I'm Hey, everyone, welcome back to Detective Perspective.

My name is Derek Lavasser.

I'm a licensed private investigator and former police detective.

And each week I'll be covering an unsolved case and story format.

I'll then give you my perspective on the investigation

and provide contact information for the individuals

or organizations connected to the case

so that if you have any tips, you can contact them directly

and maybe you can help solve a case.

So if you're someone who's interested in true crime

specifically unsolved cases,

and you would like to hear my opinion on those

investigations, please consider subscribing whether you're watching on YouTube or listening on

Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or whatever platform you use. As you may have noticed, today's episode

didn't have a teaser, and that's because I wanted to do something a little different for the

final episode of 2024. Instead of following our usual format, I wanted to give you an update on two

cases we covered earlier this year, Rachel Hansen, a 19-year-old woman who was murdered in June of

2022, and Madalina Kojikari, an 11-year-old girl who went missing in November of 2022.

Now, before diving into these updates, I wanted to take a moment to reflect on what has been my first full year hosting detective perspective.

And it has had its ups and downs, its peaks and valleys.

But overall, I would consider this year a huge success.

We kicked out 49 episodes in 2024.
