The Trail Went Cold The Trail Went Cold - Episode 382 - Danielle Imbo and Richard Petrone
February 19, 2005. Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. 34-year old Danielle Imbo meets up with her on-again-off-again boyfriend, 35-year old Richard Petrone, and they spend the evening hanging out at a downtown bar. Richard says that he is planning to drive Danielle home, but after leaving together in Richard’s pick-up truck, they vanish without a trace. Three years later, the FBI announces they are investigating the possibility that the couple were the victims of a murder-for-hire plot, but they do not name any potential suspects and no trace of Danielle, Richard or the truck are ever found. Could the couple have disappeared when they accidentally drove into a body of water, or did foul play actually take place? On this week’s episode of “The Trail Went Cold”, we explore the unsolved disappearances of Danielle Imbo and Richard Petrone, one of the most perplexing missing persons cases of the modern era.
