  • Please, Google-search BMI if you aren't familiar with the phrase. I think it's an important tool to be aware of when working on missing person cases.
  • If a photo can't be found, rely on BMI, height, weight, ethnicity, and other physical features to describe or picture the person.
Maria Vazquez Hernandez was last heard from on February 29th, 2004, when she was 26 years of age.
She has now been missing for 17 years as of the original publication date of this blog post.

This is a difficult case with few details available. There was no photo available of the missing person. Nor are there any great leads when it comes to the NamUs description.

However, I did wonder if I found a marriage certificate for this individual. The age appeared to be off by one year. I will not publish the details but kept them in my notes. If anyone is working on this case, you can private message me for discussion.

By: Shane Lambert Season 2 of the hit TV show Forensic Files  included an episode (Episode 12) that contained information that those that work on missing person cases should note. The episodes tell of the missing person's case of Dario Cicolecchia, a boy in Switzerland who went missing in 1993. Importantly, this boy was found, his murderer was apprehended, and this murderer also made statements to the police about how he operated. I think there's a nugget of information that's worth extracting from this case and using it as food for thought in similar cases. Dario Goes Missing Dario went missing after departing his home on a bicycle to go fishing. He was later found dead and mutilated in a Swiss cornfield. Forensic Medicine, the branch of forensics that deals with the body, was used in this case and it was discovered that the boy had been drowned.

Posted by: Shane Lambert The following newspaper articles have to do with the disappearance of Beverly Sharpman in 1947. The two articles below are from the same source and date.
