Where is Lorraine Garcia Now? We discuss what happened to Lorraine Garcia from the Netflix true crime series Missing: Dead or Alive.
True crime shows continue to fill the schedules on streaming platforms. Relatively cheap to make and with no shortage of content, these types of shows are raising the bar by finding new formats to present but staying true to the subject matter.
Missing: Dead or Alive? from Netflix is a four-episode limited series that has taken the format and tweaked it, again, to provide viewers with a more immersive experience.
The missing people are investigated by a team of devoted officers, who care about their roles, and the viewer is very much incorporated into the narrative. There has been some speculation about the exact production details, some have found it contrived and almost scripted, but the jury is still out on that one.
This article will examine the mystery of one such case and answer the question where is Lorraine Garcia Now?
What happened to Lorraine Garcia?
Lorraine had disappeared. In the first episode of the Netflix true crime series, we meet the show’s cast, including the investigating officers, and the story of a missing older adult woman and her ex-military son that they worry may have had something to do with her disappearance.
Investigator Vicky Raines, fresh on the scene after working in the major crimes unit, is on the case and fears the worse for the missing 61-year-old Lorraine Garcia. Lorraine has been complaining to neighbors about the violent conduct of her ex-military son.
Her son Anthony has PTSD after his military service but insists he was not involved in his mother’s disappearance. The smell of bleach and tools in the house is a red flag, and Anthony has tried to sell his mother’s house illegally.
There are more strange incidents at the house, with the team finding holes in the walls and string tied around the door knobs.
Finally, Anthony is questioned and reveals that Lorraine has been admitted to the hospital for not taking her meds. Lorraine would check herself out of the hospital shortly after this.
Anthony is arrested for fraudulently trying to sell the house, and the team can now uncover what happened to Lorraine.
Was Lorraine Garcia Found, or is she still Missing?
Lorraine Garcia was found alive. The bank that Lorraine used called the police, letting them know that she phoned them looking for her bank details (as she is moving to a new home). The police tracked the number the bank gave, and when they arrived in the area, they thankfully found Lorraine alive and well.
Lorraine wanted to escape her old life and volatile son and start again. The team cannot believe that Lorraine is alive. They are stunned by this revelation.
Where is Lorraine Garcia Now?
In the series, Lorraine says, “I’ve been trying to start over, just so I can have peace… in my mind and my heart,” she goes on to say, “I don’t want to go back… I have to start taking care of me. My son, he did things to me he has never done. I don’t deserve that.” The downtrodden lady then states she doesn’t want anyone to know where she is or have any charges pressed against Anthony.
Is Lorraine Garcia Dead or Alive?
