Summary based on the NamUs case record (MP51075) and 3 other sources
Cecil Trampota, aged 34, was last seen on February 26, 1989, in Oxnard, California. On the day of his disappearance, Cecil was wearing a red sweater and blue pants. Standing at 5'9" and weighing 150 pounds, he had brown hair, green eyes, and a distinguishing feature—a chipped front tooth. Cecil was last seen in the Oxnard area, but after that day, he has not been heard from again.

There is limited information about the circumstances surrounding his disappearance, and no significant leads have emerged in the years since. His case remains open and unsolved. Despite being missing for over three decades, authorities, including the Ventura County Sheriff's Department, continue to seek any information that may help resolve his case.
