Summary based on the NamUs case record (MP31095) and 2 other sources
Gilberto Jurado, a 27-year-old man, was last seen on April 7, 1989, in West Covina, California. Just the day before his disappearance, Jurado had quit his job and had recently broken up with his girlfriend. His car was found abandoned the day after he went missing, in a new home construction area in Yorba Linda, near Chino Hills State Park. Since then, there has been no trace of Jurado, and his whereabouts remain unknown.

The circumstances surrounding Jurado’s disappearance are still unclear, and there has been no significant progress in the investigation. Despite the discovery of his vehicle, no further clues have emerged, making it a cold case. Authorities continue to search for answers and encourage anyone with information to come forward.
