In the winter of 1996, a young man named Jose Zarasoza Fierro vanished from Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, leaving behind a void of information and a family searching for answers. He was 22 years old at the time of his disappearance on December 19, 1996. Known to his friends and loved ones as "Joe" or "Zaragozo," Jose was last seen by friends, but the specific details of what transpired on that day remain largely unknown to the public. Jose is described as a Hispanic male, standing at 5'6" and weighing approximately 150 pounds, with brown hair and brown eyes. A distinguishing feature is a tattoo of the word "LOCO" on the knuckles of his left hand. At the time he went missing, he was also noted to have a mustache. The circumstances surrounding Jose's disappearance are shrouded in mystery, as very few details have ever been released to the public. The official narrative simply states that he was last seen by friends on that December day. The lack of information has made the investigation incredibly challenging for the Oklahoma City Police Department, the agency handling his case. Despite the passage of decades, the case remains open, a lingering question in the files of unsolved missing persons. Information regarding what he was wearing or any potential reasons for his disappearance has not been made public, leaving a painful silence for those who knew him. The years have stretched on, turning a period of immediate concern into a long and arduous wait for any news. Jose's case is a somber reminder of the many individuals who disappear without a trace, leaving their families to navigate a world of uncertainty. The investigation into what happened to Jose Zarasoza Fierro continues, and authorities still hope for a break in the case that might finally provide answers. The overview of the case is one of a sudden and unexplained disappearance, with a lack of substantial leads or public information to shed light on the events of that day. The primary details available are his physical description and the date he was last seen by friends, leaving a decades-long mystery in its wake.
