Summary based on the NamUs case record (MP7603) and 5 other sources
Beatrice Cubelos-Lopez, aged 38, was last seen on September 24, 1989, in Albuquerque, New Mexico. That night, Beatrice, along with a longtime male friend and another man, visited the Silver Fox Lounge. Afterward, they returned to her friend’s apartment near Candelaria and 2nd Street. In the early hours, around 4:30 a.m., Beatrice asked her friend for a ride home. Unfortunately, the car's battery was dead, and her friend suggested waiting until morning to borrow jumper cables. Beatrice decided not to wait and left on foot, potentially planning to hitchhike, but she never made it home and has not been heard from since.

Beatrice struggled with bipolar disorder and other mental health conditions and was possibly not taking her medication at the time of her disappearance. She had a history of traveling around the United States, sometimes with her children and sometimes leaving them in the care of their grandparents. When Beatrice vanished, she was wearing jeans, a tank top, and sneakers. She also wore distinctive large light-colored plastic-framed glasses and had several unique identifiers, including tattoos and scars.

Despite investigations, her case remains unsolved, and authorities suspect she may have tried to hitchhike home, which adds to concerns surrounding her disappearance.
