Sign in to edit

Marta Ramirez Ramos was a woman whose body was found in a remote desert area near Sasabe, Arizona, in 2018.

Her NamUs profile was removed in or before December 2018, and the Pima County Medical Examiner later confirmed her identity. Her case number is 18-1042.

Case[]

Ramirez's body was discovered in a desert wash next to Arizona State Route 286 and near the Buenos Aires National Wildlife Refuge. The area was also a known migrant corridor. She was estimated to have died several days prior to being located and her cause of death could not be determined due to mummification.

Her fingerprints were matched back to a previous failed attempt to enter the United States during which she provided the name "Martha Ramirez Ramoz" to authorities and claimed to be from Guatemala.
