Esperanza Salazar-Rodriguez, 51, was last seen August 1, 2014, in Bakersfield, California. She told family she planned to visit relatives in Mexico and phoned them the day she disappeared saying she was at the border, but she never arrived and has not been heard from since. At the time she had no vehicle or cell phone and was known to travel by bus.

Esperanza is described as a Hispanic female, 5 feet 1 inch, about 100 pounds, with black hair, brown eyes and a distinctive green clover tattoo on her back. Her case remains unsolved and investigators continue to seek information.
