The influencer and adult content creator Nicolette Pardo Molina, widely known online as "La Nicholette" (or "La Muchacha del Salado"), was reportedly kidnapped on January 20, 2026, in the Isla Musalá neighborhood of Culiacán, Sinaloa, Mexico. The incident occurred in the afternoon near Plaza 11:11 (around 4-5 PM local time), where she was intercepted by armed men, reportedly 2-3 individuals, some appearing quite young, who arrived in a white Toyota Corolla (or similar vehicle). They forced her into their car after a struggle, as captured on video by her own vehicle's cameras. Her distinctive purple (or lilac/morado) Tesla Cybertruck was left abandoned at the scene and later secured by authorities. As of now, her whereabouts remain unknown, with no confirmed updates on her location or condition. The Sinaloa state prosecutor's office has activated the Protocolo Alba (a protocol for locating missing women) to aid in the search. This event has drawn significant attention due to the viral footage and her public profile as a TikTok/Instagram creator, entrepreneur (including a boutique and merchandise like caps), and OnlyFans personality, often recognized for her flashy lifestyle and the custom Cybertruck. Authorities have not released an official motive, though local speculation in some reports mentions possible links to organized crime.

The attackers, posing as construction workers, lay in wait. The woman with him was killed instantly at the scene. Insiders blame fierce rivalries over lucrative construction contracts, where Ramírez held major sway. This reeks of cartel-style execution.
