EPISODE 448: Randa Jawhari Part 2 - Ten of Spades

Last week, we brought you the first installment of Randa Jawhari’s story. You learned about Randa’s life, her strengths and challenges, her disappearance, and the early investigative efforts to find her. Randa was last seen on the evening of February 10, 2009. Her parents stopped by her apartment that night, and she later spoke to her sister, Fadia, on the telephone. That phone call ended around 11:30 PM. By the following morning, Randa was gone, and there weren’t many clues left behind to chase down.

EPISODE 447: Randa Jawhari Part 1 - Unknown Caller

On the evening of February 10, 2009, 42-year-old Randa Jawhari was alone at her apartment in Fenton, MI. Her parents had been by earlier that evening, and her mother had set out clothes for Randa. Later, Randa spoke to one of her sisters via telephone. That call ended around 11:30 PM. By the next morning, Randa’s mother became worried when she could not reach her, so she returned to Randa’s apartment. The clothes she had set out the night before were still there, seemingly undisturbed, but Randa was nowhere to be found. More than 15 years later, Randa’s family is still searching for answers.

EPISODE 446: Christopher Dietterick

In late May 2019, 41-year-old Christopher Dietterick quietly disappeared from Elkton, Maryland. About a week later, his ex-wife received a phone call from the University of Maryland Cancer Center in Baltimore; Chris hadn’t made it to his appointment for his cancer treatment on June 5. That’s when she contacted his sister, and they began to compare notes and try to find anyone who had seen or spoken to Chris. But there was no sign of Chris, so his sister, Sara, reported him missing. During the course of the investigation, they uncovered video surveillance footage of Chris at the Cecil County Health Department in Elkton around 11 AM on May 30, but that’s where his trail goes cold. Chris’ last outgoing call was that same evening at 5:05 PM, and his phone pinged in the town of Elkton. Five years later, Chris’ case remains a mystery.
