Summary based on 2 sources
Cruz Duarte Murillo was reported missing after he was last seen in Bakersfield, California on August 26, 2003. Public case listings classify him as an endangered missing adult, and they note that he has not been heard from again; few additional circumstances have been released publicly.

At the time he disappeared, Murillo was 58 years old and is described as a Hispanic man with gray hair and brown eyes. He was listed as approximately 5'6" and 250 pounds, with a distinguishing mole on his right cheek.

The available case information indicates Murillo suffers from dementia, a detail that helps explain why his disappearance has been treated as high risk. The clothing noted in public records for the day he was last seen includes a green oxford shirt and brown jeans.

The investigating agency identified in public listings is the Bakersfield Police Department, with a contact number of 661-326-3833 for case-related information. The California Department of Justice’s Missing Person Search page also advises the public to contact the law enforcement agency listed in a record or the DOJ toll-free hotline at 1-800-222-FIND if they believe they know a missing person’s whereabouts.

As of the most recent publicly accessible information located online, no official public update confirming that Murillo has been found was identified, and the details available remain limited. His absence represents an enduring, painful uncertainty for the people who care about him, and even small memories—an encounter, a sighting, or a fragment of information—could matter if they help clarify what happened.
