Sandra Gutierrez was 16 when she went missing on July 17, 2005, from Calexico, California. She was last seen in the All American Canal just south of the U.S.-Mexico border in Mexicali, Mexico, with a family friend who watched her drift into the deep part of the canal and was unable to reach or find her afterward.

At the time she disappeared Sandra was described as a Hispanic female, 5 feet 4 inches tall, about 115 pounds, with black hair. Despite search efforts, she was never found and the case remains unsolved. Her family and authorities continue to seek information that could bring answers and closure.

If anyone was in the All American Canal area on July 17, 2005, or has information about Sandra’s movements that day, please come forward.
