#StillMissing Madelyn Lingenfelter, 19, was reported missing in Reno, NV, Wednesday, September 19.
10/19/18
RENO, Nev. (KOLO) - Investigators continue looking for leads regarding a missing woman whose car was found along the Mount Rose Highway.
Reno Police say 19-year-old Madelyn Lingenfelter was reported missing in Reno Wednesday, September 19, 2018.
That afternoon, a manager at the Tannenbaum event center along the highway saw her car, without knowing about the missing person case. That manager saw a person, now believed to be Lingenfelter, in the car's passenger seat at that time, but when the manager stepped back outside a few hours later, the car appeared to be empty. When deputies were called to the car September 21 by her family, which had pinged her cell phone to that area, they said it had apparently been parked there since the Wednesday sighting.
Lingenfelter is 5'1 and 110 pounds. She has brown hair and hazel eyes. The car is a 2004 Gold Toyota Prius with NV license plate 314 F12. It has been towed from the scene; detectives found nothing in it that would indicate anything about her whereabouts.
The Washoe County Sheriff's Office used the RAVEN helicopter with heat-detecting equipment and dogs throughout the area as part of the search. Volunteers spent hundreds of hours scouring the area. There has been no sign of her since the search began, and three days after the car was found, the Sheriff's Office said while the case is still open and active, there is no active search.
Anyone having information on this case, or who saw Lingenfelter or the car the afternoon of September 19 in the Mount Rose Highway area, is asked to contact Reno Police at 334-2677 or 321-8372, the Sheriff's Office at 775-328-3001 or Secret Witness at 775-322-4900, or you can text a tip to 847411 (TIP 411) keyword - SW.

LAS VEGAS - The search for an elderly woman has a sad ending. The family of Jo Helen James say they are no longer searching for her because she has died.
James' daughter, La Tasca James, said a funeral home contacted her Wednesday and told her that they had the body of her 85-year-old mother.
The business says James was taken there after she died at a hospital five days before she was reported missing. According to the family, James was out and about alone somewhere when she collapsed. She was taken to the hospital, but she didn't have an I.D. on her so that is why family wasn't contacted.
James was then in the morgue as a Jane Doe.
James who recently turned 85, was last seen Aug. 16 at her apartment off East Flamingo Road.
When the family was trying to get the word out about James's disappearance, La Tasca told 8 News Now the family was extremely worried, but it wasn't uncommon for her mother to leave the complex to take walks.
Police say they made a welfare check of James' apartment, but nothing seemed suspicious at her apartment, except that she was missing.
The cause of James' death wasn't released.

#Missing Rosalia Medina, 36, Las Vegas, NV.
10/9/18
LAS VEGAS (KSNV) —
It's a situation a local family never thought they would be in; begging for their loved one’s safe return.
Emma Villarreal and Mariana Medina say their sister 36-year-old Rosalia Medina went missing last week.
They say she left behind her four children, the youngest just five-years-old.
Mariana says everything was going well for Rosalia, she was happy.
“Lately she's just been so full of life and good and then out of nowhere my mom calls and is like hey your sister is gone,” Mariana said.
The family says recent unusual bank activity off Boulder Highway have them now concerned for her safety.
They say Rosalia's debit card was used at Boulder Station and Arizona Charlies.
“A lot of ATM transactions,” Villarreal said.
Vague text messages also have them worried.
One sent Monday asked Rosalia to call them.
The response said, ‘give me an hour’ but no call.
Rosalia also goes by the name Rosie. She's 5’3 has brown curly hair and wears glasses.
The sisters hope she's found soon.
“We just want you home, that's it nothing matters nothing else that she's ok, come home,” the sisters said.

Our condolences to the loved-ones of Antonio Garcia-Armendarz, reported missing on Nov. 19, 2017.
10/4/18
A man whose body was recovered from a submerged pickup at Lahontan Reservoir in late August has been identified as a 77-year-old Sparks man, Churchill County Sheriff Ben Trotter said Thursday.
Trotter said the Washoe County Crime Lab used DNA from the man's family to identify him as Antonio Garcia-Armendarz, who was reported to Sparks Police Department as missing on Nov. 19, 2017.
"We are waiting for an official cause of death from the Washoe County Medical Examiner's Office but there is nothing suspicious in the case or the initial Sparks report," Trotter said. "The family was notified upon confirmation of the deceased's identity."
Trotter said investigators had a hunch the recovered body was that of Garcia-Armendarz, but CCSO had to wait for positive identification. Until the next report comes back, Trotter said he wouldn't comment on a cause or motive for Garcia-Armendarz's death.
Trotter said the man's decomposed body and his Toyota Tundra were recovered from Lahontan on Aug. 31. He said as the reservoir's water level began to drop during the summer, a person noticed the submerged vehicle at the end of the boat ramp on the Carson Highway side. After the Fallon Churchill Volunteer Fire Department's dive team assisted the CCSO with the removal of the truck, Trotter said investigators noted a number of scratches and dents caused by boat propellers when the pickup was submerged.
Based on the information taken from the investigation, Trotter said it appears Garcia-Armendarz backed the trailer-less vehicle down the ramp and into the water.

Expect phones across the country to be simultaneously alerted just before 1:20 p.m. on Wednesday, when federal officials conduct the first-ever test of the country’s emergency communications system with a presidential alert.
The alert will be a joint test of the Wireless Emergency Alert system and the Emergency Alert System, and commence at 1:18 p.m., according to a news release from state officials.
The countrywide test, a joint effort of the Federal Emergency Management Agency and the Federal Communications Commission, will use the same tone and vibration as tornado warning and AMBER Alert warnings.
“Users cannot opt out of receiving the (Wireless Emergency Alert) test,” notes FEMA.
The test originally had been scheduled for Sept. 20, but was postponed to Wednesday, its backup date, because of Hurrican Florence.
According to FEMA, the Wireless Emergency Alert test message will have a header that reads “Presidential Alert” and text reading: “THIS IS A TEST of the National Wireless Emergency Alert System. No action is needed.”
While the system was set up following an executive order signed in 2006 by President George W. Bush, the announcement last month that the test would be sent sparked some controversy, triggering the specter for some of President Donald Trump using the alerts the way he does Twitter. But that idea was dismissed by federal officials, who say the system has safeguards in place and is intended to notify Americans in hazardous situations including terrorism, war, or natural disasters.
“The test is intended to ensure public safety officials have the methods and systems to deliver urgent warnings and alerts to the public in times of an emergency or disaster,” said Acting Illinois Emergency Management Agency Director William Robertson. “Periodic testing is a way to access the operational readiness of the infrastructure and determine whether technological improvements are needed.”
While the Emergency Alert System has been tested before, the Wednesday test will be the first time the nationwide Wireless Emergency Alert system will be tested. This system is used to notify the public about “dangerous weather, missing children, and other regionally critical situations through alerts on cellular phones,” the release said. It would also allow most users to receive location-targeted notifications of “imminent threats to safety in their area,” officials furthered.
Cell phones that are turned on and within the range of an active cell tower are expected to receive the message. Some older phones, officials said, may not get the message.

RENO, Nev. (KOLO) - Police have found a car belonging to a woman reported missing.
Reno Police say 19-year-old Madelyn Lingenfelter was seen Wednesday, September 19, 2018 by an employee of the Tannenbaum event center along the Mount Rose Highway. The employee saw a person in the car at that time, but when the employee stepped back outside a few hours later, the person was no longer there.

Our condolences to the loved-ones of David Rathbun, missing since September, 2017.
9/18/18
LAS VEGAS (KSNV) —
In September of 2017, 62-year-old David Rathbun vanished. His home, car, and property had been sold.
Rathbun worked his entire life to retire in Las Vegas. He purchased a home in the Providence area of Las Vegas and spent his days hiking & riding his motorcycle.
After the October 1st mass shooting in Las Vegas, Rathbun's family called to check on him, but they didn’t get an answer. Instead, only text messages.
Someone responding from Rathbun's phone saying things like,
"Can we talk later? I'm a little busy."
After nearly two weeks of not hearing Rathbun's voice, his family sent police to his home and officers found his house empty.
Rathbun’s sister, Linda Rathbun, later discovered that someone sold his home for cash, for $70,000 less than what it was worth. His credit and bank cards were also still being used.
"I will never forget this, because I had to call my sister at 3:00 a.m. and tell her the house was empty, and she said to me ‘he's dead isn't he?'" Linda recalled.
The family filed a missing person’s report, which froze Rathbun’s accounts. That's when the text messages from his phone grew hostile.
The texts came from someone asking Rathbun's family to wire money, upset they'd lost access to his accounts.
"They wanted us to back off and we were just pit bulls, we would not go away," David’s daughter Natasha Rathbun said.
Natasha also says a missing person's detective told his worried family not to let their imaginations run wild.
"He didn't believe us. He's like, 'your dad's a grown man, people don't just go missing. Their houses aren't just sold, it doesn't happen, this isn't a movie,'" she said.
However, as more details unfolded it ended up being a missing person's case like something straight out of a movie.
Leading up to Rathbun’s disappearance he told his daughter Natasha about a woman he met who needed help, he called that woman "Jo".
"It was the most absurd story I ever heard. I mean, she had 10 kids and she had this form of cancer and she was living in a shed," Natasha explained.
Linda kept digging and found surveillance of a mystery man making a withdrawal from Rathbun’s bank on Boulder Highway in Las Vegas. She says she took that information to the missing person's detective and he immediately handed the case to homicide detectives.
On June of 2017, nearly nine months after Rathbun disappeared, police sent a release to the media, calling 45-year-old Jolene Hibbs and her alleged boyfriend 55-year-old Charles Ausiello persons of interest in his disappearance.
According to the release, the pair already had several felony arrest warrants for fraud, forgery, and grand larceny.
"I don't know how anyone could feel safe," Linda said. "They targeted people before my brother, we know that. And I’m sure they're targeting people now, this is what they do."
Rathbun’s family tells us three weeks after the story aired on News 3, officers received a tip from someone they described as an accomplice who helped dispose of the body.
On August 9, officers recovered Rathbun’s remains from the desert near Dolan Springs, Arizona.
Linda and Natasha Rathbun say David deserved better. They want justice.
"They're free, they are free! and my father’s dead!" Natasha said.
The family says David’s remains were reduced to mere bones and they identified him through dental records but they still haven’t been able to determine how he died.
News 3 reached out to LVMPD homicide detectives on Sept. 18 for details and more information, but they chose not to comment, saying only that it’s an ongoing investigation.
