Summary based on the NamUs case record (MP29551) and 7 other sources
Ariza Maria Estreya Olivares, a 16-year-old girl from Mexico, went missing on February 1, 1994, in Pflugerville, Texas. She had been working as a live-in maid for a local family at the time. According to her employer, he last saw her when he dropped her off at a bus station near Laredo, Texas, a city about 250 miles from Pflugerville. Olivares was reportedly planning to travel back to her home country, but she was never heard from again after this point.

At the time of her disappearance, Olivares was described as 5 feet 4 inches tall, weighing about 120 pounds, with black hair, brown eyes, and a distinctive moon-shaped birthmark on her right cheek. She was last seen wearing a blue checkered shirt and blue jeans. Her case remains unsolved, and very few details about her disappearance have surfaced over the years, leaving authorities with minimal leads to pursue.

The case is classified as endangered missing, and both the Travis County Sheriff's Office and the Texas Department of Public Safety continue to list her as missing. Despite the time that has passed, her family and investigators still seek information that could provide answers regarding her disappearance.

This case highlights the vulnerabilities faced by young women, especially those working far from their homes and families, and the challenges that arise in solving such long-term missing person cases.
