Whoever took them or whatever happened because we don't know what happened.

We haven't got leads on this in a long time. There hasn't been call-ins on this, you know, very, very, very long time.

So this is one of those cases that kind of just nags, actually, you know, you wish you had something that would, that would surf it so that you can try and bring some closure to this.

And it's been since day one that I'm the advocate for my family. Some of my older brothers and sisters, they can't handle it.

My little brothers and sisters were too little, so it just got burned on my shoulders.

And it's a path that I never wanted to take, but it's my life. And I want answers for my brothers and sisters, and they deserve them as well as I do.

It's hard because, I mean, they're going back 20-something years. Some people move. Some might have passed already, trying to find them.

Some of them, they fall off the grid. They're hard to try to track out. It's harder to solve.

On May 23rd, 1993, 14-year-old Danielle Pitcher left the family home with her mother Dorothy.

The two planned to walk to the local convenience store in Sanizona, Arizona to buy some cigarettes for her father.

On their way, they stopped at Danielle's sister Dana's house, and then they continued on their walk.

Although witnesses spotted them walking along their route that day, Danielle and Dorothy never made a home and haven't been seen in the 26 years since that day.

I'm Marissa, and from Wondery, this is episode 189 of The Vanished. Danielle and Dorothy's story.

Hello, I'm Hannah. And I'm Sirete. And we are the hosts of A Red Handed, a weekly True Crime Podcast.

Every week on Red Handed, we get stuck into the most talked-about cases.

From the Idaho student killings, the Delphine murders, and our recent rundown of The Murdoch Saga.

Last year, we also started a second weekly show, Short Hand, which is just an excuse for us to talk about anything we find interesting because it's our show and we can do what we like.

We've covered the death of Princess Diana, an unholy Quran written in Saddam Hussein's blood, the gruesome history of European witch hunting, and the very uncomfortable phenomenon of genetic sexual attraction.

Whatever the case, we want to know what pushes people to the extremes of human behavior.

Like, can someone give consent to be cannibalized? What drives a child to kill? And what's the psychology of a terrorist?

Listen to Red Handed wherever you get your podcast, so access our bonus Short Hand episodes exclusively on Amazon Music, or by subscribing to Wondry Plus in Apple Podcasts or the Wondry app.
