Audio file: Este video muestra a la soldado Vanessa Guillén antes de su desaparición / Noticias Telemundo
Audio duration: 00:03:28
[00:01]
Host: Telemundo News had exclusively what could be the last images of Vanessa Guillén before disappearing without a trace. The young soldier was at a Mexican restaurant in the Fort Hood area of Texas, near the military base where she disappeared 52 days ago. Francisco Fajardo has the report.
Reporter: These images that Telemundo News obtained exclusively show one of the last times Vanessa Guillén was seen. The recording is from April 15, a week before her disappearance at the Fort Hood base in Texas, the camera clock strikes 2:16 in the afternoon, a white pickup appears, is the Taqueria Mexico in Killeen, Texas, Vanessa enters, seems discouraged, recharges at her elbow, she looks anxious, walks from right to left and keeps rubbing her cell phone, so she ends up sitting by her command.
Interviewee #1: The girl arrives to raise the order, she comes alone. The girls who work up here say that they did see her here often.
[01:06]
Reporter: It’s been 3 minutes and the business clerk finally shows up, but she’s still distracted, always with her eyes on her phone, she seems to be texting. She paid in total $21.99, a usual amount here for more than one person.
Interviewee #2: It’s like a plate of food and tacos, like for two people.
Reporter: Vanessa was wearing gray trousers and a black sweatshirt, with food in her hand, she leaves and climbs into the Jeep van, after more than 2 minutes inside, and finally leaves.
Interviewee #1: This is the copy of her bill, there’s her name.
Reporter: The owner claims that the transaction with the card brought researchers to his business to ask for the video that Telemundo News obtained exclusively.
Interviewee #1: We told them that it was ready because they wanted to come and see it but they didn’t come.
Reporter: The taqueria is located very close to one of the entrances to the military base in Fort Hood, Texas, from where Vanessa disappeared just 52 days ago and where we have only been told that there is an ongoing investigation. Although the recording she appears alone, in the restaurant they say that on other occasions she came to eat accompanied by others.
And where is Vanessa? It is the question that is heard and that resonates here at the protest outside the military base. These are 52 days of anguish, despair and insomnia for not knowing about this young woman. Her mother is with us right now live. Ma'am, one more night you don’t know about Vanessa.
[02:30]
Gloria: That’s right, with tonight it’s exactly 52 days that my daughter’s been missing. First of all, I want to thank all these people for coming with me, that I feel supported, but first to my father God, that we’ve come all this way for him, that we won’t rest until they give me the girl because they have her and they have to give her to me. I blame them because they are responsible for the girl, it was their responsibility to take care of her, protect her and they didn’t.
Reporter: Thank you very much, thank you, and as these people are shouting right now, there is already a nationwide effort that is gathering signatures for the investigation of Vanessa’s case to reach the White House. José.
Host: Francisco Fajardo in Killeen, Texas. Thank you so much.
