And Then They Were Gone

<p>Each week hosts Kona and Ethan go beyond the headlines and social media posts to do a deep dive into a different missing persons case. Do you hold the key to bringing someone home?</p><p><br /></p>

Case Updates December 2025

When someone goes missing, time doesn’t stop — but the world often moves on. For families, every day without answers becomes a kind of waiting room, where hope and grief exist side by side. We’ve covered hundreds of cases on this podcast, and we try to offer follow ups whenever we can, because the person’s story doesn’t end when our episode does. This week, we’re revisiting four cases that we’ve previously covered: Chance Englebert, Mary Johnson, Sage Smith, and Trudy Appleby, because in 2025, each of these cases saw significant developments. Some brought long-awaited answers, while others brought more painful questions. All of them remind us why it’s so important to keep these stories alive.Subscribe to Day by Day: True Crime StoriesBuy the ebook! - And Then They Were Gone: True Stories of Those Who Went Missing and Never Came HomeSubmit a caseFind us everywhereGet episodes early and ad-free on PatreonMerch storeOur Sponsors:* Check out Acorns Early: https://acornsearly.com/ATTWG* Check out Avocado Green Mattress: https://avocadogreenmattress.com* Check out Earth Breeze: https://earthbreeze.com/attwg* Check out Everyday Dose and use my code ATTWG for a great deal: https://everydaydose.com* Check out Happy Mammoth and use my code ATTWG for a great deal: https://happymammoth.com* Check out Kensington Publishing: https://www.kensingtonbooks.com* Check out Mind of a Monster: The Killer Nurse: https://podcasts.apple.com* Check out Mood and use my code ATTWG for a great deal: https://mood.com* Check out PharmaNutra and use my code ATTWG for a great deal: https://pharmanutra-us.comAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

December 9 - The Disappearance of Joan Bernal

On this day in 1988, 34-year-old Joan Yarbrough Bernal was supposed to be hitting the road with her husband and children for a holiday trip from Joliet, Illinois, to Texas. Instead, she vanished without a trace—and was never seen again.Her husband, Gilbert “Gil” Bernal, has long claimed that Joan walked away from her life during the road trip. But Joan’s children and investigators believe the truth is much darker—and that Joan may never have made it out of Joliet.In this episode, we trace Joan’s story: her life as a devoted mother of five, the troubling history of domestic abuse in her home, and the suspicious timeline of events surrounding her disappearance. We explore the initial 1993 murder charge against Gil that was later dropped, and how, decades later, the case has been revived with new forensic efforts and national attention thanks to Cold Justice.Thirty-seven years on, Joan’s body has never been found, and no one has been held accountable. But her children—and cold case detectives—still haven’t stopped searching for the truth.Subscribe to Day by Day: True Crime StoriesBuy the ebook! - And Then They Were Gone: True Stories of Those Who Went Missing and Never Came HomeSubmit a caseFind us everywhereGet episodes early and ad-free on PatreonMerch storeOur Sponsors:* Check out Acorns Early: https://acornsearly.com/ATTWG* Check out Avocado Green Mattress: https://avocadogreenmattress.com* Check out Earth Breeze: https://earthbreeze.com/attwg* Check out Everyday Dose and use my code ATTWG for a great deal: https://everydaydose.com* Check out Happy Mammoth and use my code ATTWG for a great deal: https://happymammoth.com* Check out Kensington Publishing: https://www.kensingtonbooks.com* Check out Mind of a Monster: The Killer Nurse: https://podcasts.apple.com* Check out Mood and use my code ATTWG for a great deal: https://mood.com* Check out PharmaNutra and use my code ATTWG for a great deal: https://pharmanutra-us.comAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

D'Wan Sims

On December 11, 1994, 4-year-old D’Wan Sims, went with his mother Dwanna Harris to do some Christmas shopping at the Wonderland Mall in Livonia, Michigan. According to Dwanna, they arrived around 1:45 PM and entered through the Target store at the mall. D’Wan followed his mother around the mall until one horrible moment when Dwanna realized her son was no longer by her side.A massive search ensued, but there was no sign of the little boy. As the investigation intensified, Livonia police began to wonder, “was D’Wan ever at the mall in the first place?” Now, over thirty years later, investigators are still trying to figure out exactly what happened on that cold December day, and hoping to finally find D’Wan.If you have information about the disappearance of D’Wan Sims, please contact the Livonia Police Department at 734-466-2470.Subscribe to Day by Day: True Crime StoriesBuy the ebook! - And Then They Were Gone: True Stories of Those Who Went Missing and Never Came HomeSubmit a caseFind us everywhereGet episodes early and ad-free on PatreonMerch storeOur Sponsors:* Check out Acorns Early: https://acornsearly.com/ATTWG* Check out Avocado Green Mattress: https://avocadogreenmattress.com* Check out Earth Breeze: https://earthbreeze.com/attwg* Check out Everyday Dose and use my code ATTWG for a great deal: https://everydaydose.com* Check out Happy Mammoth and use my code ATTWG for a great deal: https://happymammoth.com* Check out Kensington Publishing: https://www.kensingtonbooks.com* Check out Mind of a Monster: The Killer Nurse: https://podcasts.apple.com* Check out Mood and use my code ATTWG for a great deal: https://mood.com* Check out PharmaNutra and use my code ATTWG for a great deal: https://pharmanutra-us.comAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

Shane Donahue: The Trial of Tim Hickerson

In this special episode of 'And Then They Were Gone', Kona and Ethan return to a case they’ve been following for years, the disappearance and murder of Shane Donahue, to break down everything that unfolded inside the courtroom during the trial of Tim Hickerson.Kona attended the trial in person, witnessing each day of testimony, every witness, and the prosecution’s strategy as they laid out their case against the man accused of taking Shane’s life. This episode walks listeners through how prosecutors presented their evidence, how witnesses held up under cross-examination, and what key moments left those sitting in the courtroom confounded.Throughout the conversation, Kona and Ethan reflect on what they’ve learned since first covering Shane’s disappearance in 2020, and what this trial revealed about the events leading up to his death, the investigation that followed, and the long path toward justice.This is a deep dive into one of Prince William County, Virginia's most controversial cases, and a look at what it’s like to sit inside a courtroom when a 15-year-old case is finally put in front of a jury. Subscribe to Day by Day: True Crime StoriesBuy the ebook! - And Then They Were Gone: True Stories of Those Who Went Missing and Never Came HomeSubmit a caseFind us everywhereGet episodes early and ad-free on PatreonMerch storeOur Sponsors:* Check out Acorns Early: https://acornsearly.com/ATTWG* Check out Avocado Green Mattress: https://avocadogreenmattress.com* Check out Earth Breeze: https://earthbreeze.com/attwg* Check out Everyday Dose and use my code ATTWG for a great deal: https://everydaydose.com* Check out Happy Mammoth and use my code ATTWG for a great deal: https://happymammoth.com* Check out Kensington Publishing: https://www.kensingtonbooks.com* Check out Mind of a Monster: The Killer Nurse: https://podcasts.apple.com* Check out Mood and use my code ATTWG for a great deal: https://mood.com* Check out PharmaNutra and use my code ATTWG for a great deal: https://pharmanutra-us.comAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

November 6 - The Disappearance of Nancy Snow

In the days following the 1980 presidential election, 44-year-old political fundraiser Nancy Marleine Snow returned home to Maryland — and vanished.A multilingual world traveler and political professional, Nancy had spent the fall working on a Senate campaign in St. Louis. On November 4, she flew to Baltimore, attended an election party, and the next morning, was picked up by a man she trusted — her housesitter, Paul T. Collins III. That was the last confirmed time she was seen alive.Days later, Collins told police that Nancy had met a mysterious man called “Captain Jay,” who offered her a job crewing a yacht from Fort Lauderdale to the Caribbean. He claimed she left Annapolis with $1,000 in cash and would be home by Christmas.But investigators never found a “Captain Jay.” No boat, no records, no passport use — nothing to support the story.As weeks passed, Nancy’s daughters in California grew frantic. When her oldest daughter’s birthday came and went with no call, they knew something was wrong. They filed missing-person reports, searched Florida marinas, and pushed police in Maryland to investigate.Decades later, detectives would call Nancy’s disappearance what they believe it truly was — a homicide. The man who last saw her, Paul Collins, remains a person of interest.The supposed boat trip? Still unverified.Nancy’s remains? Still missing.Forty-four years later, her daughters continue to fight for answers.Subscribe to Day by Day: True Crime StoriesBuy the ebook! - And Then They Were Gone: True Stories of Those Who Went Missing and Never Came HomeSubmit a caseFind us everywhereGet episodes early and ad-free on PatreonMerch storeOur Sponsors:* Check out Acorns Early: https://acornsearly.com/ATTWG* Check out Avocado Green Mattress: https://avocadogreenmattress.com* Check out Earth Breeze: https://earthbreeze.com/attwg* Check out Everyday Dose and use my code ATTWG for a great deal: https://everydaydose.com* Check out Happy Mammoth and use my code ATTWG for a great deal: https://happymammoth.com* Check out Kensington Publishing: https://www.kensingtonbooks.com* Check out Mind of a Monster: The Killer Nurse: https://podcasts.apple.com* Check out Mood and use my code ATTWG for a great deal: https://mood.com* Check out PharmaNutra and use my code ATTWG for a great deal: https://pharmanutra-us.comAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

Re-Release: CJ and Billy Vosseler

We’ve all heard of people who have used children as pawns in a divorce. Maybe they’re fighting on visitation or child support payments because they don’t want to give their soon-to-be ex what they want. But in some extreme cases, the animosity and need for control can be destructive. Charles Vosseler needed to be in charge. He needed to decide where his two sons, 3-year-old CJ, and 2-year-old Billy, were at all times. So when it was clear that his marriage to his wife, Ruth, wasn’t working out, Charles hatched a plan.On October 9, 1986, this plan culminated in him kidnapping his children and keeping them hidden for decades. Over the past 30-plus years, Ruth has never given up on her children. Today, she is still out there fighting to keep their names and their faces in the public consciousness, in hopes of finally bringing them home.There is a $25,000 reward offered to anyone who can provide information leading to the location of Charles Vosseler, CJ, or Billy. If you have any information, please contact your local FBI Field Office, your local American Embassy or Consulate, or the Rochester Police at 603-335-7529.Se ofrece una recompensa de $ 25,000 a cualquiera que pueda proporcionar información que conduzca a la ubicación de Charles Vosseler, CJ o Billy.

Keith Reinhard

On August 7, 1988, Chicago sportswriter turned aspiring novelist Keith Reinhard locked up his antique shop and set out for the same mountain he’d spent the summer writing about. Keith told friends he’d be back by nightfall… but he never returned. What’s even more chilling, was that he wasn’t the first person to disappear from the small mining town of Silver Plume, Colorado. Just under a year earlier, a bookstore owner named Tom Young had similarly locked up his store and set off, only to seemingly vanish into thin air.Two vanishings, one old mining town.

Laureen Rahn

On April 26, 1980, 14-year-old Laureen Rahn had a taste of freedom. Her mother was away watching a tennis match, meaning Laureen had the house to herself that night. She invited a few friends over, and they hung out and drank for a while, before going to bed. But when Laureen’s mother, Judy returned a few hours later, she found her daughter’s friend fast asleep, but Laureen was nowhere to be found. Police initially classified the teenager as a runaway, but her family says she would never have left everything behind. But over the years, a series of strange phone calls made them wonder: is Laureen actually out there somewhere? If you have any information about the disappearance of Laureen Rahn, please contact the Manchester Police Department at 1-603-668-8711.Subscribe to Day by Day: True Crime StoriesBuy the ebook! - And Then They Were Gone: True Stories of Those Who Went Missing and Never Came HomeSubmit a caseFind us everywhereGet episodes early and ad-free on PatreonMerch storeOur Sponsors:* Check out Acorns Early: https://acornsearly.com/ATTWG* Check out Avocado Green Mattress: https://avocadogreenmattress.com* Check out Earth Breeze: https://earthbreeze.com/attwg* Check out Everyday Dose and use my code ATTWG for a great deal: https://everydaydose.com* Check out Happy Mammoth and use my code ATTWG for a great deal: https://happymammoth.com* Check out Kensington Publishing: https://www.kensingtonbooks.com* Check out Mind of a Monster: The Killer Nurse: https://podcasts.apple.com* Check out Mood and use my code ATTWG for a great deal: https://mood.com* Check out PharmaNutra and use my code ATTWG for a great deal: https://pharmanutra-us.comAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

Jacob Cabinaw

On March 31, 2010, 31-year-old Jacob Cabinaw spent the evening playing a casual round of frisbee golf with a friend in Traverse City, Michigan. When the game wrapped up, Jacob’s friend invited him to hang out at a local park, but he declined, saying he had homework to do for his college classes. He dropped the friend off and said he was heading home to his mom’s house, where he lived. But It was the last time anyone in Michigan would see Jacob Cabinaw.In the coming days, puzzling clues emerged suggesting that instead of driving home, Jacob had driven over 1,200 miles south instead. By the end of that week, Jacob had vanished without a trace, leaving behind a mystifying trail that stretched from Michigan to Texas, and a family who doesn’t believe he would have left them willingly.If you have any information about the disappearance of Jacob Cabinaw, please contact the Grand Traverse County Sheriff’s Office at 231-995-5002, or submit an anonymous tip through their website.

Re-Release: Ben McDaniel

“Go no farther. There’s nothing in this cave worth dying for.” Those were the words printed on the sign at the entrance of an underwater cave in Vortex Springs, Florida. Despite this plaintive warning and the drawing of the Grim Reaper that accompanied it, many divers of differing skill levels failed to heed these words in search of adventure. On August 18, 2010, 30-year-old Ben McDaniel was seen entering the water in his scuba gear. He was never seen on land again.What was at first assumed to be a tragic, yet straightforward diving accident came into question as days went by without Ben’s body being found. Did Ben get deeper into the cave than anyone could have imagined? Or did someone remove him from the water before searchers could find him? Some have questioned if Ben was ever in the water at all that night, or if something completely different happened on the ground. The only thing we know for sure is that after a decade, despite an extensive search, no one knows for sure what happened to Ben McDaniel.Anyone with information on the disappearance of Ben McDaniel is urged to call the Holmes County Sheriff's Office 850-547-3681.Subscribe to Day by Day: True Crime StoriesBuy the ebook! - And Then They Were Gone: True Stories of Those Who Went Missing and Never Came HomeSubmit a caseFind us everywhereGet episodes early and ad-free on PatreonMerch storeOur Sponsors:* Check out Acorns Early: https://acornsearly.com/ATTWG* Check out Avocado Green Mattress: https://avocadogreenmattress.com* Check out Earth Breeze: https://earthbreeze.com/attwg* Check out Everyday Dose and use my code ATTWG for a great deal: https://everydaydose.com* Check out Happy Mammoth and use my code ATTWG for a great deal: https://happymammoth.com* Check out Kensington Publishing: https://www.kensingtonbooks.com* Check out Mind of a Monster: The Killer Nurse: https://podcasts.apple.com* Check out Mood and use my code ATTWG for a great deal: https://mood.com* Check out PharmaNutra and use my code ATTWG for a great deal: https://pharmanutra-us.comAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

Had hopes that these two intelligent podcasters would not be on the "sarah did it" bandwagon. Yet they give all benefit of the doubt to the male persons of interest, and consider Sarah with all her mental health and IQ issues as some kind of mastermind. of ANYTHING! sarah sounds like the suspect most distressed by the crime, not the most coldblooded of them.There better be some evidence to support this very wild story. conveniently there are sex offender neighbors who are somehow "uninvolved".

this case sounds similar to Arkansas's Rebecca Gould case, and in a way the Holly Bobo case. a lack of imagination in the true crime community is so annoying. like, there were neighbors; were any of them bad people? how secure was that abandoned house, with no utilities, kept? could anyone have been inside the house that did not belong there? why not burn her belongings while "destroying" evidence"?

I live about 30 miles from circle mt and this part of the country has nothing but farm fields and open land. you can see for hundreds of miles it seems like. It doesn't make sense where she went or how she disappeared because of this reason. Regardless it's a sad heartbreaking story!

have the others in the homeschooling group ever spoken about the case or the incident with the four year old?
