Lowrey Field is a place Melinda Campos has trouble returning to.

“This is actually the second time that I’ve been here because it’s hard,” Melinda said.

But she is prepared to spend hours at the field if it means being a step closer to bringing her daughter, Zoe Campos, home.

Lowery Field was the last place Zoe was believed to have been seen. She was eighteen years old when she disappeared a year and a half ago. Her phone was pinned in a one-mile radius from the field.

“Imagine not being able to see your kid; not being able to hear their voice; not being able to see their smile,” Melinda said.

But she says she is thankful for her supporters and team of investigators, and continues to hang on to hope.

“Someone out there knows, and I need them to come up and say something,” Melinda said. “We’re not looking for you. We’re looking for Zoe.”

Investigators were able to obtain several pieces of evidence from Zoe's car.

"They found duct tape, some clothes, her phone charger was in the backseat and another man's jacket in back seat as well," said Melinda.
Through Zoe's cellphone records, police have now pieced together a picture of what may have happened after 11:30 p.m. the night Zoe went missing.

"On the night she disappeared she went to dinner with her sister, then took her sister back to the apartment, left her apartment," said Lubbock Police Detective Adam Freeman. "Went to hang out with friend, then left that apartment. Went to hang out with another individual, all prior to her supposed pick-up of her mom, at which point she disappeared."

Police have focused their investigation on one person of interest, but did not share specific information with Crime Watch Daily at this time.

"The last person who was with Zoe is still being looked at, it's part of an active investigation," said Det. Freeman.
Phone records show that Zoe's last contact was with a young man named Carlos.

"Only thing I know so far is the last call she had was with a Carlos Rodriguez, as far as what was said I don't know, they planned to meet up that night," said Zoe's sister Savannah.

A Christmas miracle happened in missing Lubbock woman Zoe Campos' case, Melinda said, when the Texas Rangers and Naval Criminal Investigative Service recently joined in the investigation of her daughter's disappearance.

Zoe, now 20 years old, went missing on Nov. 17, 2013.

"This is something that I've been waiting for, and they say they're one step closer, one step closer," said Zoe's mother, Melinda Campos, "I'm going to have to trust and give them faith."
 
A billboard for Zoe went up in January.

A new billboard with information about missing Lubbock teen Zoe Campos is now on display on Slaton highway. The sign was paid for anonymously.

"We're so blessed that this person took their wallet and paid for this," said Zoe's mother, Melinda Campos.

Zoe Campos was 18 when she was reported missing to Lubbock Police in November of 2013. According to police, someone was seen driving Zoe's car, a 1997 Lincoln town car, a few days after her disappearance.

Zoe's mom Melinda Campos has been working with investigators who say her daughter was possibly involved in a human trafficking incident.

Lubbock Police announced early Thursday afternoon that remains had been found in Clapp Park, and there was reason to believe these were human remains. Later, the Lubbock County Medical Examiner confirmed the remains were indeed human.

A private investigator for the family of Zoe Campos said volunteers had searched an area nearby in the park at one point.

“I am frantically waiting on the outcome,” Melinda Campos, Zoe’s mom, said in a brief written statement for EverythingLubbock.com, “I pray that it’s not my babygirl. But at the same time someone will get answers. I believe every parent of a missing child hates situations like this, but prays for answers.”

Wow. Unexpected, sad, and frankly surprising. Really hope that if this is Zoe, her family can finally get some answers.
 
Praying for the family and the families of the other people missing from this area

Was her car EVER processed? What about the male jacket found with her car? Surely that had DNA? I don't understand the lack of LE on this case. Praying for Zoe and resolution soon.
 
Isn't this the same place Mark Anthony was missing from? I think the family had the same issues with LE. Frustrating but I guess LE can't really discuss the open case so we don't what they are looking at.

I didnt follow his case but Google search shows yes same area and I found an article where his was eventually reevaluated and found evidence of homicide.

True we don't know the extent of LE and their case evidence but given the jacket, car, etc seems that should have provided details if handled as a missing person rather than a runaway, which seems more likely but IMO.
 
I think Meagan Hembree is also missing from the same area and a few others.

I can't find any updates on the body that was found at Clapp Park. Does anyone have an update? Surely, body has been ID'd by now.
