Amada Abundez: The Morning Account and the Store Reference

A dated sheriff’s bulletin adds detail to two public registry entries.

Abstract

NamUs MP36070 lists June 12, 2010, and San Juan Capistrano for Amada Abundez’s last contact.1

The Two Registry Entries

NamUs describes leaving home and being last known at Marshall’s in that city. Its Orange County Sheriff’s Department case field reads 10221014.1

California’s Department of Justice gives June 12 and the broader location Orange County, under the same case number.2 A county label and a city label do not establish separate movements.

The matching reference helps you compare the entries. Their agreement does not identify the original observer or make them independent accounts.1,2

The Dated Sheriff’s Bulletin

The sheriff’s October 8, 2015, bulletin places the home observation in the morning of June 12, then describes shopping at Marshall’s. It does not identify the observers or supply a store time.3

Its printed case number is 10-0221014; the registries print 10221014.1,2,3 Removing the hyphen does not make those digit sequences identical. This paper preserves the difference without declaring an error.

Sourced Accounts and Questions

Here’s where you come in. Can you find the dated observations supporting the bulletin’s home-to-store sequence?3

Can you establish how the printed case numbers relate, using an agency record rather than an assumed formatting correction?1,2,3

Keep the source date, its exact wording and your question together in a Research File in Almost Solved. That keeps a proposed clarification separate from a documented event.

Scope and Method

Original observations and the agency’s case-number history were not reviewed. This study does not establish a present outcome.

Prepared with AI assistance. Sources and references checked against the cited public materials. This paper is an original synthesis of the identified public sources; it does not reproduce article bodies, transcripts, or an investigative file.
