Alex Aguilar Vasquez: The September 2008 Contact Accounts
Two official entries leave the exact contact date unresolved.
Abstract
California’s Department of Justice lists Alex Aguilar Vasquez with Missing Since September 22, 2008 and repeats that date as last seen in its narrative.1 NamUs MP20268 identifies Alex Donaldo Aguilar-Vasquez with a September 1, 2008 contact field, while its narrative dates his mother’s last conversation only to September 2008.2 The reviewed entries do not explain the different days.
The Conversation and Proposed Journey
NamUs describes the mother’s conversation and places Alex at a Mexican border town spelled Reinosa Tomculipas in the entry. It says he intended to cross into California and contact her afterward, but the expected call did not come.2 The account does not supply a call record, exact day, crossing record, route, or verified arrival. The source spelling is preserved without plotting or correcting it into a documented location.
NamUs’s San Mateo location fields do not independently establish his physical presence there during the conversation.2 The California narrative names no observation site or witness.1 A proposed journey is not evidence that a crossing occurred.
Identification Details
California gives birth date July 28, 1980, black hair, brown eyes, height 5 feet 3 inches, weight 140 pounds, and alternate names Fernando Manuel Aguilar Vasquez and Donaldo Aguilar Vasquez.1 NamUs lists missing age 28, the same hair and eye colors, height 5 feet 3 inches to 5 feet 4 inches, weight 140–150 pounds, and alias Fernando Manuel Aguilar-Vasquez.2 The measurements remain attached to their sources rather than being treated as changing appearance.
The Police File
Both entries list San Mateo Police Department and phone (650) 522-7700. California prints case 091028008; NamUs prints 09-1028-008, with Date Reported October 28, 2009. NamUs Case Created is May 14, 2013; webpage Date Created is April 12, 2021.1,2 Those dates do not document later contact or explain the report interval.
Sourced Accounts and Questions
Here’s where you come in. Can you locate a dated agency statement tied to the San Mateo case that explains the September 22 date and the September 1 field?1,2 The underlying conversation or observation record could clarify what each date represents. Month-level recollection does not independently confirm either exact day.
As you compare the proposed journey with later material, can you distinguish a stated intention from a documented crossing or arrival?2 Keep the source wording, event, and remaining question in a Research File in Almost Solved. The reviewed account does not establish a completed route, another person’s responsibility, or an outcome.
Scope and Method
The underlying call, witness statement, and police file were not independently reviewed. A linked law-enforcement document could not be retrieved and supplies no claims here. No original case-specific news report was located in the focused search. Unmatched results are excluded.
