Missing In Two Minutes: The Baffling Disappearance Of Janet Castrejon

 Rustler Park sits high in the Chiricahua Mountains in southern Arizona.

Campsites belonging to the park are scattered along a number of roads, sectioned off from the meadows to avoid damaging plants and fragile soils. Paths from these campgrounds lead into the Chiricahua Wilderness, a national forest full of ponderosa pine and swarming with wildlife. Large animals, like black bears, are often spotted there.

In the early afternoon of Father’s Day, 2015, three members of the Castrejon family arrived and set up camp. Lydia and Eduardo Castrejon had driven up the mountain with their 44-year-old daughter, Janet. Eduardo made lunch for his family at around 4pm.

But within only a few hours, Janet Castrejon would be missing. She would disappear in what seemed like a flash. 

And since that summer evening on the 18th of June, 2015, Janet was never seen alive again.
