Honor Your Parents
There is an odd story that has been in the headlines a lot the last week.
An Australian couple flew here looking for their adult son. He had come to the United States last month on a vacation, with plans to arrive in Tampa after a non-stop flight from Chicago on October 13.
He called his parents just before boarding his plane in Chicago and apparently told them he would contact them when he arrived in Florida and that he was going to get a cell phone and would pass the number along to them.
He did not call again after that. And, he did not check into the hotel in Tampa at which he had planned to say.
So his parents, Hugo and Faviola, became upset when they did not hear from his since. They used money they had set aside to work on their home and borrowed money form other family members. Then, they flew to the US and checked into a Tampa hotel. They have been busy talking to the police, passing out fliers, and spreading the word about their missing son. Local papers and TV station have run the story.
Recently, a hotel worker who read one of the articles recognized Dennis Mosquera’s picture and called police and the private investigator working with the parents. It seems Dennis stayed at a different hotel between Oct. 16 and 19. That same worker had recorded a contact e-mail and cell phone number.
The phone number was used to reach Dennis Mosquera today. Are you ready for his reply to this entire situation? A situation where his parents have been going out of their heads with worry and spend untold amounts of cash looking for him?
He said he was “working on his business” and hadn’t wanted to talk to anyone. The police plan only to relay to his parents that he is OK.
He’s 30. He still lives at home. He has money to travel extensively, having visited Japan and Europe last year. He sounds spoiled and thoughtless. What a tool.
