The Missing Danielle Drozdowski

The Missing
Danielle Marie Drozdowski
Wilkes-Barre, Pennsylvania

Danielle Marie Drozdowski was 25 years old when she vanished sometime between May and August of 2014 in Wilkes-Barre Pennsylvania around the Carey Avenue and Susquehanna Street area where she lived. At one point she was involved with a gang called the TF Mafia or the Together Forever Mafia from Brooklyn, New York. This gang was involved in heroin and cocaine trafficking and child sex trafficking. Danielle worked as a drug mule for the gang. She was arrested for drug trafficking and cooperated with police. She pleaded guilty in November 2012 to a single count of conspiring to traffic 280 grams of crack cocaine.
Somewhere along the way, Danielle became a confidential police informant. Because of this, she was let off on a lesser sentence than the suggested 5 years in prison, but was instead sentenced to time served and probation. The TF Mafia got wind of this and decided that Danielle was a “snitch,” so they abducted her, beat her, raped her, and set her on fire. She needed reconstructive surgery to recover.
She was arrested for retail theft and disorderly conduct on May 10th, 2014 and she attended a preliminary hearing for that charge on May 20th. In June, she was arrested again and appeared in court. She was released with orders that she stay living at a women’s shelter called Ruth’s Place to go to a substance abuse program.
She was due to testify in front of a grand jury in August 2014, but she did not arrive at the courthouse and has not been heard from since. Her family reported her missing in April of 2015. The FBI became involved and offered a reward for information regarding her whereabouts. Her last post on Facebook was back in March 2014.
She is a white female with red/auburn hair and blue eyes, standing at 5’2” and weighing between 120-165 lbs at the time. Danielle suffers from bipolar disorder, depression and anxiety. Dating back to a young age, she has a history of drug and alcohol addiction. She has several scars on her face, and she also has several tattoos, on her hands, her left arm and on the back of her neck. Pictures below.

Since Danielle’s disappearance, several TF Mafia members have been sent to prison, including Danielle’s boyfriend Hasan Woods, who was also in the gang and the reason she was associated with the gang in the first place. Hasan has been in prison since February of 2023 with a 10 year sentence.
Family members of Danielle hoped that she was in the Witness Protection Program, but the PA State Police have denied it.
