Gallup, New Mexico CNN  — 

Sadie Acevedo is living an endless cycle of grief.

Her sister, Anthonette Cayedito, went missing from the family home in Gallup, New Mexico, one evening in 1986 and has not been seen since then. Acevedo believes Cayedito’s disappearance may have been tied to a relative.

“I have a hole inside of my life because we don’t know where she is,” Acevedo told CNN.

Cayedito is among the nearly 200 Native American and Indigenous people listed as missing in New Mexico and the Navajo Nation.

Once into indian lands it might as well be another planet....

Culturally - They are a law and culture unto themselves, with their own systems of justice & people do disappear....

Outside law enforcement gives the reservations a wide berth.....Everyone enters at their own peril....
