Brenda Jean Apalacio, 39, was last seen in Albuquerque on the evening of May 26, 2003. She was at a residence near the 3100 block of Lafayette NE with a family member and left that home in the early evening; shortly afterward she vanished and has not been seen or heard from since. She was wearing a white shirt, floral shorts, and white slip-on athletic shoes when last seen.

Brenda is described as Hispanic and Caucasian, with brown hair (sometimes with blonde highlights) and brown eyes. She had several tattoos, including Sad Eyes on her right shoulder and Antonio on her left shoulder, possible additional arm tattoos, pierced ears, and scars on her back and abdomen. The Albuquerque Police Department was notified on May 31, 2003, but investigators faced few leads and no witnesses to the disappearance.

The case remains an active missing person investigation. If anyone knew Brenda, where she spent time, or has information about her movements that night, please share what you know.
