Ricardo Ortiz was 24 when he was last known to be in Yuma, Arizona, around January 1, 2008. Details about what he was doing that day are unclear, and the initial lack of concrete information has left his family with few leads.

Family members were told Ricardo was detained in Yuma on February 8, 2008, but that reported interaction with authorities has not produced a clear explanation of his whereabouts afterward. The Pima County Office of the Medical Examiner later filed a report linked to this case, which carries case number MP16053.

Does anyone in Yuma or the surrounding area remember Ricardo or have information about his movements in January and February 2008?
