More than 15 months after she disappeared, the case of Ella Mae Begay is unsolved. Her son and an attorney aren't sure authorities are doing enough.
Gerald Begay still texts his mom Ella Mae Begay on her birthday, even as the mystery surrounding her disappearance persists.
“Offering this reward is a tool we have to further publicize the case with hopes people with any information come forward and share it,” said Kevin Smith, an FBI spokesperson in Phoenix. “No piece of information is too small.” Gomez has made a name for herself providing pro bono work for Indigenous families who are missing a loved one. Her work in these types of missing cases has grown and now she represents 18 families, adding on to other non-MMIWR cases at her practice in Albuquerque.
In Jamie Yazzie’s case, Gomez made the request, and it took five months for reward money to be offered. In Ella Mae's case, it’s taken 10 months after the request for reward money. Warren had recently finished a four-month prayer walk, starting from her aunt Ella Mae’s home in Sweetwater to Washington, D.C., to bring awareness to the case. While in Washington, she met with Secretary of Interior Deb Haaland. Gerald flew in to meet his cousin and attend the meetings.
