Summary based on the NamUs case record (MP1123) and 4 other sources
In the winter of 1995, a mother vanished from her family's residence in Phoenix, Arizona, leaving behind a mystery that has endured for decades. On December 22, 1995, 33-year-old Rosario Acosta Zazueta was last seen at her home in the vicinity of the 4000 block of West Thomas Road. At the time of her disappearance, she was described as a Hispanic female with brown curly hair and brown eyes. She had pierced ears and was believed to be wearing a long-sleeved pink and white striped pajama top and bottoms. Since that day, friends and family have not reported any contact with her, and her whereabouts remain unknown.

The circumstances surrounding Rosario's disappearance led investigators to suspect that she may have been a victim of foul play. The Phoenix Police Department opened an investigation into her case, which has remained active over the years. Despite the passage of time, law enforcement has continued to seek information that could shed light on what happened to her. Her case is classified as one of endangered missing, highlighting the concerns for her safety and well-being. The lack of any communication or sightings of Rosario since she went missing has been a source of enduring pain and uncertainty for her loved ones.

The investigation into Rosario Zazueta's disappearance is ongoing, and authorities continue to ask for the public's help. Over the years, her case has been featured on various platforms dedicated to missing persons in the hope of generating new leads. The Phoenix Police Department and other agencies have maintained her file, updating it as any new, albeit limited, information becomes available. The central facts of the case remain unchanged: Rosario, a young mother, disappeared from her home without a trace, and authorities suspect she met with foul play. Her family has been left without answers, holding onto hope for a resolution to a case that has spanned more than two decades.
