I'm a father, I'm a brother, I'm a husband, I'm a son. It's very hard not to see the human side, the human impact on the two families. It keeps me motivated.

Back then, everybody was still on VCRs that they were taping over after two weeks or 30 days. Streetlight cameras, none of that existed back then. You know, the iPhones weren't a thing. So it was a little different animal.

We have a lot more tools available to us now than we did back then.

Nobody checks into a hospital. Neither one of them would have left their children. They wouldn't just have run away.

There was no activity on their credit cards or on their phones. The people who did it made two people in a truck disappear. That's a clean crime. And it could have been clean by accident, it could have been clean by luck, or it could have been clean by design. So it was clear that something bad happened pretty much off the start.

Each year at the anniversary, we put something out, and without fail, we always get tips, call-ins, and more over the past few years, I've been pretty consistent. So it's good. It keeps it out in the public's eye.

One of the important directions that law enforcement had to take was to determine the history between Danielle and Richard. When you look deep into anybody's background, you're going to be digging up stuff. And we found some angles that were of interest to us.

We have several working theories. We've done a number of searches in different areas. We have a lot of folks that we've talked to. We have statements, phone records. I probably have the silver bullet and all of that stuff. I need somebody to tie it together. This needs to get solved.

My dad was an old Hoover guy. He was an old FBI agent. So I grew up around that. I got in Philly in February of 97, and I've been in Philly pretty much my whole career.

It wasn't just an accident and driving off a bridge. A truck and two people just don't disappear. What I do know is that the people who are involved had to have the means to get rid of two bodies and a truck in a very quick amount of time. That means that they did it before or they had access to those circles. So I don't have the truck and I don't have the bodies.

What I did uncover is that both were good people. A lot of people cared for them. Danielle was very close to her mom and her brother, and Rich was very close to both his parents and all his siblings, and had a child that he was raising. Both families are still extremely distraught. It's very emotional for them. as emotional today as it was when I first met them.

Every investigator, every detective has that white whale that hangs over the head. And in this particular case where you don't get an answer, that just crushes people's souls and it's tough. So the case is very much open and hopefully we make an arrest.

Everybody that's working on this case, everybody that has worked on this case, wants this to get out in the public and wants people to call in. And that's why I'm very thankful for you guys.

I've gotten confessions from folks because it was chewing them up on the inside. Not all folks that do illegal activity are evil folks. A lot of them have consciences and kids and families of their own, and eventually it wears on them.
