Sonora Opens Forensic Tests After Ceci Flores Reports Finding Her Son's Remains

DNA results are expected in about two weeks.

Overview

  • Citing a court-authorized search Tuesday at kilometer 46 on Carretera 26 near Hermosillo, Sonora prosecutors recovered bone fragments and a piece of clothing and transferred the evidence to central labs.
  • Ceci Flores said she believes the remains are her son Marco Antonio because they were found with the shirt he wore in 2019 and at a site flagged by the official investigation.
  • The Fiscalía says identity is not confirmed, and genetic and forensic anthropology tests will take roughly two weeks before results are released.
  • Flores and local reports described scattered bones rather than a full body, a pattern consistent with time and animals disturbing remains in the desert.
  • The founder of Madres Buscadoras de Sonora said she will keep searching for another missing son, underscoring how family-led groups often carry searches when formal responses lag.
