SOLVED: Closure for Jimmy's Family | SUV Recovered 19-years Later [Final Ep4]

Final Episode 4... Adventures with a Purpose used sonar equipment to locate a submerged Ford Explorer found Saturday in the murky waters of Darby Creek.
The Explorer and tags matched the entry on a missing person report from Dec. 4, 2003, for James "Jimmy" Amabile, solving a 19-year missing person case in Pennsylvania from December 04, 2003.
This 4 part series documents Adventures With Purpose's search for James Amabile, following the clues left behind, from a cell phone ping, last phone call, information from his family about insulin levels, and knowing that James woke up in a panic that he was late picking up his daughters from the babysitters, all playing a role in leading to the discovery of where James Amabile and his SUV had gone missing in the river 19-years earlier.

CASE DETAILS
Amabile, 38, vanished on the afternoon of Dec. 4, 2003, after leaving his home in Folsom, PA to go pick up his two daughters from a babysitter in his 2002 green Ford Explorer.
Jimmy had overslept and called the babysitter at 5:13 p.m. to say that he was running a few minutes late.
The call was routed through a cellphone tower at Morton Avenue and MacDade Boulevard.
The babysitter’s home was a short distance away, near Bullens Lane, but Amabile never arrived.
In the intervening years, investigators chased down any and all leads, though there was not much to go on.
Jimmy's credit cards, bank accounts, and cell phone remained unused.
Though he was an insulin-dependent diabetic, no prescriptions were ever filled in his name.
The Pennsylvania State Police conducted helicopter searches, looked into reports of sightings and unidentified bodies found in New York and New Jersey, even going to the Poconos after a Ford Explorer was found torched there.
Our thoughts and prayers go out to Jimmy's family during this difficult time.
Hug the ones you love for you never know when it might be the last time you see them.

That's honestly what I hate about the universe. 7 years ago (I ranch) every farmer knows everybody no matter how far the road is. My neighbor uncle gone missing. On the phone with somebody else who son was in a wreck with one brother. Which the brother passed away. Said "check the gyp hill" it's a true canyon. I called Brandon which would've been the nephew to the man missing. I told him what the neighbor of my neighbor missing said. "Check the hills aka a canyon" im 15 years old. Well driving threw one of the roads 3 miles away from. Brandon the nephew house. Sorry if this sounds confusing. Brandon found his truck stop there made phone calls. Sheriff's gone out. I drove out.(oklahoma. Roads roads.) You'll see 9 year olds driving.) I pull up start helping look on the 640 acres. Damn. 15 years old at the time. To this day I wish I didn't find him. I actually cried. I don't cry. I am a human Tank I've broke bones and ppl were in shocked by how calm I was. That was truly the most sad thing and we all started looking because of a neighbor who doesn't get a long with another neighbor because of the same generation of brothers death by the neighbor son Who pointed us to that area. The neighbor who accidently killed one of the 3 brothers. The last brother is my grandma age now and yeah. I feel bad for him cause he's the youngest abd out live everybody. Mom dad and the 2 older brothers.

The videos on this case may actually be the most profound that AWP has ever done... from the standpoint of the story itself, from the editing, and from Doug’s perspective and explanations. Tremendous, tremendous work. And I am soooo impressed with the local law enforcement, the fire department, the local dive team and of course, the crane company... from what i saw, they gave so much respect to AWP and a lot of that had to do with how Doug carefully relayed the professional stance and experience of AWP to the officials.

[@staz6530]

Beautifully said!

[@sheryl5252]

i agree completely! you have an amazing way with words! there was true respect between all the 'agencies' there, including the family members who reached out to AWP. it was so obvious in all the conversations and in the teamwork we saw. i have seen some videos where the LE were beyond rude and not at all professional and not willing to give respect to the experience of this team. i think that with doug having the background in the towing industry, it really brings another level of experience to the team and to the recovery process. a definite asset. i give big kudoo's to the photographers/editors of this video.

Based on what I see and hear about the piling not being driven into the ground, this makes me think that a total inspection of everything that was done by the company that installed these pilings should be reviewed. It looks like this might’ve been a half assed job.

[@ShortOrderCook]

There are certainly some lessons to be learnt here, but now I hope that the word spreads in the industry - if there's a vehicle found in an underwater construction project - call Adventures with Purpose. They might just bring someone home.

[@KMcKee-qn6bo]

Yeah... agreeing with all of you. They must have been aware that something was severely ‘off’ regarding that piling.... they would have had to cut off a significantly greater length compared to the other pilings when they topped them all off. There had to be an extra 12 to 15 feet of height. Somebody made a crass and unprofessional decision to shortcut things like that. Somebody made the decision to not even check out the underwater situation.

[@yt650]

@@KMcKee-qn6bo With the amount of workers involved in that pier, and the knowledge that they had, I suspect they may have realized there was a car or something down there. If they didn’t look and didn’t know, then if it was a job that was bid and it probably was because it is a municipal structure, two things come to mind. The first thing is it was a bid, this was a contract, the second thing is if they said anything and the car had to be removed they would be there a long time compared to what they had contracted for. If I had the authority, I would have the entire structure inspected underwater. To me there was no oversight, that means there was no one there checking everything that was done so it met the specifications.

[@shaneanderson1229]

This raises the point that whatever job you do, I’d something seems off SAY SOMETHING. Trust your gut, and speak up. Nobody that matters will be upset about a little extra time to make sure it’s done right, and so often catastrophes happen because nobody says anything.

Thoughts and prayers to Jimmy's family/loved ones/friends.

Doug, I am so very humbled by this video, your leadership skills and your integrity shine through. I feel such pride in watching you, making the right decisions in such difficult conditions and keeping calm. I have watched you grow under Jarod's help, but this video shows me that you are more than capable of making the right decisions on your own. Much respect for you Doug, you are a good man !!!!

This by far was one of the best episodes of the examples of community!! Bless everyone’s heart involved in bringing this man home & his family answers!! Shame on the company that wanted money to help with the recovery.. To the company that did offer their services free of charge, bless you for your heartfelt support!! As usual your folks work in giving loved ones answers & closer to these heartbreaking stories is beautiful!!

This is a half hour from me. My good friend lives in Prospect Park, ten minutes from where he was found. You never think it’s going to hit so close to home until it does. Thank you for everything you do AWP❤️

Still blown away that the company that put that pylon in is still in business and after getting a call knowing that a car that someone died in and was missing for almost 20 years was stuck underwater pinned under one of those pylons and instead of offering to help they were immediately trying to get a huge payday. That company clearly doesn't care about the community there at all.

Amen...that company should be put out of its greedy money hungry business...that almighty dollar,sickening...

[@quinnleydean8335]

@@wandastevens3183 I wish they would have name-dropped that company because that is an absolutely disgusting business practice and they deserve to go out of business for it.

I don't think they said it was the same company, only a company they reach out to, the old company could be well out of business. If it was the old company, only saying "you could be liable for destruction of evidence" would have had them right on the dock the same second.

[@milliekirby2073]

Agree

[@millisagable3018]

That company should be sued by the damn family and put out of business

Doug is such a valuable asset to this team! His knowledge with rigging and former experience working with a tow trucking company makes the process so much smoother! Great work from everyone involved here! You all did such amazing work for that family! From the company that owns the crane to the township who seriously welcomed you guys and your assistance was so great to see!

Wow, this one got to my heart bad. Amazing work by Doug and his crew and everyone involved. These guys need a tv show. It's 3am and I just couldn't go to bed without finishing all 3 episodes.
