028, we will win the Assembly elections. We will come back,” the CM said.
Siddaramaiah added that he would order a forensic examination into the alleged tampering of postal ballots.
