Summary based on the NamUs case record (MP50890) and 6 other sources
In the spring of 2018, concern began to grow for 47-year-old Amadeo Sanders Figueroa in Tucson, Arizona. For about a week leading up to his disappearance, Amadeo had been in frequent contact with his sister, his calls carrying a noticeable tone of worry. The last time she heard from him was on April 22, 2018. During that final phone call, Amadeo asked his sister to pick him up from the Casino Del Sol. She agreed and made her way to the casino, but by the time she arrived approximately 30 minutes later, Amadeo was nowhere to be found. A sense of unease settled in as his sister began to search for him.

Her search for answers led her to speak with people at the casino and to check on his living situation. An unidentified Hispanic male at the casino informed her that he had seen Amadeo leaving the premises on foot. Adding to the growing concern, when his sister went to his residence, she was told that his landlord had evicted him earlier that day. This series of events painted a troubling picture of Amadeo's state of mind and the instability he was facing at the time of his disappearance. The Pima County Sheriff's Department was notified and a missing person report was filed, officially beginning the investigation into his whereabouts.

The circumstances surrounding Amadeo's disappearance are unsettling. The fact that he was reaching out to his sister with concern in his voice suggests he may have been in some form of distress. His eviction on the same day he went missing adds another layer of vulnerability to his situation. Further investigation revealed that Amadeo had not used his food stamps in the three months prior to his disappearance and had no other known source of income, indicating potential financial hardship. His phone, a critical link to his whereabouts and well-being, has not been answered or used since the end of April 2018. The case of Amadeo Figueroa is a story of a man who seemingly vanished after a period of personal difficulty, leaving his family with unanswered questions and a profound sense of loss.
