Invisible for a Year: The Jacqueline Mimi Torres Case

Invisible for a Year: The Jacqueline “Mimi” Torres-García Case

When eleven-year-old Jacqueline “Mimi” Torres-García vanished from New Britain, Connecticut, no one realized she’d been missing for nearly a year. Her mother claimed she was being homeschooled. The truth was much darker.

In this emotional and deeply researched episode, Red Flags & Body Bags unpacks the shocking case that’s now sparking national outrage and a push for Mimi’s Law — legislation to protect homeschooled children and close child-welfare loopholes.

We’ll walk through the timeline of Mimi’s disappearance, the investigation that uncovered her tragic death, and how the same red flags appeared in cases like Harmony Montgomery, Adrian Jones, and Gabriel Fernandez. This is the story of a child who became invisible — and the movement demanding that never happen again.

Topics Covered:

The disappearance and discovery of Jacqueline “Mimi” Torres-García
DCF oversight failures & the homeschooling loophole
Arrests of Karla Garcia, Jonatan Nanita, and Jackelyn Garcia
Public outcry and the proposed Mimi’s Law
Parallels to other U.S. child-protection cases
