💔 WHERE IS EDDIE DONNELLY? — 24 YEARS WITHOUT ANSWERS
On 25 March 2002, 53-year-old Edward “Eddie” Donnelly disappeared from Sacriston, County Durham.
Eddie was a former Sacriston Pit worker. To those who knew him, he was simply Eddie — a quiet, unassuming man who enjoyed reading and walking.
That day, Eddie was seen at around 12:45pm, walking alone along the A167 near the Red Lion pub at Plawsworth.
And then… he was gone.
His disappearance was later treated as a case involving his suspected killing, but Eddie has never been found.
đź’” Imagine waiting 24 years for someone you love to come home.
Imagine living with the questions.
Not knowing where they are.
Not being able to say goodbye.
Not having the answers your family deserves.
Someone, somewhere, may know what happened to Eddie.
Maybe you remember something from Sacriston, Plawsworth or the A167 around that time. Something that seemed unimportant then could potentially mean everything now.
🕯️ Please don’t let Eddie be forgotten.
