Madalina Cojocari, an 11-year-old girl from Cornelius, North Carolina, was last seen publicly on November 21, 2022, when she got off her school bus near her home. Her disappearance was reported on December 15, 2022, by her mother, Diana Cojocari, after several weeks of inquiries from Madalina's school about her absence.

Diana Cojocari and her husband, Christopher Palmiter, were both arrested for failing to report Madalina's disappearance in a timely manner. Diana claimed she last saw Madalina on the night of November 23, 2022, but didn't report her missing immediately due to concerns about potential conflict with Palmiter. She stated that Palmiter left for Michigan the next morning and returned on November 26, 2022. Both parents have insisted they do not know Madalina's whereabouts.

Investigations revealed that during the period Madalina was missing, Diana took a trip to the mountains of North Carolina and sent a text message suggesting she was with Madalina. There were also possible sightings of Madalina and a man believed to be her relative at various locations, but these have not been confirmed as the last verifiable sighting remains when she got off the school bus on November 21.

Diana Cojocari was released from jail in May 2024 after pleading guilty to the charge of failing to report her daughter's disappearance. The search for Madalina continues, with significant efforts from law enforcement agencies including the FBI.


In this episode, we head back down to North Carolina to get an update on Madalina Cojocari and her mother Diana, who is now considered a suspect in her disappearance.
