Joseph, Summer, Gianni, and Joseph Mateo McStay are still missing after almost 20 months. Countless leads have been exhausted without a single confirmed sighting. NOT ONE… How does a family of four simply vanish and three government agencies, family, friends, the media, and everyday goers not have come across this family of four?
We want to remind everyone that this loving family is still missing. We have not given up hope for a positive outcome in this case, a happy ending if you will.
Please continue to remember this family in your prayers and tell your friends, co-workers, or whoever will listen, that this family still missing and thousands of everyday people trying to make sure that they are found safe.

My take? Based on the following:
1. Summer’s vanity (evidenced by her repeatedly reinventing herself with new names and lying about her true age)
2. Summer’s possessiveness (evidenced by her need to keep others at arm’s length of her tight little family circle)
Summer McStay’s many fictions about her life before Joseph finally caught up to her in some form or another. Rather than come clean, she made up some glamorous tale about a threat so urgent that Joseph would agree that they all needed to disappear for their own protection. She had obviously pre-planned this based on the computer searches regarding Mexico. But it was probably sold to Joseph as an emergency situation in which the only way they would all be “safe” would be for them to disappear.
I hope that Joseph will read or see something that will help him realize what’s happened. He needs to see that Summer has been lying to him for a long time. It’s unfortunate that his health problems probably make him more reliant on her and, therefore, easier for her to manipulate. I don’t mean to imply that she is evil or a terrible person, but she has it seems she has re-written her own biography and is relentless in her effort to hold onto that facade.
I just saw the story of your missing family tonight on E! The case is obviously complex; witness protection sounds the most logical to me–given the several changes of name by the wife and the lie about her age. I believe they are still alive. My heart goes out to your family and I pray your loved ones are safe and that you find them soon. Don’t give up!
i too believe they r in the witness protection program @ maybe they were looking up mexico to throw people off cuz why would summer change her name so many timez
Facinating story, my heart and prayers go out to the family. One can not help but try and speculate about this story and put the pieces of the puzzle together. Here are a few observation that stick out:
1. The wife changed her name in the past.
2. The kids often wore those hats as quick way to get them ready
3. The wife was having trouble moving into the new house
4. Despite the trouble accepting the new house, the family was heavy in the midst of renovation
5. They purchased things from craigslist
6.They aparently walked into Mexico after four days of being missing without touching their accounts.
7. If I heard this correctly they had over 100,000 in their savings and checking account untouched.
8. Car was found full of toys for the kids.
9. Home computer shows evidence of researching a crossing of the boarder
From these observations come the following theory:
1. Was the family mentally stable? I have a sister who went kind of nutty once and was obsessed with fixing up the house, she was inconsolible and her husband did everything he could do to apease her, buying what ever she wanted, eventually they divorced. This situation reminds of that, could Summer have gone house crazy? Could they have crossed the boarder in search of some tile or other item for the house that she desperately had to have? only to have met with foul play? Could the four days have been spent searching stores etc. locally for the item? This would explain the toys and the kids would need to be apeased for all this time spent shopping. They may have covered the toys originally cosidering driving across the boarder but later decided to walk. The habit of putting hats on the kids may a tell indication a lack of organization often associated with mental illness. A husband beaten down by fighting and attempting to please the woman he loves will go to great lengths and be blinded to the danger.
I do not believe that they were fleeing anything if this was the case they would not have left the car near by which would give away their direction, and they would have emptied a large portion of that 100 grand from their accounts. One problem that remains in my mind is if they had that much money, why the craiglist shopping and discount store items? Maybe they were just frugal, or maybe there was a reason they were making mostly cash, off line transactions, maybe their income was not as legit as reported. Perhaps there was some aspect to the family business not revealed?
Anyway theses are just a few points to consider, I hope they are found alive and well!
I will be praying for you all. God will lead you!!! NEVER GIVE UP!!
Yes, I agree. Witness protection, either they told on someone for something, and their safety was at risk, or they saw something they wished they hadn’t have. Either way I hope they are ok. This story still breaks my heart.
I feel really bad about his particular story. God help will help you. dont you worry
Hmm, I have a lot to thinks about.
Personally, I think both the bartender for La Vida Loca and his close HS friend are lying, they know something.
Also, Witness Protection is out of the ? . If that were the case the show on E! would have never aired. It is too much exposure.
I will be praying that they are found safe and alive. I believe that the High school friend and the bartender are lying i think they know something or where the family is and they just arent talking.
