SELLEST OSAST
In this solo Dee-Brief, Dee dives into the haunting and unresolved disappearance of Amy Fitzpatrick, a 15-year-old Irish girl who vanished without a trace from Spain’s Costa del Sol.
On New Year’s Day 2008, Amy left a friend’s house for what should have been a short, 10-minute walk home. She never made it.
What follows is a case filled with unanswered questions, early investigative missteps, and a family left searching for answers for over a decade. Despite extensive searches involving helicopters, sniffer dogs, and international police cooperation, Amy has never been found.
