Maria de Jesus Mazon-Martinez, 41, was last seen February 1, 2006, in the vicinity of Lukeville on the Arizona–Mexico border in Pima County. She was described as Hispanic, about 5 feet 0 inches to 5 feet 2 inches tall and between 133 and 153 pounds. Details about her hair and eye color, what she was wearing, and her transportation are not known.

Her last known location is a sparsely populated, rugged desert area where search efforts can be difficult and the nearby international border raises the possibility she may have crossed into Mexico voluntarily or under duress. The Pima County Sheriff’s Department and the Pima County Office of the Medical Examiner are involved and her information is listed in national missing persons databases. Many questions remain about her movements after February 1, 2006.

If anyone saw Maria in the Lukeville area around that date or has information about her movements, please share what is known.
