In May 1992, fourteen-year-old Radina Marie Djukich disappeared from North Beach in Perth’s northern suburbs. At first, her absence didn’t feel alarming. It felt temporary.This episode explores Radina’s life before she went missing, the assumptions that shaped the early response, and how vulnerability can be quietly misread. It reflects on a cycle that continues today, as children and teenagers are still reported missing across Perth, some returning home, others never doing so.Listener discretion advised.
