According to officials, Elizalde may still be in the Dallas, Cedar Hill or Balch Springs area.

[...]
At the time there was nothing showing that she had been abducted or that her life was in danger," said Det. Ryan Dalby, Dallas Police Missing Persons.

There was no Amber Alert triggered at the time. But Dalby has picked up the case, trying again with fresh eyes.

"Re-researching everything. Going through all the social media I can find, just trying to find a lead that can get us to closure for the family," he said.

The new billboards will be up 30 days. Clear Channel Outdoor America partnered with the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children and Texas Center for Missing Persons. The billboards shows her last photo side by side with how she might look today as a young woman about to be 21.

Maria was born on May 11, 2000. She was taken by her paternal grandparents as a baby and didn't see her mother, Kathleen Rodriguez, for years. She spent most of her life in Mexico but returned to her mother's care approximately a year prior to her disappearance after she was allegedly sexually abused by a relative. She would sometimes "act out", possibly due to the trauma she had endured, and attempted to run away on one occasion, although she returned home after several hours. Kathleen describes her as a very naive, trusting individual.
