Ismael Barrera Valencia was last seen on July 22, 2001, in Lukeville, Arizona, while crossing the U.S.-Mexico border. He was 42 at the time and described as a Hispanic male, about 5 feet 4 inches to 5 feet 6 inches tall, weighing 155 to 175 pounds, with black hair, dark brown eyes, a small straight mustache, and a scar on his right shoulder.

He was reported wearing a blue soccer team shirt, black pants that may have been jeans, socks possibly blue, black shoes, and carrying $1500. The Pima County Medical Examiner’s Office has a case report dated July 15, 2010. There are no known witnesses to his movements after the last sighting, and the circumstances of his disappearance remain unresolved.

If anyone was in or around Lukeville on July 22, 2001, or knew Ismael’s travel plans, can you share information that might help complete the timeline of his crossing?
