Summary based on the NamUs case record (MP138492)
Regina Marie Bowen was a 59-year‑old woman who disappeared from the Rio Linda, California area, last seen on October 4, 2024. At the time of her disappearance, she was reported to be experiencing homelessness and had not been in contact with her family. Her last known whereabouts were in Rio Linda, and she has not been seen since that date. Local law enforcement, including the Sacramento County Sheriff’s Office, promptly launched an investigation, focusing resources on locating her and
exploring any possible leads. Her appearance was described as having blond or strawberry-colored hair, green eyes, approximately 5 feet tall, and weighing around 149 pounds.
Her case was added to a national missing persons database under the jurisdiction of the Sacramento County Sheriff’s Office, providing a formal mechanism for tracking and coordinating information with regional and national resources. The lack of confirmed sightings and few new leads contributed to a growing concern among loved ones, advocates, and authorities, intensifying efforts to bring her home safely.
Recently, it was reported that Regina has been found. The details surrounding her location and the nature of her condition remain vague and have not been formally disclosed. No specific date for her recovery is available, and public statements have only confirmed that she is no longer missing, though further information is not yet forthcoming.
Despite the uncertainty, this development offers a measure of reassurance that the chapter of searching may have ended. The emotional toll that her absence placed on friends, family, and the community has been heavy, and knowing that she is no longer missing, even without full clarity, brings relief. Continued compassion and patience are warranted as more details emerge, providing the respect and space necessary for those directly affected to process this outcome.Last Seen: Oct 4, 2024
