A grandmother has put up her own reward for information leading to the discovery of her grandchildren who went missing last month after their mother’s death.

Sacramento Police Department said on August 8 that Camron Lee, a Korean-American man in his 30s, is believed to have killed his wife and then fled with their children.

Lee fled to Mexico and the children were allegedly left behind in Southern California. Since then, an investigation has been ongoing to find the missing siblings, Athena Lee (4) and Mateo Lee (2), but they have not yet been found.

“I know there is someone who knows where they are, and I just hope they can tell me where they are,” said their maternal grandmother, Dawn Bodea, who has offered a $10,000 reward. “I want them to know that their families love them and I pray that they come back safely.”

Gilbert Bravo, 18, the brother of deceased victim Angelica Bravo, the mother of the boys, told FOX News on August 12, “I feel sadness and anger at the loss of my sister,” adding, “This is the hardest thing I’ve ever been through.”
