And IF he was at the airport, waiting for a flight, where did he go? If he was past TSA, a weapon is minimized to force him away from the airport. There would also be video recordings of him in the terminal waiting for the plane. We have heard nothing about that.

Details of Disappearance
Garibay Ruiz, a tourist from Hungary, arrived in Los Angeles, California on September 25, 2017 for a vacation. He was staying at the Melrose Hostel in the 600 block of north Western Avenue, and driving a rented gray 2017 Toyota RAV4 with the license plate number 7VGJ780.

He was last seen driving away from the hostel at 1:00 p.m. on October 5. That day he spoke to his wife on the phone and said he was on standby for a return flight home. He was supposed to return the rental car that day, but never did, and the vehicle has not been recovered. A photo of a similar car is posted with this case summary.

His credit card was used at a Carl's Jr. restaurant on October 6, and this is the last sign of him; he has never been heard from again. His family reported him missing on October 9, after he didn't arrive back home in Budapest.

Garibay Ruiz was born in Guanajuato, Mexico and went to college in Hungary, where he met and married his wife. He is a professor, nuclear physicist, mathematician and writer, and lived with his wife and two children. His family stated he often traveled alone. His case remains unsolved.

It actually says "Updated one time sine 2004" as do the majority of Charley Project entries. It must be when the database was started methinks. It is not specific to this case.

And I still think this is voluntary and he might have returned to Mexico.

I have seen updates like this, I do think this is specific. Let me find an example.

Yes- that is specific> I was referring to the 2004 part. That appears on almost all CP entries.
 
Do you suppose Enrique would have already returned the (RAV4) rental when he told his wife he was at the airport??? Might he have ended up with a different rental car IF he had to wait for a delayed/cancelled flight out until the next day, or would have just remained at the airport??? Hard to know but it seems he is still missing!!!!

Where are you Dr. Ruiz???

But wouldn’t the company that rental car came from what their car back and would have tracked it down?
 
Back November 28, 2019 Enrique's daughter (PG) left a comment under this mention of her father being missing made here

ETA: They write up says his car was not returned. FWIW.
Hmm. What about LoJack or other vehicle tracking devices rental companies have for retrieving their vehicles?

The MP resides in Budapest, Hungary. The MP arrived to Los Angeles in early October 2017. The MP was staying at a Hostel in the Hollywood Area. The MP checked out of his hostel and and told the PR that he was on the waiting list to board a flight back to Budapest. No one has heard from the MP since then.

From NAMUS:

Last Known Location Map

LocationLos Angeles, California 90004

Strange, the area appears residential, would that be the location of the hostel????

ETA answering my own question, that map puts us on Oxford which is not the location of the hostel.

Snipped from missing listing....
...He was staying at the Melrose Hostel in the 600 block of north Western Avenue...

Soooooo what was he doing on Oxford??? Its also not the location of the Jack in the Box or the airport....fwiw.
