Maria Magdalena Garcia was 24 when she stopped all contact on November 6, 2003. She was living at an unknown address in Salem, Oregon, at the time she vanished. Maria is Hispanic and White/Caucasian, with black hair, brown eyes, five feet one inch tall and about 140 pounds.

Shortly before she disappeared Maria spoke by phone with her mother and reportedly said she wanted to leave her current situation; no further contact followed. Friends have suggested she may have gone to Mexico, but that possibility has not been confirmed. There are no public details about what she was last wearing or whether she had personal belongings with her, and the investigation has produced few concrete leads.

If anyone knew Maria’s movements in Salem around November 2003 or has information that could help her family, please come forward.
