Lucia Chilel Perez, a 40-year-old mother of three who had moved from Guatemala to Worthington, Minnesota, disappeared on June 27, 2011, after going with a family acquaintance, Bernardino Ramirez-Perez, to look for work in northwest Iowa. They were last seen in Ramirez-Perez’s maroon Buick Century. Lucia reportedly visited several businesses that day, including a hog facility where she saw her brother-in-law, and called her sister around 4:00 p.m. saying she would return home soon — a return that never happened.

Ramirez-Perez came back to Worthington alone later that evening with a scratch on his face and gave conflicting accounts, including a claim that Lucia had been detained by immigration officials in Hull, Iowa, which was later shown to be false. He has a documented history of violent criminal behavior, including charges for domestic violence, sexual assault, and kidnapping, and left town shortly after Lucia’s disappearance. No physical evidence has been publicly reported that directly links him to Lucia’s disappearance, but authorities have classified her as an endangered missing person and consider foul play likely.

Does anyone have information about Lucia’s movements in northwest Iowa on June 27, 2011, the maroon Buick Century, or the whereabouts of Bernardino Ramirez-Perez after that day?
