Summary based on the NamUs case record (MP29852) and 5 other sources
Jesus Garcia, a 34-year-old U.S. Army veteran who served in Afghanistan, was last seen on January 31, 2015. On the night of February 2, 2015, Jesus and his brother, Ernesto Garcia, a U.S. Marine Corps veteran, disappeared after leaving Matamoros, Mexico. The two brothers regularly made trips to visit family in Matamoros but would typically travel back to the U.S. during the day. However, on this occasion, they left around 2 AM, which was unusual for them.

Their family reported them missing after they failed to return to their home in Brownsville, Texas. Despite ongoing investigations, no trace of Jesus or Ernesto has been found. The circumstances of their disappearance remain a mystery, and authorities have called for public assistance in gathering more information about the case. Investigators are urging anyone with information to come forward as the search for the brothers continues.
