The reader noticed that The Bachelor’s Bekah Martinez looked remarkably similar to one of the missing person photos.
The deputy who originally took the report then called Martinez’s cell phone number — which was filed in the report — and spoke to Martinez on Thursday.
After comparing the photo with ones from Martinez’s Instagram, the North Coast Journal did some digging and reached out to the Humboldt County Sheriff’s Office.
One did, and this person was a fan of The Bachelor.
