New Private Investigators

Mike and Cary (562) 706-3187 / (562) 494-9981 are working hard on the investigation. Please call them at the above number. LA Sheriff Joe Purcell (626) 291-4740 is also still on the case and can also be contacted with any information.


Please help fund the search

Many friends and caring individuals have inquired about contributing to our private investigators. We appreciate any help you can give us to fund the investigation conducted by our investigators, Mike and Carey.

Michael sometimes used to use the screen name TRANEFAN1 when he talked to people via AOL Instant Messaging. Lately TRANEFAN1 has been activated online by an unknown user. We have determined that this person is not involved with Michael's disappearance. Since Michael had not used the name for so long, it simply expired, and someone else picked it up.


L.A. Sheriffs Department Involved

L.A. Sheriffs detectives uncovered a significant lead in June, 2000. They have released this sketch of a potential witness who may have been in the dormitory on the night of Michael's disappearance. Anyone with information about this person is urged to contact the Sheriffs at (323) 890-5500. Unfortunately, no information has resulted since this sketch was released.



Sheriffs, UCPD, and family have worked very hard on the investigation. Michael's computer has been extensively examined. He did not have a car at school, so we are sure he did not just drive away. All college and high school friends have been interviewed repeatedly. Michael had not had any problems or arguments with his family previous to his disappearance. Nothing happened that was out of the ordinary--the night before he disappeared we had been talking together and arranging for him to come home for Christmas. Michael had no hidden alternative lifestyle. We have checked into possible cult connections, and we have even spoken to several psychics. The campus and surrounding areas were extensively searched, both by humans and by dogs. Hospitals have been checked and flyers sent out and posted in thousands of places . Unfortunately, no results yet.

Michael was featured on MSNBC in a program called Missing Persons. It first aired on Friday, September 28 at 8:00 p.m. and was repeated at least twice. Our story has also appeared nationally on "Extra," "National Enquirer TV," and "Primer Impacto." (A program on Univision, a Spanish language network)


Our efforts with publicity, including TV programs, mass mailings of flyers,bumper stickers, and e-mails have generated some sightings and calls to the authorities from people with suggestions and ideas. The Sheriffs investigation is ongoing and they say there is still a lot to do.

Michael Negrete Search Fund Established

Note to Michael from Mom

Michael: We love you, we miss you terribly, and we think about you constantly. Our greatest wish is for you to contact us and let us know that you are all right. We will never give up looking for you.


How You Can Help

Please donate to our search fund.
Tell people about this website.
Do not hold back anything if you are contacted and asked questions by Mike and Carey.

Write your congressmen and senators urging them to support Kristen's Act (HR 2780). This is a piece of federal legislation to expand resources to help locate missing young people. The bill will authorize the Attorney General to provide grants to organizations and allow them to help locate people between 18 and 21 years of age at the time of their disappearance. Currently several organizations will not register Michael, because he had already turned 18 a few months before he disappeared. This legislation is urgently needed. Please write!
Please click on the banner at the top of this home page. Each time you click on a banner, our banner appears on that site, so others may be able to find out about this site.

If you know anyone in the TV news business, please tell him/her the story of Michael and ask how it can be publicized on national news programs and news magazines.

Pray that Michael or someone who knows of Michael contacts his family.
Contact us at mnegrete99@yahoo.com with any more search suggestions.
Forward Mary's chain e-mail to everyone that you know. Request Mary's letter at mnegrete99@yahoo.com or click on one of the links above.
