Case Description

Any updates on this case? Let us know!
Summary based on the NamUs case record (MP55988) and 6 other sources
Jose Rodriguez, a 20-year-old from Nampa, Idaho, was last seen in November 1991. He was officially reported missing by his mother in 2005, years after he had lost contact with family. At the time of his disappearance, Jose was described as being 5'8" tall, weighing 135 pounds, with black hair. Despite the passage of time, his case remains unsolved, with few leads emerging since his last known contact.

Rodriguez's disappearance has been marked by a lack of concrete information. Given the significant delay between when he went missing and when the report was filed, investigating his case has been particularly challenging. Authorities have not publicly disclosed any details regarding potential foul play, and no suspect or theory has been solidified. As in many cold cases, family and law enforcement continue to seek any new information that might lead to answers, but the case remains open and unsolved.

The case is included in missing persons databases, but it has received relatively little attention over the years. Nampa police, alongside national databases, continue to request public assistance in bringing closure to this long-standing mystery.
Last Seen: Nov 1, 1991
