One-year-old Jasmine Ortiz was last seen in Galax, Virginia, on May 28, 2004. She was described as having light brown hair and blue eyes, about 2 feet 8 inches tall and 30 pounds, with pierced ears. Investigators believed she may have been in the company of an adult female who was reportedly traveling in a green 1994 Mercury sedan with Virginia plate C-ORTIZ.

The case was entered into NamUs as MP1556 and into the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children as 989972; the National Missing and Unidentified Persons System entry was added on February 7, 2009. The U.S. Marshal’s Service is listed among the agencies involved and the Galax Police Department retains the case file. Some unconfirmed online posts have claimed Jasmine was found safe, but those reports have not been substantiated by law enforcement or the major missing-person databases, which continue to list her as missing.

Are there anyone in the Galax area who remembers the green Mercury or the woman reported to be with Jasmine on May 28, 2004?
