Unsolved Mystery: The Disappearance of Meredith Ann Medina

MIDWEST CITY, Oklahoma — The case of Meredith Ann Medina, a 16-year-old girl who vanished on February 14, 1989, remains an unresolved mystery decades later. Despite ongoing interest from family members, community advocates, and cold case investigators, there has been no definitive resolution or public breakthrough in the search for Meredith or answers about what happened to her.

Meredith was last seen at her family’s residence in Midwest City, Oklahoma, on Valentine’s Day in 1989. Authorities list her as an endangered runaway, though the circumstances of her disappearance have left unanswered questions among her family and those following the case.

At the time of her disappearance, Meredith was described as a Hispanic female with brown hair and brown eyes. She had a noticeable scar on the left side of her forehead, pierced ears, and may wear eyeglasses. Law enforcement agencies believe she left her home on that day — but no confirmed sightings, confirmed contacts, or substantiated leads have emerged since.

The Midwest City Police Department remains the primary investigating agency and continues to accept tips or information from the public. Case files indicate that Meredith was reported missing several days after her last sighting, which is typical in runaway classifications, but the delay may have impacted early investigative opportunities.

Complicating public interest in Meredith’s disappearance is the earlier unsolved case of her stepmother, Nancy Jean Medina, who vanished in 1984 under suspicious circumstances in Oklahoma City. Nancy’s vehicle was later found stripped and abandoned, and while authorities have neither solved her disappearance nor officially linked it to Meredith’s, the coincidence of two missing family members has fueled long-standing speculation about possible connections.

Despite community outreach efforts — including postings on missing persons platforms like NamUs and the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children, which maintains Meredith’s information with a current age progression — there is no public indication that the case has been advanced by significant new evidence this year.

Current Investigation Status

There is no confirmed suspect, no known evidence that places her beyond her last known location, and no solid link to her stepmother’s disappearance — though some individuals and advocacy groups have speculated on possible connections.

If you have information that might help investigators or to view official details, you can contact the Midwest City Police Department (405) 739-1388 or the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children with Meredith Ann Medina’s case reference.

The Meredith Ann Medina case remains classified as open and active.

Law enforcement agencies maintain her entry in national missing persons databases.

Authorities continue to seek tips, traces, or sightings that could finally lead to answers.

On February 14, 1989, 16-year-old Meredith Ann Medina went missing from Midwest City, Oklahoma.

She was reportedly last seen at her family’s residence. Authorities at the time believed Meredith was a runaway. It’s unclear if her case is still being actively investigated to this day and if any movement has occurred over the years on her Social Security number to prove authorities’ runaway theory.

Strangely enough, her stepmother, Nancy Jean Medina, vanished from Oklahoma City, Oklahoma on August 3, 1984 – four and a half years before Meredith went missing after a messy divorce. It’s not clear if the two cases are connected.

Now 37 years later, Meredith’s case remains unsolved.

Meredith was 16 at the time of her disappearance; if alive today, she would be 53. She is described as a Hispanic female standing 5’3”, weighing 110 lbs, with brown hair & eyes. She has a scar on the left side of her forehead and goes by the nicknames: Mere and Ann. Meredith is listed in NamUs under #MP6388.

If you have any information about the disappearance of Meredith Medina, please contact the Midwest City Police Department at (405) 739-1388 and reference case 8901761, and if you have any information on the disappearance of Nancy Jean Medina, please contact the Oklahoma City Police Department at (405) 232-5311.
