Erika Andrea Gaytan, a 29-year-old mother from El Paso, was last seen the night of July 13, 2019, after attending a concert at the El Paso County Coliseum. She had been dropped off at her apartment earlier that evening and posted a selfie and a stage photo during the concert. Erika was last heard from in the early morning hours of July 14 and was reported missing by her family two days later.

At the time she disappeared, Erika faced charges for credit card abuse and criminal mischief, but authorities have said they do not believe she left voluntarily. Her concert date, Ricardo Marquez, was arrested in December 2019 and charged with her murder. Marquez told investigators they argued after the concert and that Erika left his home in a ride-share, but investigators found no ride-share records to support that claim and discovered blood in his vehicle that matched Erika’s DNA. Erika’s body has not been located and the investigation is ongoing.

If anyone who attended the July 13 concert or who knew Erika or Marquez has information about her movements that night, please come forward.
