Modelle Mayo, aged 82, passed away on February 21, 2006, in Albuquerque, New Mexico. Public records do not indicate that her death was the result of a homicide. Consequently, there are no reports of arrests, suspects, or investigations related to her passing.
During that period, Albuquerque was grappling with significant criminal cases, such as the West Mesa murders. Between 2003 and 2006, at least 19 women disappeared, with many later found buried in the West Mesa area. These cases involved extensive investigations to identify suspects and bring perpetrators to justice.
However, there is no evidence linking Modelle Mayo's death to any criminal activity or to the broader criminal cases in Albuquerque at that time. Her passing appears to have been due to natural causes, and no further details regarding arrests or suspects are associated with her death.
