Jesse Robert Kaslov


Left: Jesse, circa 1998;
Right: Age progression to age 7 (circa 2003)


Vital Statistics at Time of Disappearance

Missing Since: January 20, 1998 from South River, New Jersey
Classification: Family Abduction
Date of Birth: December 16, 1996
Age: 1 year old
Height and Weight: 3'0, 30 pounds
Distinguishing Characteristics: Caucasian male. Brown hair, brown eyes.


Details of Disappearance

Jesse was last seen in South River, New Jersey on January 20, 1998. He has never been heard from again. He may be with his non-custodial mother, Christina Mitchell. A photo and vital statistics for Mitchell are posted below. A felony warrant was issued for her on January 21, 2000.
Jesse's father, Ronnie Kaslov, is a Gypsy (also known as a Romany) and obtained a divorce from Mitchell under Gypsy law. While they were fighting over custody of Jesse, Ronnie was allowed to see him for supervised visits two hours a week. Mitchell and her parents fled with Jesse before the custody issue could be resolved.

Ronnie has accused police of not properly investigating Jesse's abduction because the family are Gypsies. Authorities stated that they have tried to find Jesse, but the Gypsy lifestyle makes it difficult. American Gypsies are an insular group who typically withdraw their children from school after the eighth grade and do not have birth certificates or bank accounts, and they are not counted in most censuses. Ronnie is not legally married to Christina under United States law and authorities stated they were not even certain he is Jesse's biological father.

Investigators stated they talked to Mitchell's family members and all of them claimed they had not heard from her or Jesse. Jesse and Mitchell are probably using aliases. The child's case remains unsolved.

Jesse Robert Kaslov

Last seen in South River, New Jersey on January 20, 1998


Vital statistics: Born on December 16, 1996. Brown hair, brown eyes. He is of Romani descent. Was one at the time.

NCIC number: M-860690285

Circumstances: Ronnie Kaslov and Christina Mitchell, Jesse's parents, have been married and divorced under Romani, sometimes refered to as "Gypsy" laws. Many Romani live in an isolated manner, not registering births or interacting with much of society. Ronnie was allowed to see his son until Mitchell vanished with him. A photo and vital statistics for her are posted below. Ronnie has gotten custody of Jesse in courts but police did not issue a warrant until January 21, 2000, almost two years later. Ronnie claims he is being discriminated against because of his ethnic background. Other family of Mitchell say they do not know her or Jesse's whereabouts, and due to their lifestyle they would be hard to track. Police have questioned Kaslov's paternity, and say it is difficult to file charges because there is no record of a marriage.


Above: Christina Mitchell in 1998

Vital statistics: Born on June 19, 1971. Brown hair, brown eyes. Mitchell may walk with a slight limp and she may dye her hair another color. She uses the aliases "Tammy White" and "Christina Ryan". Was twenty-six at the time.

If you have any information as to Jesse's whereabouts, please contact the Middlesex County Prosecutor's Office at 732-745-3300. Any information recieved can be kept confidential.
