For years, this case was viewed through a single lens.

A man disappears. Assumptions are made.

But when you examine the timeline closely — the distance travelled, the missing vehicle, and evidence that surfaced years later — the story no longer fits as neatly as it once did.

In this episode of Vanished West, we revisit the disappearance of Peter James Guidera and ask whether the original explanation overlooked something crucial.

This is not about rewriting history.

It’s about questioning what we thought we understood.

In May 1992, fourteen-year-old Radina Marie Djukich disappeared from North Beach in Perth’s northern suburbs.

At first, her absence didn’t feel alarming. It felt temporary.

This episode explores Radina’s life before she went missing, the assumptions that shaped the early response, and how vulnerability can be quietly misread. It reflects on a cycle that continues today, as children and teenagers are still reported missing across Perth, some returning home, others never doing so.

In Part Two, the focus shifts away from what was left behind and toward what was happening quietly in the months before the disappearance.

This episode examines the beliefs, communications, and influences that shaped the decisions leading up to July 2007 — including the ideology at the centre of the group, the role of control and persuasion, and why this case cannot be explained as a simple disappearance or spontaneous act.

What emerges is a story where certainty replaced doubt, and preparation mattered more than escape.

This is Vanished West.
