Summary based on the NamUs case record (MP78240) and 2 other sources
Caitlin McManus, a 30-year-old woman, was last seen on December 31, 2018, in Rancho Mirage, California. Caitlin had flown into Palm Springs on December 22, 2018, to visit family and was staying in Rancho Mirage during the holiday season. Her family reported her missing after she had no contact with them following that date. Several months later, on April 23, 2019, Caitlin was reportedly in contact with police, but she has not been heard from or seen since.

Caitlin's case is classified as endangered due to concerns about her well-being and possible need for medical attention. Few details have emerged about the circumstances of her disappearance, and the investigation remains open. Authorities are urging anyone with information to come forward. Caitlin is described as being 5'7", weighing 110 pounds, with blonde hair and brown eyes.
