Summary based on the NamUs case record (CP999656095)
Robert Louis Valenzuela, a Hispanic man who was 31 years old at the time of his disappearance, was last seen in Long Beach, California in 2020 and has not been heard from since. Publicly available case summaries indicate that very little has been released about what led up to his disappearance or what he may have been doing in the hours or days before he vanished, leaving family and community members with more questions than answers.
Because the circumstances are described as limited and vague in the public record, there are no widely published details about a last known address, vehicle, clothing, companions, or a confirmed direction of travel. The information that is available emphasizes the central fact that contact stopped and he did not return, with no confirmed sightings publicly documented afterward.
Identification details have been shared to help the public recognize him. He is described as 5’11” and about 145 pounds, with black hair and green eyes. Distinguishing marks noted in public listings include a tattoo on his forehead, a tattoo of his last name “Valenzuela” on his abdomen, and scars on his ankles; records also note that his middle name may sometimes be spelled “Luis.”
The investigating agency listed for the case is the Long Beach Police Department, and the number commonly published with the case is 562-435-6711. Anyone who believes they may have information is encouraged to share it with law enforcement, even if it seems small or uncertain, because small observations can sometimes connect larger dots in long-running missing-person investigations.
In California, missing-person efforts are supported by statewide resources intended to help agencies compare identifying information and pursue leads across jurisdictions. The California Department of Justice’s Missing and Unidentified Persons Section describes its role as assisting law enforcement with locating missing people and identifying unknown individuals through comparisons of physical characteristics, fingerprints, and dental/body X-rays, and it maintains a statewide framework to support those efforts.Last Seen: Feb 15, 2020
