About this episode
For the final episode of Detective Perspective for 2024, we wanted to give everyone a few updates in two cases we covered this year: The case of Rachel Hansen, and the disappearance of Madalina Cojocari.
At around 2:00 A.M. on June 4, 2022, a gunman entered Rachel Hansen’s apartment, located at 1900 South Coronado Road in Gilbert, Arizona, and shot her once while she was sleeping.
Anyone with information in Rachel’s murder should leave an anonymous tip by calling Silent Witness at 480-WITNESS. There is a $15,000 reward available.
The last official sighting of Madalina Cojocari was on November 21, 2022, when she was seen getting off the school bus near her house, located at 18413 Victoria Bay Drive in Cornelius, North Carolina.
Madalina is white, with brown hair and brown eyes. At the time of her disappearance, she weighed 90 pounds and stood at 4’10”. She was last seen wearing jeans, pink, purple and white Adidas shoes, and a white t-shirt and jacket.
If you have any information concerning the whereabouts of Madalina Cojocari, please contact the Cornelius Police Department at (704) 892-7773. You can also contact your local FBI office or you can submit a tip online at tips.fbi.gov.
