On the morning of Friday, September 14, 2007, a fourteen-year-old boy in Doncaster, England put on his school uniform, told his family "see you later," and walked out the front door, but he never got on his school bus. Instead, he waited until everyone had left his house, then went back inside. He changed out of his school uniform, grabbed a few items, and headed to the Doncaster railway station where he bought a one-way ticket to London.
At 11:25 that morning, a CCTV camera watched him walk out of King's Cross station and into a city of eight million people. Now, nearly 19 years later, that eight seconds of footage is still the last confirmed sighting of Andrew Gosden.
If you have any information about the disappearance of Andrew Gosden, please contact South Yorkshire Police online or by calling 101, or submit information through the police's public portal for the case at mipp.police.uk. In the UK, you can also contact the charity Missing People, free and confidentially, on 116 000. Missing People's reference number for Andrew is 07-019198.

On the night of July 14, 2016, a sixteen-year-old girl in Aurora, Colorado told her mother goodnight. She then went to her room and went out the window. She was picked up on surveillance video near a bus stop in the 1600 block of North Peoria Street. But Lashaya Stine never made it home.
Police wrote Lashaya off as a runaway at first, but she wasn’t a troubled kid. She was an honors student. She wanted to be a nurse, and had just been selected for an internship at the University of Colorado Hospital. She even had a job interview scheduled the next morning. She had no reason to leave and had taken nothing with her. As investigators dug into Lashaya, the evidence began to show that whatever happened to her that night, she hadn’t planned on staying gone.
If you have any information about Lashaya's disappearance, please contact the Aurora Police Department at (303) 627-3100, the Aurora Police Crimes Against Children Tip Line at (303) 739-6164, or Metro Denver Crime Stoppers at (720) 913-7867. You can remain anonymous. There is a combined reward of up to $15,000 for information leading to her whereabouts.

Three bones, some clothing, a lighter, and a pocketknife. Those were the items found by a duck hunter checking his blinds on July 25, 2021. It took almost exactly five years to put the pieces together, but on July 23, 2026, those bones were identified as belonging to Shane Workman, who had been missing from Lewistown, Pennsylvania since 2017.
Shane’s disappearance was met with rumors of set-ups, murder, or a voluntary disappearance. Despite an influx of tips, his case went cold. Shane’s family never gave up on him though, and while they now know that he’s never coming home, they’re still fighting for answers. As his father, Mike Hewitt, said,
“We don't have to look for him anymore just his killer.”
Anyone with information regarding Shane Workman’s disappearance is urged to contact Detective Det. Mary Woods at (717) 248-6716 Ext. 427. If you are interested in helping with volunteer efforts, please reach out to voicesforvanished@gmail.com or visit voicesforvanished.com.

We originally covered the case of Shane Workman in November 2024. In August 2026, his body was found. We have published a short update episode right after this re-release.
“Nobody is doing anything because Shane was a drug addict everybody goes back to that.”
That was a comment that Mike Hewitt made on a Facebook post about his missing son, Shane Workman. Not only does Mike have to deal with the constant pain of having a missing son, but he does this while believing that no one cares. Mike is not alone. Many family members of missing people who don’t fit the mold of the “perfect victim” experience the exact same thing. But Shane, and all missing people deserve to be found.
On April 25, 2010 at around 10 pm, 31-year-old Shane Workman told his dad he was going to run to Sheetz, a gas station near their home in Lewistown, Pennsylvania. But Shane never made it there. Mike and his partner, Cindy Workman, didn’t realize anything was wrong, and went on a camping trip the next morning. It wouldn’t be until they returned that they realized their son had never come home after his trip to the gas station. A search party was formed immediately, but despite many tips, including people who may have been involved in Shane’s disappearance, Mike says that Lewistown Police quickly lost interest. After seven years, Shane is still missing, but his family is still fighting for Shane and for justice.
Anyone with information regarding Shane Workman’s disappearance is urged to contact Detective Det. Mary Woods at (717) 248-6716 Ext. 427. If you are interested in helping with volunteer efforts, please reach out to voicesforvanished@gmail.com or visit voicesforvanished.com.

13-year-old Leigh Occhi was left alone for an hour on the morning of August 27, 1992. In that short window of time, something violent happened in her Tupelo, Mississippi home. Blood, hair, and clothing were all left behind, but Leigh was gone.
The remnants of Hurricane Andrew washed away potential clues, and no trace of Leigh was found. Soon, the whispers started about someone close to Leigh: Vickie Felton, her mother. But According to Vickie, there was someone else who police needed to look at: a man named Oscar “Mike” Kearny; Leigh’s Sunday School teacher. Could a horrific crime committed nine months after Leigh’s disappearance hold the answers in her case?
If you have any information about the disappearance of Leigh Occhi, please contact the Tupelo Police Department at (662) 841-6491, or Crime Stoppers of Northeast Mississippi at 1-800-773-TIPS.

On the morning of August 27, 1992, the remnants of Hurricane Andrew were heading toward Tupelo, Mississippi. Inside a small house on Honey Locust Drive, a thirteen-year-old girl named Leigh Occhi was home alone, still in her nightgown. She had an open house at her middle school later that day, and her mom had just left for work.
Around 8:30, her mother was worried about the storm, so called home to check on Leigh, but there was no answer. She called again. Still no answer. So she made the mile and a half drive home. She'd been gone less than an hour, but when she got home, Leigh was gone.
In the thirty-four years since that morning, there has never been an arrest, but there have been a few people who have never quite been ruled out. Can new searches finally bring the answers that have been hidden for over three decades?
If you have any information about the disappearance of Leigh Occhi, please contact the Tupelo Police Department at (662) 841-6491, or Crime Stoppers of Northeast Mississippi at 1-800-773-TIPS.

Sometime in the early morning hours of April 6, 1986, someone knocked on the door of a small home just off Route 66 in Gallup, New Mexico. A nine-year-old girl named Anthonette Cayedito got out of bed. By the time the sun rose, she was gone. There have been many versions of what happened between the knock and when Anthonette’s family realized she was missing, but what we do know is that there was no forced entry, no struggle, and nothing was taken– except for Anthonette. A three-day search of Gallup and the land around it turned up nothing at all.
The next four decades would bring sightings, changing stories, and even what many believe is a confession. But to this day, Anthonette Cayedito remains missing.
If you have any information about the disappearance of Anthonette Cayedito, please contact the Gallup Police Department at (505) 863-9365, or the FBI's Albuquerque Division at (505) 889-1300. You can also submit a tip online at tips.fbi.gov.

Around noon on July 16, 1996, a 36-year-old writer named Susan Walsh told her family that she was going to run out to the pay phone down the block and make a call. She left behind her purse. She left behind her beeper. She left behind her medication and even her cigarettes.
No one ever saw her again.
Susan wasn’t just anyone who vanished. She was a journalist who wrote about things like the Russian mob’s grip on the go-go bars where she herself had danced, and the strange world of people in New York City who called themselves vampires. So when she disappeared, there was no shortage of lurid headlines and theories. Maybe she got too close to the wrong story. Maybe it was the vampires. Maybe it was someone much closer to home.
30 years later, we still don’t know which of those, if any, is true.
If you have any information about the disappearance of Susan Walsh, please contact the Nutley Police Department at (973) 284-4940.

On the night of August 31, 1976, a three-year-old girl crept out of bed and witnessed her father wrap his hands around her mother's throat, push her against the wall, and drag her out of sight. The next morning, her father, Ralph Otto, told her and her sister that their mother, 24-year-old Patty Otto, wasn’t coming back.
For years, Suzanne wasn’t sure what she had seen that night, but as she became an adult, she started questioning it more and more. Then, in 2021 a Facebook post turned everything she thought she knew about her mother’s disappearance completely on end. Now, she’s fighting three different states to find out what really happened to Patty Otto that night.
If you have any information about the disappearance of Patty Otto, please contact the Lewiston Police Department at (208) 746-0171. If you have any information about the identity of the Finley Creek Jane Doe, found near La Grande, Oregon in 1978, please contact the Oregon State Police.

This episode originally aired in 2024
When 13-year-old Bianca Piper got into an argument with her mother, Shannon Tanner, over doing the dishes, Shannon put her in the car, drove her a mile up the road, and told her to walk home. While this may seem like an odd form of punishment, it was actually something that had been recommended by Bianca’s therapist. But on March 10, 2005, Bianca never made it home.
Investigators in Foley, Missouri performed an extensive search but uncovered almost no clues regarding the missing girl. Over the years, they’ve investigated many theories, including the possibility of Bianca’s disappearance being related to those of other children in Lincoln County. Was Bianca abducted by a stranger, or was the reason behind her disappearance closer to home?
Anyone with information regarding Bianca Piper’s disappearance is urged to submit a tip through the Lincoln County Sheriff’s website or through their tipline at 636-462-6513.
