-Surveillance footage from a residence in Talpa shows Melissa’s last known whereabouts: walking eastbound on NM 518 roughly an hour after she dropped off lunch to her daughter. She wore a backpack, a turquoise shirt, jeans, tennis shoes and a maroon hoodie tied around her waist.
-A family friend said he saw a blue Dodge truck following Melissa at around the same time.
-Sierra returned home from work to find the front door locked and her mother’s vehicle parked outside. She found her mother’s keys and work cell phone on the kitchen table. Inside Melissa’s office was her wallet, personal cell phone, purse, some dollar bills and a paycheck Sierra gave her to deposit at the bank.
-Melissa’s phones were reset to factory settings.
-Sierra and her father believe Melissa left voluntarily due to personal and financial struggles, Melissa’s parents, Jose and Joanne Mondragon, and sister, Trudy Najera, disagree
