Drake Maples was 17 and from Rialto, California when he was found dead on August 9, 1994. Reports at the time indicated his death was not natural and local authorities treated the case as a potential homicide after finding multiple injuries that suggested foul play. Investigators interviewed friends, family and acquaintances and followed several leads, but no arrest or charges have been announced in connection with his death.

The investigation has seen intermittent developments over the years, including new testimony and forensic advances, but none produced a conclusive breakthrough and the case remains open. The community and Maples’ family have continued to seek answers and keep his memory alive.

If anyone knew Drake, was in Rialto in August 1994, or has information that could help, please share what is known.
