Misael Margarito Sanchez was 16 when he vanished from Snohomish, Washington. He was last seen on August 8, 2011. At the time he was described as a Hispanic male with black hair and brown eyes, about five feet five inches tall and 135 pounds, with a tattoo of letters on his left wrist and pierced ears.

Snohomish County Sheriff’s Office handled the investigation. Early on they said they believed Misael may have left of his own accord and there was speculation he might have traveled to Mexico. The National Center for Missing & Exploited Children produced an age-progressed image to show how he might look older. Beyond those leads, there have been few confirmed sightings or contact.

If anyone knew Misael, his routines, or saw him around Snohomish in August 2011, please share what can help locate him.
