Details of Disappearance
Trejo was last seen in Las Cruces, New Mexico on April 8, 1986. He was involved in gang activity at the time of his disappearance and was on juvenile probation for a criminal offense. On the day of his disappearance, his family took him to see his probation officer on Solano Drive, south of Apodaca Park. Afterwards, Trejo asked his mother to drop him off at a friend's home at Dona Ana Apartments. Trejo's mother expected him to return to their own residence on Tornillo Street that evening, but he never did. When questioned by police, Trejo's friend stated the two of them had gone to a park and Trejo went to the toilets and did not come back. He has never been heard from again.
After his disappearance, Trejo's family received anonymous telephone calls telling them he had been murdered. His mother suspects his friends knew more about his disappearance than they disclosed. One of Trejo's friends committed suicide after his disappearance and another was murdered. A third friend has left the Las Cruces area.
Foul play is suspected in Trejo's disappearance, but little evidence is available in his case.
