BEXAR COUNTY, Texas — A new development in the case of a woman whose body was found dumped and burned in south Bexar County.
Nearly five years after the death of Meagan Gonzales, her family is hoping a sketch of a man can provide them some answers.
“That would be great, great for me, and the family to start getting answers,” said Eddie Gonzales, Father of Meagan Gonzales.
“She was driving, she saw it, recognized my daughter's truck coming out from Hermine Blvd, and she just looked at it, and he made a right turn,” said Gonzales.
Gonzales says his wife was able to catch up to the truck.
"She waved at him and stopped him. He stopped and rolled the window down on the passenger side, and just stared. My wife asked him, whose truck is that you're driving?” said Gonzales.
Gonzales wife says the man made an inappropriate gesture and drove off. Meagan's truck was eventually found a week after her body was discovered.
The truck was abandoned at an apartment complex off 410 and Bandera Road. Gonzales says investigators seized the truck and are still in possession of the truck.
According to Gonzales, he's tried to work with several investigators to create a sketch, but one was never created. Gonzales says he then reached out to the nonprofit Search & Support San Antonio.
"It was determined that a forensic sketch artist would come in handy," said Lori Whitmire, Intake Case Manager, Search & Support San Antonio.
The nonprofit connected the family with Laura Donato, a certified forensic sketch artist with the Italian Missing Children's Institute.
"Through her ability to speak to Rosa, ask questions, to be compassionate. She was able to help Rosa, come up with a sketch that matched the young man, that she had seen," said Whitmire.
The man in the sketch is not a suspect or a person of interest, but the family believes he can provide information in the case.
"We just want to talk to him, and get some answers from him. If he knew anything about what happened to my daughter in a way, where was he going?" said Eddie Gonzales.
If you recognize the man in the sketch your urged to contact the Bexar County Sheriff's Office at 210-335-6070, San Antonio Crime Stoppers at 224-STOP, or Search & Support San Antonio.
