Teresa Marie Barbusca, a 16-year-old girl, was reported missing on May 25, 1999, from Sacramento, California. At the time, she was described as 5'0" to 5'1" tall, weighing around 100 pounds, with brown hair and blue eyes. Teresa had a tattoo of her initials "TB" on the back of her right shoulder and had recently highlighted her hair.
On the day of her disappearance, Teresa left home and traveled to Stockton, California, with three friends in a borrowed van. After spending time with her friends, they dropped her off at the Days Inn motel near Weber Street and Center Street in Stockton, where she was reportedly set to meet a male acquaintance named Phillip. Following this drop-off, Teresa was never heard from again.
Teresa had a history of running away, having left home on two previous occasions while her family lived in Daly City, California. Her mother indicated that Teresa had exhibited a rebellious streak and had been involved with drugs around the time of her disappearance. There are unconfirmed reports of her being spotted in San Francisco shortly after she went missing, but no solid leads have emerged in her case.
