Graciela, who also goes by Gracie and Chela, owns and operates Careyes Beauty Salon out of her home on Hurlburt Avenue. Around 7 p.m. that night, Graciela’s son had two missed calls from her but told family when he tried to call her back, his calls went to voicemail, which family members said was a red flag. Graciela’s phone remained off and her social media went quiet. Her car was still at home and everything inside seemed to be in place. Graciela’s family reported her missing on Monday, November 11. Detectives are treating Graciela’s disappearance as suspicious, Hermiston Police Chief Jason Edmiston told Dateline. He added there are no confirmed details available about exactly where or when Garcia was last seen and no updates. Graciela is described as being 5 feet, 4 inches tall and weighing 140 lbs.

Around 7 p.m. that evening, the boy got a text from his mother and noticed he also had two missed calls — but when he tried to phone back, he immediately got her voicemail.
“That was a huge red flag,” the boy’s older sister, Gabriela Bautista, told Dateline months after Garcia went missing. “She always had her phone on and had been in constant contact with my brother that night. They were supposed to meet. That was the plan. She wouldn’t have just turned her phone off and disappeared.”
The concerned boy’s older siblings went to their mother’s home, where they found her vehicle, purse, clothing, and other personal items and noted nothing seemed out of the ordinary.
“That was odd, too,” Bautista told Dateline of Garcia, who ran a beauty salon out of the residence. “All her jewelry was there. In one place. Whenever she would go out, she would put on her rings. Things would be scattered, like her clothes, but it was all in place. And nothing was missing.”
[...]
According to reports, detectives were never able to locate several of Garcia’s key possessions: her cell phone, ID, and passport. The investigation determined Garcia’s phone pinged for the last time in Washington shortly after midnight the night she vanished.
In July 2020, Hermiston Police Chief Jason Edmiston said in a statement that Garcia’s current husband, Sanchez, “has been cooperative throughout this investigation.”
“He has consented to a search of his home and other property under his control, been interviewed on more than one occasion, provided DNA samples, etc.,” the chief said. “He was under no legal obligation to do any of those things, and his cooperation was not compelled in any manner.”
