On August 15, 2008, a mother dropped her five-year-old son off to visit his father for the weekend. Her ex, Ernesto Gonzalez, hadn’t been very involved in their son, Giovanni’s, life since their separation three years prior, but he recently started making an effort to have a relationship with the boy. Daisy Colon packed Giovanni’s backpack with clothes and dropped him off in nearby Lynn, Massachusetts. But when she came to pick him up again, her little boy was gone.

An investigation was launched, and police even eventually secured a confession. The problem? Investigators didn’t believe it. Daisy believes that Ernesto hit their son somewhere, but nearly 15 years later, no one has found him. What happened to Giovanni Colon-Gonzalez?

If you have any information regarding the disappearance of Giovanni Colon-Gonzalez, you can contact the Lynn Police Department at 781-595-2000.

1, 2, 3, the Donahue family counted. 4, 5, 6, the numbers changed on the banner at their Arden Road home in Nokesville, Virginia. The days turned into weeks, which turned into months, which turned into years. The number had reached over 5,000 before the Donahue family got the news that they had been waiting for: an arrest had been made in the murder of their son, Shane.

On March 22, 2010, 23-year-old Shane Donahue left his parents’ home and told them that he loved them. Shane, who didn’t drive at the time, got a ride with his buddy, Tim Hickerson. Shane was never seen nor heard from again. Over the past 14 years, there have been many allegations made by both the Donahue and Hickerson families, but little in the way of answers or media coverage. Then, on September 17, 2024, Tim Hickerson was arrested in Florida for the murder of his friend, Shane Donahue. It marks the first major movement on this case in over a decade, but the disappearance of Shane Donahue is far from being solved.

Anyone with information regarding Shane Donahue’s disappearance is urged to contact the Prince William County Police Department at 763-792-7279.

On March 22, 2010, 23-year-old Nokesville, Virginia resident Shane Donahue was having a good day. He had just gotten paid $5,000 in cash for installing ceiling tiles at a local business. He was with his buddy, Timothy Hickerson, who helped him with the job. The friends went over to Shane’s parents’ house for a while before getting into Timothy’s truck and heading off. But no one ever saw Shane again after that. And now, over 10 years later, a grieving family continues to be rocked by tragedy while searching for answers as rumors and accusations swirl around their small town.

Anyone with information regarding Shane Donahue’s disappearance is urged to contact the Prince William County Police Department at 763-792-7279.

In 1999, she saved a couple from flooding after Hurricane Floyd. In 2002, she joined the Army so she could serve her country after the 9/11 terrorist attacks. In 2006, she vanished.

On October 10, 2006, 29-year-old Margaret Haddican-McEnroe was a mother of three girls, including a 6-month-old, when she allegedly walked out of her Warren, New Jersey home, leaving behind her cell phone, car, and her baby, never to be seen again. According to her husband, Margaret was dealing with post-partum depression at the time, and had previously threatened suicide. But after 18 years with no sign of Margaret, those closest to her don’t believe that she went missing on her own.

Anyone with information regarding Margaret Haddican-McEnroe’s disappearance is urged to contact the Somerset County Prosecutor's Office at 908-231-7100 or through the CrimeStoppers TIPS line at 1-888-577-TIPS.

On October 2, 2024, police announced a huge break in the case of missing 6-year-old, Morgan Nick. A hair that is a DNA match to hers was found in the truck owned by longtime suspect in her case, Billy Jack Links. Links died in prison in 2000, so now the investigation's focus is on finding Morgan's body. We released our episode on Morgan's case in 2021, so this week we are re-releasing it here. 

6-year-old Morgan Nick was catching fireflies with her friends on a hot summer night in Alma, Arkansas. She was with her mother at a little league game, having the sort of summer that childhood memories are built on. But as the game ended and her friends returned to their parents, Morgan was gone. Only minutes had passed since Morgan had been seen, but there was no trace of the little girl. Despite a lightning-fast police response and an eyewitness account of a “creepy” man talking to Morgan, no trace of her was found after June 9, 1995. 

But nearly 30 years later, Morgan’s mother Colleen still spends every single day fighting for her daughter and searching for answers. Can new technology be the key to finally bringing Morgan home?

If you have any information regarding Morgan Nick’s disappearance, please contact the Alma, Arkansas Police at 479-632-3333.

In the early morning hours of February 14, 2000, 9-year-old Asha Degree took her backpack and slipped out of her Shelby, North Carolina home. Several motorists later reported seeing her walking alone in a rainstorm at around 4 am. Where was she going? What or who made her leave her home that night?

Over the next 24 years, Asha Degree’s story has been the subject of countless blogs, internet forums, Youtube videos, and podcasts. People have become obsessed with getting answers. What made a 9-year-old girl leave her house in the middle of the night, and what happened to her after that?

In September 2024, we finally got some potential answers to the second question after a series of search warrants were executed at various properties in North Carolina. While we still may not know what caused Asha to leave that night, investigators now believe that they have the names of some of the people who were involved in her disappearance.

Anyone with information on the disappearance of Asha Degree is asked to call the Cleveland County Sheriff’s Office at 704-484-4788, or the FBI at 704-672-6100. There is a $45,000 reward for information that can solve this case.

A 15-year-old girl had an argument with her father about her grades. It’s a scene parents all over the world are likely familiar with, and one that is usually forgotten in a day or two. But when Katya Lyne had this argument with her father, Pat, on March 21, 1997, it ended in tragedy. Within days, Katya was missing, and her father was dead. The Lyne family’s world was completely turned upside down.

Though police believed Katya was a runaway, they couldn’t be sure that she hadn’t met with foul play. Nearly 30 years later, Katya’s sister, Tracy, believes her sister is still out there and still wants her to come home.

Anyone with information regarding Katya Lyne's disappearance can call the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children’s 24-hour hotline at 800-843-5678, or the Federal Way Police Department at 253-835-6700.

Asha Degree was a bright, talented, happy 9-year-old living with her parents and brother in Shelby, North Carolina. She was an excellent student and the star of her basketball team. Surrounded by grandparents, aunts, uncles, and cousins, there was no shortage of love in Asha’s life. But in the early morning hours of February 14, 2000, Asha took her backpack that she had packed with several changes of clothes and slipped out of her house.

Several motorists later reported seeing her walking alone in a rainstorm at around 4 am. Where was Asha Degree going? What or who made her leave her home that night? After nearly 25 years, this remains one of the most confounding cases not only in the small town of Shelby, but in the entire country.

On September 10, 2024, the FBI executed several search warrants near where Asha was last seen. In this mini update, we're telling you what we know about this search, and including our original episode on Asha's case from October 2023.

Anyone with information on the disappearance of Asha Degree is asked to call the Cleveland County Sheriff’s Office at 704-484-4788, or the FBI at 704-672-6100. There is a $45,000 reward for information that can solve this case.

On January 29, 1992, Byron Page was getting ready to go to college and take his driver’s exam. He had already been accepted into several schools, with more acceptance letters on the way. That afternoon, the 17-year-old decided to take the bus to his favorite movie and music store in West Hollywood, California. He never made it.

Despite being a promising student with no issues in his personal life, Byron’s case garnered very little attention in a city transfixed by the Rodney King trial. After a short investigation, police believed that he had met with foul play, but his case quickly went cold. Now, after 30 years, is there a chance that someone out there knows what happened to Byron Page?

If anyone has any information on the disappearance of Byron Eric Page, please contact Detective Tamar Abraham at the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department at 323-890-5500.
