Augustine Macias: The Simi Valley Record
A daily walk, a reported sighting and the records behind an appeal.
Abstract
California DOJ’s individual notice lists November 20, 2014 as Augustine Macias’s Date Last Seen and identifies Simi Valley Police case 1447794.1
A Familiar Walk
KABC’s December 4, 2014 report attributes a November 20 morning walk near Tapo Street and Los Angeles Avenue to authorities.2
According to that report, witnesses told family members he later walked west on Los Angeles Avenue. Their original statements were not inspected.2
The Individual Records
NamUs MP73233 lists his age at disappearance as seventy-four and repeats the November 20 contact date. Its narrative describes a daily walk from which he did not return.3
DOJ’s historical clothing description includes a blue baseball cap with a yellow S insignia. That notice describes the reported clothing then, rather than establishing what someone would wear now.1
The two official entries share police case 1447794. Matching identifiers connect records; they do not establish independent witnesses.1,3
Sourced Accounts and Questions
Here’s where you come in. Can you find the original departure account?2
Can you establish the time and source of the reported westbound sighting before drawing a route?2
Can you match a later lead to police case 1447794 before relying on a name alone?1
Keep each source, speaker, observation and record date in a Research File in Almost Solved. A reported observation and a database entry need their own context.

Later Appeals and Record Dates
In December 2014, KABC reported the continuing appeal. Its publication date is not another observation of Augustine.2
NamUs gives September 2, 2020 as the entry’s creation date and February 7, 2024 as its modification date. Those administrative dates do not establish later personal contact.3
Original witness statements, police logs and the complete investigative file were not inspected. These sources do not establish Augustine’s present location or fate.
Scope and Method
Original witness statements, police logs and investigative files were not inspected.
