On the night of February 19th, 2005, Richard Petrone and Danielle Imbo met up on South Street in Philadelphia. According to Richard’s friend Anthony, who spent time with the pair that night, they all had a great time. Despite the couple recently breaking up and spending a few weeks apart, Richard and Danielle were getting along fine, Richard had his arm around Danielle, and they were spotted kissing. Just before midnight the pair decided to call it a night and head back to Richard’s truck so he could drive Danielle home. But they never made it. It has now been 17 years since they went missing and not a single trace of Danielle Imbo, Richard Petrone, or Richard’s truck has ever been found.
