Summary based on the NamUs case record (MP117897) and 9 other sources
In the spring of 2022, a young woman named Leticia Franco, aged 21, vanished from Corpus Christi, Texas. The last time anyone is known to have heard from her was on April 29, 2022. Following an unsettling silence, her family officially reported her missing to the Corpus Christi Police Department on May 9, 2022. At the time of her disappearance, Leticia was described as a Hispanic female, standing 5 feet 3 inches tall and weighing approximately 135 pounds, with brown hair and brown eyes. She was a student, studying criminal science at Colorado Technical University.

Details surrounding the day she was last heard from have raised significant concern for her well-being. According to a friend, Leticia had intended to go to her ex-boyfriend's residence to retrieve some of her personal belongings. It has been reported that she was not seen or heard from after that planned visit. This particular detail has been a central point of concern for her family and in the subsequent investigation. Her family has been persistent in their efforts to find answers, reaching out to the public for any information that might lead to her whereabouts.

The Corpus Christi Police Department launched an investigation into Leticia's disappearance, appealing to the public for assistance. Investigators have encouraged anyone with information, no matter how insignificant it may seem, to come forward. Leticia has distinct tattoos that her family hopes might help in identifying her; these include a rose with the name 'Franco' on her left arm and a tattoo of an angel and a demon clown on her back. The case of Leticia Franco's disappearance is an ongoing investigation, a painful and unresolved chapter for her loved ones who await any news. The central mystery remains what transpired after she was last heard from on that late April day.
