Mexico Mexico - Jenny Chen, 26, Oaxaca, 11 April 2016 #1

This case really reminds me of Denise Thiem. However, learning that she was involved in anti-police protesting is very foreboding. Do you recall the case of the mass kidnapping and execution of college students by the Mexican police?Oaxaca, and many other parts of Mexico are under the dominion of cartels and like American gangs they have been known to frequently harm women as initiation. I hope they can get that footage if it's not too late.

her last message to her friends was 'I'm going hitching,'

Her husband says Chen's citizenship makes it difficult to get help from the U.S. State Department. He's been talking with US & Chinese consulates and Mexican authorities. But he gets no sense that any agency is doing anything to find her.

Two observations of the picture.

1. The picture is posed. She is not actually hitchhiking in the picture. Since she is holding the sign away from traffic. So the picture doesn’t really prove one way or the other if she was in fact hitchhiking. Though it looks like she probably was.

2. She was not alone. It was not a selfie. Somebody was with her taking the picture.

From what I can tell, her trip was going perfectly fine until she got to Oaxaca. Then she disappeared somewhere along her planned route from Oaxaca to Cancun.

Looks like the US/Mexico border? The person taking the picture could by any random person.

I think it's a toll booth, the freeways in the wealthier part of Mexico are toll roads. I think she asked whomever had stopped to give her a ride, to take a photo.

That was my first thought too. But then looking at it closer I think it looks more like a toll plaza.

I don't think anyone has posted the link yet to the "Help Find Jenny" page:

https://www.facebook.com/groups/helpfindjenny/?fref=nf

It sounds like her husband has hired an investigator and they are tracking her last known route and trying to get access to any video cameras. He has reached out to police, news agencies, consulate, etc. and is posting updates on all that...

Thank you for posting this. Reading her husband's posts are just heartbreaking.

I hope they find her

I cant imagine a more dangerous thing to do than hitchhike through mexico, even if not alone

I just get a feeling that she is missing by choice. JMO

Reinhard posted an update on a go fund me page advising that police are being asked to share video from surveillance cameras mounted on the road on which Chen left Oaxaca. -

A mexican lady posted on the community page that she had seen Jenny and she was with a man. She gave a fairly lengthy description and will be speaking to the PI.

The husband states he is raising "ransom money"??? Has there been notification that ahe is being held for ransom?

In reading the last post on her Find ME Facebook Page, it does appear she may have been trafficked.

That's probably why they are asking for surveillance cameras in that area.

I haven't read anything more about ransom money.

If that is really her weibo I'd be very concerned. On the 4th this individual said they were almost raped. Then the next day, the last post says that it only takes one bad person to ruin their life but they're trying to be positive. Poor woman may have had a premonition of her own demise.

 

[meanmaryjean]

She was scheduled to be gone until July? And if she's having trouble finding work- how was this trip a good idea? You can't find a job while you're on a four month backpacking trip in a foreign country, right?????

I'm really REALLY worried that she's in terrible danger.

&#8220;I have a meeting with the private investigation team&#8230; and they have some witnesses pointing in what direction she went,&#8221; her husband said.

He also has contacted both the U.S. and Chinese embassies in Mexico (Chen has a Chinese passport) and the Mexican authorities for assistance, but says that he has made little headway with any official government agency.

&#8220;I can&#8217;t describe my disgust at this point,&#8221; he said, about the lack of help.

Reinhard said that several locals in Mexico, including members of the Chinese Chamber of Commerce in Oaxaca, planned to help him on his search.
