Ephrata police are still searching for a suspect nearly 40 years after Adriana Bejarano went missing at age 15. The case remains an unresolved cold case, and the search continues today.
Bejarano’s disappearance has stayed open for decades because investigators have not identified a suspect. The source does not provide additional details about where she went missing, and that absence has left the case anchored to one unanswered fact: a 15-year-old disappeared about 40 years ago, and police in Ephrata are still trying to close it.
That is what makes the case matter now. Cold cases do not fade just because time passes, and the continued search shows the investigation has not been set aside. The lack of any named suspect or further public detail also limits what can be said beyond the basic, troubling outline of the disappearance.
For Bejarano’s family and for investigators, the story is unchanged in the most important way: the case is still open, and Ephrata police are still looking for the person tied to it. After nearly four decades, that is the next fact that counts.
