Overview

• Rodriguez‑Singh was arrested in India and transported to the United States, where the FBI says she will be turned over to Texas authorities.
• She faces a Texas count of capital murder of a person under 10 and a federal charge of unlawful flight to avoid prosecution, following an October 2023 indictment and a November 2023 warrant.
• Everman police conducted a welfare check on March 20, 2023, after Noel Rodriguez‑Álvarez had not been seen since October 2022, and investigators say his mother gave false information about his whereabouts.
• Two days after the welfare check, Rodriguez‑Singh flew to India with her husband and six other children; investigators confirmed Noel was not on the flight and he remains missing and presumed dead.
• Authorities cited an INTERPOL Red Notice issued on Oct. 3, 2024, her addition to the FBI’s Ten Most Wanted list in July 2025, and a reward increase to $250,000 as key steps that led to the arrest.
