NamUs documents confirm the date of last contact as March 5, 2018, and list her demographics including age, ethnicity, and physical descriptors. “Uncovered,” a cold‑case platform, also mirrors this information, confirming her disappearance occurred in Kansas City, KS on March 5, 2018, and lists her race as Hispanic/Latino and gender as female.
A Facebook post referencing her case described her as a “Latino female of Hispanic ethnicity” who was 16 at the time, with matching physical traits: 5′ 0″, 150 lbs, black hair, brown eyes. It urged anyone with information to contact the Kansas City, Kansas Police Department at 1‑913‑596‑3000.
Beyond those core facts, specific circumstances surrounding her disappearance remain sparse. Uncovered notes “little information is available regarding the circumstances” of her case, and it remains unsolved to this day. A community awareness campaign conducted in October 2018—the Big Search KC event—highlighted Balderrama among roughly 30 missing youth in the Kansas City metro, seeking volunteers to canvass and distribute flyers advocating for her safe return.
