Melissa Casias was not a "scientist", she worked as an administrative assistant at Los Alamos National Laboratory, a major U.S. nuclear research facility. Her husband also worked there. Melissa vanished on June 26, 2025. She was last seen walking along a state highway. An extensive search failed to find Melissa.
