A Turquoise Alert has been issued for a missing Avondale woman, the Arizona Department of Public Safety announced Tuesday.

Another article stating her vehicle has been located with no signs of Isabella. It doesn’t say much past that.

I wonder where her phone was located when tracked and where was her car located?

The missing photo is a bit blurry (to my eyes anyway). I have attached a copy with it sharpened slightly so the facial tattos, though subtle, are a little better defined for identification purposes.

Person of interest ID’d in case of missing woman from Avondale

The Avondale Police Department confirmed Thursday that it has identified a person of interest in connection with the disappearance of Isabella Comas, who sparked a Turquoise Alert earlier this week.

www.azfamily.com

'AVONDALE, AZ (AZFamily) — The Avondale Police Department confirmed Thursday that it has identified a person of interest in connection with the disappearance of Isabella Comas, who sparked a Turquoise Alert earlier this week.

Authorities said they had spoken with a “romantic partner,” who was identified as a 39-year-old man from Phoenix. Arizona’s Family is not naming him because it’s unclear if he’s facing charges in connection with her disappearance.

In a department news release, detectives also said Comas’ phone was tracked to a recycling facility in Phoenix.'

This doesn't instill me with much hope that she will be found alive and well

Court records show Rodriguez has a violent past. Paperwork states he was expelled from elementary school for an unknown reason and sporadically attended a charter school when, at 15, he was arrested with three friends for the murder of Jesus Romaldo Beltran-Escobar.

Escobar was a nursing student who had moved into an apartment near Granada and 30th Avenue. The same apartment was previously occupied by a known drug dealer, who'd been evicted for illegal activity. Documents show that on January 21, 2002, Tommy Rodriguez was with three friends and told them he wanted to "shoot someone." He was armed with an assault rifle, a weapon that was at his father's home.

Court documents show that when Jesus opened the apartment door, "Tommy began shooting." It's believed Jesus was not the intended target.

Rodriguez accepted a plea deal in the case for 2nd degree murder and served more than a dozen years behind bars.
Then, in 2020, while on parole, Rodriguez was arrested on multiple charges, including aggravated assault with a deadly weapon. It began in April, when court documents reveal Rodriguez got into an argument with his then-girlfriend.

Rodriguez was only 15 when he killed Escobar, but IMO, he should have been charged as an adult (if possible) and given a really long sentence.

The fact that he had already murdered someone before Isabella was even born is disturbing

Her phone traced to a recycling facility is extremely bothersome and unusual.

My hunch it was tossed into a recyling bin, perhaps thinking it was a regular trash can.

Yes, seems a bit of a stretch that the perp that took her would be recycling, too.

Not a laughing matter, but that made me chuckle.

At first I thought SHE was at the recylcing center, but I think it's more realistic to think it's just her phone. Which means she was, obviously, separated from her phone at some point. They should be able to tell when that happened?

Rodriguez was only 15 when he killed Escobar, but IMO, he should have been charged as an adult (if possible) and given a really long sentence.

When I initially went into his court records, the big case from 2002 (likely the murder one) had all the charge details and sentencing redacted. From what's been in the recent msm posts he was in prison 10+ years but since all the records aren't viewable in the AZ judicial system online search engine I couldn't see if he was tried as an adult or not.
