From The Signal Tribune (sigtrib.com):
An entire family has gone missing after last being seen in Long Beach on Dec. 29, 2022. The parents both have felony arrest warrants, and authorities believe they are concealing their two young children.
Claudiu Stoian and Madalina Paun were in the news in 2022 after they were arrested in connection with a string of scams and robberies that occurred in Los Angeles.
According to media reports, while Stoian and Paun were allegedly committing the crimes, they had two young children in the car with them. It could not be confirmed as of press time whether the two children they allegedly brought with them during their suspected crimes were their two toddlers, Matusalem Stoian and Amalia Stoian.
The couple would allegedly drive around the LA area in a SUV with the children, pull up next to pedestrians, and ask to “bless” their money or jewelry. Paun would then allegedly remove the victims’ valuables before replacing them with costume jewelry and lottery tickets. The Los Angeles Police Department said that on one occasion Stoian allegedly took out a gun.
It is unknown at this time whether the current felony arrest warrant out on the two parents are related to their alleged crimes in 2022, or on different charges.
While the Long Beach Police Department said it does not believe the children are in immediate danger, detectives are concerned for their welfare.
Anyone who believes they have seen the family or has information about their whereabouts is urged to contact the police.
