The Santa Rosa Police Department, in a continuation of their efforts to address longstanding missing persons cases, has initiated the latest phase of their "Missing Person Monday" campaign. The department's social media campaign, as highlighted in a recent Facebook post, seeks to bring renewed attention to adult cold cases, leveraging the power of the community to generate leads and provide closure to families.
Since its inception in January 2024, the initiative has achieved remarkable success. According to the Facebook update from the Santa Rosa Police Department, the first run of the campaign swiftly identified one individual and concluded with five cases resolved, including one dating back to 2005. The second wave came in August of 2024 and resulted in three more cases being closed.
The third edition, launched in early August of 2025, added another five resolved cases to the tally. This mounting success underscores the value of public engagement in law enforcement efforts, with 13 cold cases resolved across the first three campaigns.
In their most recent communication, the Santa Rosa Police encouraged the public to continue supporting the initiative. "With our fourth Missing Person Monday campaign, we have hope that with your help, we can resolve more cases," the department stated in their post. They call upon anyone with knowledge of the immediate whereabouts of any featured individuals to come forward and advise them to contact local law enforcement or, within Santa Rosa, call 707-528-5222. Tips related to the cases can be directed to the SRPD Violent Crimes Investigations Team at 707-543-3590.
