At 20 years old, Desiree Reid was doing her best to navigate the tumultuous waters of adulthood. She was on the right track and doing well, and then, she vanished. For 20 years her family has not given up hope of finding her, but the mystery endures: Where is Desiree Reid?
On January 28 2000, Desiree Reid vanished without a trace.
For 20 years since then, her family has held out hope that Desiree will return – but with each missed family event and every painful year that passes, that hope has dimmed.
In episode 42 of True Crime South Africa, we delve into this baffling case and discuss the sad reality that in the eyes of the authorities, and some members of the public, certain victims seem to be less worthy of justice than others.
