I'd like to propose removing entries that haven't been updated in over 15 years. The list has become unwieldy, and many of these cases are unlikely to be resolved. This would free up space for more recent cases that might benefit from public attention.

Strongly oppose this proposal. Just because a case is old doesn't mean it's not important. Families still search for answers. The list exists precisely to keep these cases visible. Please consider the human element here.

I agree with ColdCaseWatcher. Some of these cases have seen breakthroughs after decades. Perhaps instead of removal, we could add a "last verified" timestamp to each entry.

I'm working on the "Missing Persons in California" section and have noticed inconsistencies. The entry for Elena Vasquez lists her as missing from "Los Angeles, 2008" but other sources say "San Diego, 2007". Can anyone verify the correct details?

There's also very little information about her - no photo, no details about her life. It's like she just... vanished.

I need to say something that I've never told anyone...

I was 8 years old in 2007. Elena Vasquez lived two houses down from us. I remember her - she would wave at me when I played outside. She had a green backpack and long brown hair.

The night she disappeared, I saw a car parked outside her house for hours. I remember because my mom told me to come inside but I wanted to watch the stars. The car was dark. It stayed there until very late.

I never told anyone. I was 8. I didn't understand what was happening. But now, reading this thread, I realize I might be the only person who saw something that night.
