Summary based on the NamUs case record (MP24016)
Fernando Senties-Nieto, a 33-year-old doctor, disappeared on November 15, 2013, following a tragic airplane accident. He was aboard a Learjet 35 that crashed about a mile offshore from Fort Lauderdale Airport, Florida. The flight was en route to Cozumel, Mexico, when the accident occurred shortly after takeoff. Senties-Nieto, a well-regarded hyperbaric medicine specialist from Cozumel, was one of four people on the plane, including a nurse, Mariana González Isunza, and two pilots.

Despite recovery efforts, only partial debris was found, scattered as far north as Boynton Beach. Unfortunately, Senties-Nieto and one of the pilots were never recovered, and their remains remain missing. His disappearance left a profound impact on the Cozumel community, where he was known for his medical expertise and beloved by many.

The crash was investigated by authorities, but the exact cause remains unclear. The disappearance of Senties-Nieto is part of a larger tragedy involving the loss of multiple lives, making the case a somber memory for those who knew him.
