Adventures With Purpose | A Mother's Desperate Search for Answers 1-Year Later @AdventuresWithPurpose | Uploaded October 2024 | Updated October 2024, 1 hour ago.
It’s been a year since the haunting discovery of Jacob Vanzant. What began as a mission to bring peace and answers to his loved ones has turned into an ongoing pursuit of closure and answers.
Today, we return to the very spot where we found Jacob’s submerged vehicle and where the tragic story of his disappearance unfolded. His mother, Joanna, joins us and seeks further clarity as we scan the waters in hopes of finding additional answers hidden beneath the surface.
The case of Jacob Vanzant began one fateful evening when he vanished without a trace. Jacob, a beloved son, and friend, was last seen in February 2023, leaving a restaurant in Lodi, California. Despite weeks of search efforts by local authorities and volunteers, no sign of Jacob or his vehicle surfaced. His sudden disappearance left everyone baffled, and the weight of uncertainty wore heavily on his family, especially his mother, Joanna.
For months, Jacob's loved ones held on to the faint hope that he might still be out there somewhere, alive and waiting to come home. But as time passed, the hope of a happy reunion grew dim. It wasn't until our team took on the challenge that new light was shed on this heart-wrenching case. With the use of advanced sonar technology, we scoured the waters of the Sacramento-San Joaquin Delta, a place that had been previously searched but was still shrouded in mystery.
After countless hours of navigating murky waters, we made the discovery that would change the course of the investigation forever. There, deep below the surface, we found Jacob's vehicle submerged—an eerie and tragic confirmation of the family's worst fears. It was a moment of both profound sorrow and bitter closure. The realization that Jacob had been there all along was almost too much to bear.
In that moment, Joanna’s world was shattered, but it also marked the beginning of her journey toward understanding. Our team helped bring Jacob home, but many questions remained. How did the vehicle end up there? What other vehicles might still be hidden beneath these waters, relics of other tragic accidents or unresolved cases?
This return to the scene marks a new chapter in Jacob’s story. Today, we reunite with Joanna, who has been an enduring symbol of strength throughout this difficult year. With renewed determination, we scan the waters once more, this time to identify the other vehicles that lie beneath, to uncover any other stories waiting to be told, and perhaps, to bring closure to more families like Joanna’s.
As we embark on this emotional journey with her, we reflect on the grim realities of this work. The waters we search hold secrets—secrets that have kept families like Joanna’s in limbo for too long. These submerged vehicles are not just rusting metal; they represent lives lost, mysteries unresolved, and stories that deserve to be told. Our goal is to identify and retrieve these vehicles, providing further answers to those who have spent years searching for loved ones who vanished without a trace.
"This search is about more than just finding vehicles; it's about bringing answers and closure to families who have lived in uncertainty for far too long. When we found Jacob a year ago, it was a moment of heartbreak but also the first step toward healing for Joanna and her family. Returning here today, we're not just searching the waters; we're continuing a journey to uncover the truth and ensure that no story remains hidden beneath the surface." – Jared Leisek, Founder of Adventures With Purpose
Joanna’s presence on this return trip serves as a powerful reminder of why we do what we do. The pain of losing a loved one is immeasurable, but the agony of not knowing their fate is even worse. Our team’s mission is to bring clarity, resolution, and, if possible, closure to families like hers.
