Missing Sacramento children's father wanted for homicide after mother found dead
SACRAMENTO – Sacramento detectives say they have secured a homicide arrest warrant for Camron Lee in connection with the death of Angelica Bravo, the mother of two children who vanished after she was found dead in a north Sacramento home.
The Sacramento Police Department announced on Wednesday it secured the homicide arrest warrant for Lee, nine months after Bravo, 28, was found dead in a home at Didcot Circle on July 8, 2024.
Bravo's two children, 4-year-old Athena Lee and 3-year-old Mateo Lee, have been missing since.
Police said Camron, 39, is the father of the two children and was last seen crossing the border into Mexico just a few days after Bravo was found dead.
The Sacramento County coroner said it found multiple abrasions and contusions on Bravo's head, face, torso and extremities. They also found tongue bleeding.
The coroner also noted that while there was no definitive evidence of strangulation identified, the possibility of asphyxiation by smothering could not be entirely ruled out. It added that a toxicology report found the presence of MDMA, MDA and cannabinoids, which raises the possibility of a drug overdose.
Based on the autopsy's report, the coroner said homicidal violence could not be fully excluded as a potential cause.
Up until this point, Camron was never called a suspect but was wanted for questioning in Bravo's death. Now, investigators have enough reason to believe Bravo's death was a homicide and issued an arrest warrant for Camron.
"Our department continues to work to locate Angelica's children, Athena and Mateo Lee and prioritize their safety and well-being," the police department said in a statement.
"We just want to know that they're safe and we want them to come home," said Dawn Bodea, Bravo's mother. "I just feel it in my heart. I know they are out there and I know they are going to come home. Just really eager and can't wait to see them, love them. Miss them so much."
Investigators told CBS13 that they do not believe the children of the wanted murder suspect are in imminent danger, but they could not give a reason why as it is still an active investigation.
Anyone with information is urged to contact the Sacramento Police Department.
