The Arizona Attorney General’s Office says Zuraida “Bee Bee” Lewis reportedly left her Oro Valley residence to report to work at the Hilton Tucson El Conquistador Hotel and Resort Friday morning, January 28, 2005.

She never arrived for her shift.

Coworkers later noticed her vehicle in the hotel parking lot, though not in her usual space, prompting concern for her whereabouts.

Lewis was subsequently reported missing, and an investigation into her disappearance started.

Her body was found the following morning by hunters in a desert area near Willow Springs Road and State Highway 77 in Pinal County.

Any detail, no matter how small, may help lead to a resolution in this case.”
