Rivera was declared missing after her 4-year-old son, Josey, was found asleep alone on a boat on Lake Piru in Ventura County. According to officials, Rivera and her son had rented the boat about three hours before she was discovered to be missing.

The officials also reportedly revealed that Josey told authorities that he went swimming with his mother, but she never made it back to the boat.
