On September 30, 2022, authorities discovered the body of Jose Edward Alvarez-Jr, identified via Namus ID: UCP99414, at his residence in Palmdale, California. Despite exhaustive efforts, no next of kin has been located or notified about his death. The case remains open as an unclaimed person incident, with the relevant details still accessible for public assistance in tracing any living relatives or acquaintances who may assist in ensuring that Alvarez-Jr is given the respect and closure deserved in his passing.
The investigation into Alvarez-Jr's death revealed that he died of natural causes. There were initial discrepancies regarding his date of birth, with records indicating two possible dates: August 20, 1974, and August 20, 1965. This variation in birth records further complicated the efforts to reach out to possible next of kin, thereby prolonging the case as unclaimed.

They are currently appealing to the public for any information that might lead to the identification of family members.
