Looking for updates... crickets. This needs some new professional eyes/brains on it, and/or the person who knows what happened isn't coming forward.

If we assume misadventure and they really and truly checked everywhere, where could she be?

- What are the chances she fell into a dumpster and couldn't get out, and the dumpster was emptied soon after?

- Could she have gotten into the trunk of the open car she was crying next to, and the person didn't notice her until too late, by which time this person was so scared of getting implicated in her death that they disposed of her body elsewhere?
 
Have you seen Prisma Reyes?



Texas mother Prisma Reyes was reported missing in 2019 after she hadn't picked up her son. Evidence suggests she was having one of her worst days.





NewsNation) — Detectives searching for Prisma Reyes have plenty of evidence about her last day in Dallas, but the 26-year-old mother remains missing after what appears to have been one of her worst days.

It was Reye’s only child, Dominick, who set the search for Reyes in motion. On Apr. 17, 2019, the six-year-old boy’s babysitter alerted police in Mesquite, Texas, that Reyes was late picking up her son.

“That was a little out of the ordinary for Prisma,” said Sgt. Dustan Barrett.
 
With a newer case here on WS, Heidi Planck, I'm looking at another angle here. In that case LE believes something happened to Heidi in a condo complex and her body was put down a garbage chute. Could we have a similar case here?
Im thinking... Something happened in the building or garage. I originally thought maybe she was in an elevator shaft... But how would she get there and likely the smell of decomposition would alert others. How did they get her out that building?
 
I didn’t realize that Prisma worked as a dancer. She could have customers that placed her in danger.
What if one of those customers happened to go to the E-bar Tex-Mex restaurant in the three hours after Prisma's ex left? The customer could've noticed when the bartender stopped serving Prisma (since she was reportedly upset), so he knew she'd be drunk and decided to follow her.

If this customer followed Prisma to her ex's apartment complex and approached her there, maybe she didn't feel threatened at first because she recognized him.

I would hope, though, that in the four years since the disappearance, the police would've noticed footage of anyone following Prisma out of the bar, or of anyone else that doesn't live at the apartment complex.
 
The police were probably able to exclude everyone that did not know that Prisma was in the building. She seemingly went there unplanned and wasn't being followed on her way from the bar. Within 10 minutes of arriving, her call activity stopped. IMO, if she didn't leave on her own, somebody from the building is likely involved. They could have taken her to an apartment and/or got her out in a vehicle.

There have been instances of accidents and no smells...but let's think more positively! She had amnesia or a mental breakdown and is living unhoused somewhere?

Are there cases of amnesia after drinking/being drugged?
 
I hope that they investigated (excluding her step dad and her child’s father) all the men in her life. Find out who the grey car belonged to! Then question the nanny again. Could she have had a stalker? This looks like an Occam’s razor type of thing and I am upset it has taken so many years. Poor Prisma and her family.
 
I've changed my thinking on this case, even though
no-one ever clarified the situation as regards if there
are internal rubbish chutes in the hallways of the
apartment building. Taking into account the following
information which was viewable when I posted back
two years ago, regarding that apartment building
(the Olympic On Ross);
TX - TX - Prisma Denisse Peralta Reyes, 26, did not pick up her child, Mesquite, 17 Apr 2019 #3
as resident reviewers note from 07/15/2016 states;
..."The parking garage is unsafe; you can't see
around the corner when cars are coming around.
Everyday, I see someone almost hitting another car
coming around those corners."

I came to the view that Ms Prisma Reyes may or
may not have gone up to her ex-boyfriends
apartment and banged on the door (he is known to
have not been there); regardless I believe she walked
on the vehicle parking access levels of that building
(possibly after having exited from a hallway level
through an exit doorway giving onto those levels) &
whilst walking on those driveways I think she got
accidently run over and killed by a residents vehicle.

That unknown resident probably did not wish to risk
being convicted of a crime, so immediately placed
and hid her in the interior of the vehicle (trunk?) and
drove back and reparked their vehicle in their parking
space. Then later, in the dead of night when there was
less chance of anyone seeing that person, that person
then drove that vehicle to where the building rubbish
bins are located and moved her body into one of those
(possibly big lidded tippable plastic or metal dumpsters),
which explains why her phone apparently continued
to ping in that area (and possibly one ping nearby,
if the following day pickup rubbish disposal truck
drove afterwards onwards to a nearby place without
compacting the trash and then opened it's trash
storage top and emptied and compacted more trash
onto the apartment rubbish she was enveloped within).
So her remains, as has been suggested previously in
this thread, are at whatever trash land site that
those trucks empty the buildings garbage at... a
site that no-one has ever identified in this thread,
as far as I am aware.

She took the elevator up and was seen crying on the top garage floor by a witness, so I don't see her using the driveways. She was also on her phone until her call activity stopped about 10 minutes after arriving. One of the people she called stated that she was asking for her bf's apt number. Her phone never pinged outside of the building again. We don't know if and for how long her phone stayed on after she stopped calling.
 
I would imagine that a vehicle striking or running over a person with such force as to kill them would leave behind some sort of traceable evidence—blood, skid marks, vehicle damage, property or belongings strewn about, etc. As far as we know, nothing like that was found.

But honestly, at this point over four years later, this theory is just as good as any.

Your comment is passing strange, as in a video
you cited here;
TX - TX - Prisma Denisse Peralta Reyes, 26, did not pick up her child, Mesquite, 17 Apr 2019 #3
at about timestamp 02:00, we see Ms Reyes
specifically walking on those driveways, where
the vehicles drive.

In your post here;
TX - TX - Prisma Denisse Peralta Reyes, 26, did not pick up her child, Mesquite, 17 Apr 2019 #3
you stated and asserted;
"The non-resident parking was on the top floor,
which doesn't mean that the residents couldn't
park there. She must have had a reason why
she went to the roof
.
"

A person on this forum (excuse me if for once
I don't cite a link) made the comment that 'the
simplest explanation is the most likely'. While I
don't hold to that view for everything, it strikes
me that it applies here - that is, Ms Reyes knew
or did not know or had forgotten what apartment
her ex-boyfriend lived, tried to find him by going
and knocking on the level's door(s) where she
thought he would be and when that failed, simply
went to the parking levels, roof and lower, in
the hope she could find his car
(with perhaps
the added hope that if she found it, she may
then have an indicator from it's parking space
as to what apartment he may be inside).
We know however, that he and his car were not
then on the property.

We know she was seen sitting down next to a car
when she was crying. Why? Upset.. or maybe
dizzy? Regardless, she walked about those
driveways and I don't see any reason why she
wouldn't have utilized them (after not finding
her ex-boyfriend's car) with the intention to
walk down to street level, back to her car.

The theory is still there - she got accidently
run over by a vehicle, although I'll modify
what I said previously - it could have been a
residents or a non-resident's vehicle, and
further, given her having been seen sitting
down (dizzy?), maybe she passed out on the
walk where vehicles drive, making it even
easier for a driver not to have seen her and
to have accidently driven over and killed her,
to then quickly conceal her body in that
vehicle and then park on the property until
the dark hours allowed them to deposit her
body ...somewhere. The apartment rubbish
bins? Could be.

I assume you monitor the official Prisma Reyes
Facebook pages, so if you ever get a chance,
maybe ask them to clarify their assertion,
as noted in your May 20, 2021 post;

A comment from the admin of the

fb page:
"Her phone also pinned somewhere a little bit
further away that will get into when we do the
information drop"
.
Why did they make that assertion, (never
retracted) which appears to be on the face of
it inconsistent with what you have reported the
police say - 'Her phone pinged only in the
apartments'. ??

After Prisma was seen on video walking away from the elevator near the garage entrance, she took another elevator to the top floor. There was a witness with her in the elevator. Only a few minutes later she called a guy she mistook for her ex and asked about the apt. IMO not enough time had passed for her to have been wandering around on multiple floors. It's also unclear when she was seen crying on the top floor next to a silver car. In her last call she appeared confused and was unable to report her location.
I think the info about the possible phone ping further away refers to her movement after she left the E-bar and started traveling in the direction of her home, before turning back towards her ex's building.
 
In the video report cited in the previous two posts,
Det. Barrett states after about timestamp 01:50;
..."camera on this side pointing down this ramp,"
{Det. Barrett indicates vehicle ramp in frame}
"but she walks underneath it"...{interviewer partly
says} ..."then she just disappears off the face of
the earth
", {Det. Barrett appears to reply} "Yes".

@indicolite22
Given that those words I have quoted above seem to
indicate that the video frames shown about timestamp
02:00 were in fact the last time she was seen and given
that those video frames show her walking in the area
vehicles drive in, what facts are you aware of that
preclude her having been run over by a car? Can you
say factually what is on the unseen (other) side of the
ramp that she apparently 'walks underneath'?

In the video, the detective states that there was a camera pointing down the vehicle ramp. If she walked up or down the ramp, she would have been caught on camera. It's unclear to me when in the timeline that last video of her was taken and on which garage floor. Was it after the phone calls stopped? It is possible that she entered the residential part from the garage on that floor.

From another last year's article (Mystery of missing mom haunts cop 3 years on - as he reveals chilling details):
"Witnesses told police they saw Reyes get out of the elevator on either the fourth of fifth floor, according to Barrett. She was also seen walking on both floors of the building's parking garage."

So perhaps the last video of her was taken on the fourth floor?

From the article:
"A security camera outside of the apartment block captured the last known sighting of Reyes.
In the strange clip, Reyes is seen pacing in front of an elevator and talking on her cellphone phone for several minutes.
Barrett said witnesses told investigators she appeared to be intoxicated and crying.
She called multiple people, a variation of friends and family, expressing that she was upset about "something".
Barrett said investigators are aware of what that something was, though declined to go into specifics."

I don't remember what that "something" was and that LE knew but refused to release it. Related to a POI?

Then this in the article:
"Three years later, police still do not know if Reyes ever left the apartment building, because several exits of the parking lot were not covered by surveillance video."

So she could have exited the building entirely and whatever happened did not occur in the parking garage or apartments? Making any speculation about her on the video moot as it is no indicator of what happened to her?
 
JnRyan, immediately previous post, said:
From the article:
"A security camera outside of the apartment
block captured the last known sighting of Reyes."

That 'article' was in the 'The Sun', a British Tabloid
newspaper not known for accuracy or truthfullness;

indicolite22 previous several posts asserts;
"It's unclear to me when in the timeline that
last video of her was taken"...

Well it's clear to me, because I cited the actual
video report
by WFAA, a Texas television station
serving the Dallas–Fort Worth area and affiliated
to the American Broadcasting Corporation, in
which Mesquite Detective Barrett
'walks us through
the videos', and we see and hear therein;
Code:
https://youtu.be/SbMjZk5bp1E
Det. Barrett stating after about timestamp 01:50;
..."camera on this side pointing down this ramp,"
{Det. Barrett indicates vehicle ramp in frame}
"but she walks underneath it"...{interviewer goes on
to say} ..."then she just disappears off the face of
the earth
", {Det. Barrett makes the reply}, "Yes".

Therefore (unless you want to make the claim
that WFAA falsely edited or misrepresented Det.
Barrett's words) the BEST, up-to-date information
we have to work with is that she was LAST SEEN
walking in that shown video, in that area where
vehicles drive
, walking underneath a vehicle ramp,
(and equivocating about how 'she wasn't seen walking
up or down a specific ramp' fails to acknowledge the
BEST, up-to-date information we have, that she was
LAST SEEN in that area where vehicles drive).

Yes, it is technically possible that she left the building on her own with her phone deactivated. How probable is it though? Why would she leave the jeep behind? She also left her gun in the jeep. IMO, the way she parked indicated a quick stop. If her ex was home, what was her plan? Did she go there to pick up something?
The police won't say what she was upset about, but apparently several people knew. I'm not sure she would be discussing relationship issues regarding her ex with three male acquaintances from her last calls. Maybe it was about the road rage incident? Was she also crying while still at the bar?
