Summary based on the NamUs case record (MP15875) and 2 other sources
Maria de Jesus Mazon-Martinez, a 41-year-old Hispanic female, was last seen on February 1, 2006. Her last known location was in the vicinity of Lukeville, a small community on the Arizona-Mexico border in Pima County. At the time of her disappearance, she was described as being between 5'0' and 5'2' tall and weighing between 133 and 153 pounds. Details regarding her hair and eye color are not publicly available. The circumstances surrounding her disappearance remain unclear, leaving her family and investigators with many unanswered questions about what might have happened to her after she was last seen in the remote border region.

The area where Maria was last seen, near Lukeville, is a sparsely populated and rugged desert environment. This terrain can present significant challenges for search and rescue operations, as well as for individuals who may become lost or find themselves in distress. The proximity to the international border also adds a layer of complexity to the case, as it opens up the possibility of her having crossed into Mexico, either voluntarily or under duress. The Pima County Sheriff's Department, along with the Pima County Office of the Medical Examiner, are the primary agencies involved in the investigation into her disappearance.

Over the years, the case of Maria de Jesus Mazon-Martinez has remained open, with her information entered into national missing persons databases in the hope that new leads or information will emerge. Despite the passage of time, efforts to locate her or determine her fate continue. The lack of specific details about what she was wearing or her mode of transportation has made the investigation particularly challenging. The overview of this case is one of profound uncertainty, a painful reality for a family left without answers, and a stark reminder of the vulnerabilities faced by individuals in remote border areas. The investigation has been hampered by the limited information available from the outset, making it difficult to piece together a clear timeline of events leading up to her disappearance.
