• Troy Galloway Part 2: The Brainstormers

  Last week, we walked through the timeline of Troy Galloway’s disappearance and the events that unfolded in the days leading up to January 13, 2016. We learned how, after years of building a life and a steady support network in Santa Cruz, California, Troy moved to Sonora with his wife, placing hours of distance between himself and the people who had always been his safety net. Troy was a devoted father to his young son, but the distance made it difficult to maintain that same level of involvement in his life after the move.On January 15, 2016, Troy’s mother, Nancy, received a message from his wife telling her that Troy had disappeared two days earlier. Nancy was confused and alarmed by what she was hearing. His wife said Troy had run out of the house, underdressed for the cold, and never returned. After that exchange, Troy was finally reported missing, but a miscommunication between local agencies delayed getting the case to the appropriate investigators and beginning the search for Troy.Over time, pieces of information slowly came together. Neighbors recalled hearing a disturbance at Crystal Falls Lake on the night Troy vanished. Years later, advances in technology enabled investigators to interpret Troy’s phone data with greater clarity, suggesting that his phone had been near the lake around the time he disappeared. For a long time, this became the guiding theory: that Troy had somehow ended up in the water.That idea guided the investigation, culminating in an extensive, highly coordinated search effort. Crystal Falls Lake was drained, scanned, and combed through by forensic specialists, dogs, and sonar teams. But when the search turned up no trace of Troy or his belongings, the explanation that had once seemed most likely suddenly stood on shaky ground. If Troy wasn’t in the lake, then the story everyone had been leaning on for years no longer fit, and the investigation was forced back to its earliest questions.This week, we’re going to dig deeper into what Troy’s loved ones learned about his time in Sonora, what they began to uncover about the dynamics within his marriage, and the questions that still haunt Troy’s family as they enter the tenth year of searching for answers.If you have any information about the disappearance of Troy Galloway, please contact the Tuolumne County Sheriff’s Office at (209) 533-5855.If you have a missing loved one that you would like to have featured on the show, please fill out our case submission form.Follow The Vanished on social media at:FacebookInstagramPatreonSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

• Troy Galloway Part 1: Sounds in the Snow

  January 13, 2016, was a chilly winter day in Sonora, California. That day, thirty-four-year-old Troy Galloway was reportedly at home with his wife and young daughter when the couple had a disagreement. According to his wife, Troy ran out of the house and into the cold, snowy yard wearing only a t-shirt, jeans, and shoes. Troy never returned, and no one has seen or heard from him since. A couple of days later, Troy’s mother, Nancy, who was back home a few hours away in Santa Cruz, received a text from Troy’s wife saying that he was missing. Nancy was both shocked and frustrated that she hadn’t been notified sooner. At that point, Troy still had not been reported missing, and once he was, a jurisdictional mix-up further delayed search efforts.Since Troy was not reported missing right away, it took time to connect his disappearance to a commotion that neighbors said they heard the night he vanished. The neighbors were concerned enough to report it to law enforcement that evening. However, learning that information didn’t bring anyone closer to finding Troy; it only deepened the mystery. If Troy had truly run from the home on foot that night, underdressed for the January weather, where did he go? How did he disappear without a trace? And was that commotion heard by neighbors connected to Troy’s disappearance?For nearly a decade, Troy’s loved ones have been trying to piece together what clues they have to answer those questions. Today, they’re hoping to reach someone who holds the missing piece that could finally explain what happened to Troy Galloway back in January of 2016.If you have any information about the disappearance of Troy Galloway, please contact the Tuolumne Sheriff's Office at (209) 533-5855.If you have a missing loved one that you would like to have featured on the show, please fill out our case submission form.Follow The Vanished on social media at:FacebookInstagramPatreonSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

• Replay: Dorothy Goroshko Part 2 - Mary Jane

  This episode first aired on August 14, 2023. In Part 1 of Dorothy Goroshko’s story, you heard about her life from her sons, John and Rick. Their childhood was difficult even before Dorothy disappeared and grew even more complicated afterward. Despite Dorothy’s faults, Rick is determined to find her, and John believes he deserves answers. They lost their mother at a critical time in their lives and were left to wonder whether she had chosen to abandon them or if something tragic had happened. Neither possibility brought any comfort. After she went missing, the boys also had to take on adult responsibilities, working to keep a roof over their heads and food on the table.On June 4, 1975, Dorothy left home to meet friends for drinks at The Penalty Box in Boston, Massachusetts. Her group of friends frequently spent time at that bar near North Station. They recalled that Dorothy stayed with them throughout the evening and remained until closing. They said their goodbyes, and no one knew where she went next. There were rumors of after-hours clubs in the area, but no one could confirm whether she had been at any of them that night. Could Dorothy have headed home and been involved in an accident? Could she have gone home with someone she met? Or was she planning to meet someone afterward? In recent years, one person has come forward claiming to have seen Dorothy late that night.If you have any information regarding the disappearance of Dorothy Goroshko, please contact the Boston Police Department Homicide Unit at 617-343-4470.

• David Horn Jr.

  It was Christmas Day 2017 when 35-year-old David Horn Jr. vanished from Marcus Hook, Pennsylvania. At the time, Dave was living alone just around the corner in Trainer. That evening, the Philadelphia Eagles were set to play the Raiders. Dave had been born and raised in the Philadelphia area and was a devoted Eagles fan. Spending a holiday night at a neighborhood pub to watch the game would not have been unusual for him. What was unusual was that as other fans were filing in to settle down for the Christmas night game, Dave walked out of the bar. No one ever saw or heard from him again.Dave had plans to leave for a trip to Las Vegas right after the holiday, so when he went quiet, friends and family assumed he was already there. But in early January, Dave’s father went to check on him and found an unsettling scene. Dave’s truck was still parked outside. Inside, the lights and TV were on, and his belongings appeared untouched. Even the plane tickets for his upcoming trip were sitting out in plain view. Then his father noticed the basement door had a broken window with what looked like blood on it.By then, precious days had already passed. As his family retraced his steps, they confirmed that the last known sighting of Dave was at the pub in Marcus Hook. They learned he had ordered an Uber that evening, but the ride was canceled. After that moment, his trail went cold. Nearly eight years later, Dave’s loved ones are still searching for answers about what happened that Christmas night and why he never made it home.If you have any information about the disappearance of David Horn Jr., please contact the Trainer Borough Police Department at (610) 494-7399.If you have a missing loved one that you would like to have featured on the show, please fill out our case submission form.Follow The Vanished on social media at:FacebookInstagramPatreonSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
