Dorothy And Danielle Pitcher The Vanished podcast
The Vanished Podcast just did an episode on this case, and the host was able to get their hands on the official casefile. A LOT of shocking information is discussed. This is going to be a LONG post so bear with me.
The neighbor, Danny Morris the man who told the police they saw the pair going to the store, became a suspect after someone told police in 2002 told that Danny had a young blonde girl at his house who he was holding against her will. Police reinterviewed the man in 2009 and he told the police that two men picked the Pitcher's up on the highway and took them to a property owned by the Morris family, the man states he was at the residence that day and stated he saw the women there and asked who they were, one of the men said that Danielle was his girlfriend. He told police Danielle was kept for a period of time before she was murdered and buried in basement on a house on the property to which a concrete slab was poured over the area.
As horrible as this is, this is not the only missing person that is possibly tied the Morris family. The man said that a couple years prior to the Pitcher's disappearance Danny went to Texas and picked up a young girl who was a runaway. He allegedly took her back to his property where she was held captive for a period of time, she was also murdered and buried under another concrete slab. The man stated he personally saw this girl at the Morris property and thought she was 15 or 16 with blonde shoulder length hair. He says that she was kept there for the Morris family to rape. This includes Danny, his brother Johnny and their father Richard who was a sex offender. John allegedly told the man that his mother tried to help the girl escape and was beaten by Danny when he found out. The mother moved out of state shortly after.
Investigators were also able to identify a possible victim of the mystery girl from Texas, her name is Deanna Michelle Merryfield missing from Killeen, TX since July 22, 1990. Deanna was last seen by her sister getting into a car driven by two men. She told her she was going to Arizona with them ''to make lots of money'' Also a TxDPS analyst discovered that Deanna had an aunt that lived in Arizona near the Morris family in 1990 and remembers that a slim blonde girl named ''Deena'' was living on the Morris property. Deanna's aunt also stated she remembered Danny's mother being beaten and abused for trying to help this girl.
