This episode first aired on August 14, 2023. In Part 1 of Dorothy Goroshko’s story, you heard about her life from her sons, John and Rick. Their childhood was difficult even before Dorothy disappeared and grew even more complicated afterward. Despite Dorothy’s faults, Rick is determined to find her, and John believes he deserves answers. They lost their mother at a critical time in their lives and were left to wonder whether she had chosen to abandon them or if something tragic had happened. Neither possibility brought any comfort. After she went missing, the boys also had to take on adult responsibilities, working to keep a roof over their heads and food on the table.
On June 4, 1975, Dorothy left home to meet friends for drinks at The Penalty Box in Boston, Massachusetts. Her group of friends frequently spent time at that bar near North Station. They recalled that Dorothy stayed with them throughout the evening and remained until closing. They said their goodbyes, and no one knew where she went next. There were rumors of after-hours clubs in the area, but no one could confirm whether she had been at any of them that night. Could Dorothy have headed home and been involved in an accident? Could she have gone home with someone she met? Or was she planning to meet someone afterward? In recent years, one person has come forward claiming to have seen Dorothy late that night.
