On May 28th, 2022, 45-year-old Dana Smithers attended the Happy Hour Street Festival in Stroudsburg, Pennsylvania. The all-day festival was held only blocks away from the home she shares with her mother and her 6-year-old daughter. After the festival, Dana spent some time at home before heading out once again – this time, to visit a friend who lives only 3 houses away.

Just after 11pm, a ring camera captures footage of Dana leaving her friend’s home. Shockingly, this is the last time Dana was ever seen.

Did Dana return home that night, or did something happen along the way? Did she meet someone at the festival earlier that day? Why did the Stroud Area Regional Police wait 2 weeks to announce Dana's disappearance?
