TikToker mom vanished after going to Walmart and sending final cryptic text to her fiance. Now her body has been found
Minelys Zoe Rodriguez-Ramirez, 25, was last heard from on the night of October 22 when she said she was going to a Walmart in Cornelia ‘to sell someone a photo’
A TikToker who vanished after going to a Walmart store in Georgia has now been found dead, with a 24-year-old man now facing murder charges in the case.
Minelys Zoe Rodriguez-Ramirez, 25, was last heard from on the night of October 22 when she said she was going to a Walmart in Cornelia “to sell someone a photo,” her mom told Now Habersham.
The next morning, her fiance Julio Tovor woke up and realized Rodriguez-Ramirez – known as “Mimi” – had not returned home, the outlet reported.
A final, cryptic text had allegedly been sent from her cellphone to Tovor at around 9.30pm that night.
Tovor said that the message did not sound like Rodriguez-Ramirez. “I am waiting for the brother to pick him up,” it read.
“It didn’t make sense. She doesn’t talk like that,” Tovor told Now Habersham.
The 25-year-old was reported missing that day.
On Monday, Angel DeJesus Rivera-Sanches, 24, also of Cornelia, was arrested on charges of kidnapping related to Rodriguez-Ramirez’s disappearance.
The next day, one week on from her disappearance, the Georgia Bureau of Investigation and Habersham County Sheriff’s Office announced that a body had been found along a road running parallel to the Walmart.
The body is believed to be that of Rodriguez-Ramirez. An autopsy will be carried out by the GBI Medical Examiner’s Office to determine cause of death.
Now, Rivera-Sanches is facing murder charges, the GBI said in an update.
Rodriguez-Ramirez boasted 20,000 followers on TikTok, regularly posting videos on the app – including on the day she went missing.
In a video posted days before her disappearance, she spoke about her dreams of investing in businesses such as a gym clothing line or a small jewelry business.
