Judith Lopez told reporters following the discovery of his son’s body: “I guess it gives us the peace of mind, knowing that he was found, but I didn’t want it to be this way.”
Judith Lopez created a Go Fund Me page in order to hire a Private Investigator. Judith also reveals a police report was created on 11/17/2015, three days after her son’s disappearance because the police department refused to create it in the first 48 hours claiming that Anthony “is healthy and he just wanted to be left alone.”
Judith Lopez assured Anthony –who was a full time student at Lehman College aiming to become a CPA –never left the house before. Leaving all of his personal belongings behind, including his dog, Sampson.
