Natasha Lea Requejo, a 40-year-old mother of seven, was last seen on July 19, 2024, in Lusk, Wyoming. Her disappearance has sparked growing concern among her family and friends, who say it is highly out of character for her to be out of contact for such an extended period. The Lusk Police Department is investigating her case, which is also listed in the Wyoming Department of Criminal Investigations Missing Persons Database.
The last known contact with Requejo was a phone call she made to her best friend on July 19, 2024, stating she was in Torrington with her boyfriend and on her way back to Lusk. Her friend noted that she sounded happy but possibly under the influence of something. According to Lusk Police Chief Jacob Gordon, Requejo had been staying in Lingle and was picked up by a friend to return to Lusk. She then reportedly left Lusk with another individual. Her boyfriend at the time, Tim Ober, told authorities and friends that Requejo had simply walked off. There have been unconfirmed sightings of her in Casper a couple of weeks after her disappearance, with a gas station employee in Evansville being "100%" certain he saw her about four weeks after she went missing. However, no financial activity has been traced to her, and her phone has been turned off.
Requejo is described as a Caucasian female, standing 5'4" tall and weighing approximately 120 pounds. She has hazel eyes and, at the time of her disappearance, her brown, shoulder-length hair was colored purple. Distinctive physical features include a scar from a cleft palate and cleft lip, piercings on her right eyebrow and bottom lip, and several tattoos. The tattoos include "RVR" on the back of her neck, a frog with a marijuana leaf near her appendix, and multiple flowers on her leg.
Friends and family are particularly worried due to Requejo's medical history, which includes a seizure disorder for which she requires medication. They also acknowledge a past history of drug use. As of early 2025, the Lusk Police Department reported no new developments in the case, and Requejo remains a missing person. Authorities are urging anyone with information regarding Natasha Requejo's whereabouts to contact the Lusk Police Department at 334-4055, the Niobrara Sheriff's Office at 334-2240, or the Wyoming Department of Criminal Investigations at 777-7181.Last Seen: Jul 19, 2024
