DiDonato’s family filed a missing persons report after she missed multiple flights and could not be reached for days. Initially, they believed she was in Philadelphia, where she had planned to travel before heading home to Florida. However, investigators later found records of her staying at a Las Vegas hotel last week.
Her sister, Janae DiDonato, told NBC News, “She was supposed to fly from Philadelphia to Florida, but she never got on that flight. Then we found out she was in Vegas, which was a complete shock because no one knew she had planned to go there.”
