"I'll either see you again or never see you again" | The Disappearance of Daniel Robinson

Daniel Robinson disappeared from the desert in Buckeye, Arizona in June 2021.  He remains missing to this day. 

In the weeks leading up to his disappearance, Daniel had been acting unusually.  He visited his sister and didn't utter a word during the whole visit.  He spoke to his friends about wanting to rest and about miracles.  He met a woman named Katelyn (he was her instacart shopper) and became infatuated with her.  Their 'relationship' culminated in Katelyn asking Daniel to leave her alone.  The final message he sent to Katelyn was "The world can get better, but I’ll have to take all the time I can or we can, whatever to name it. I’ll either see you again or never see you again."

Daniel's Jeep was found wrecked a few weeks after he disappeared.  The clothes he had been wearing were found in the car, along with his keys, phone and wallet.  Investigators downloaded the black box from the car and found that someone had attempted to start it FORTY FOUR times following the last accident.  There had also been a prior accident that caused the airbags to deploy, and the car had been driven at least 11 miles following that crash.

During the search for Daniel, a human skull was found in the area near his Jeep.  This turned out to be unrelated to Daniel's case.

Daniel's family are calling for his case to be reclassified as an 'endangered missing person'.  This will enable them to further the investigation with warrants.
