Final Episode 4… Adventures with a Purpose used sonar equipment to locate a submerged Ford Explorer found Saturday in the murky waters of Darby Creek.
The Explorer and tags matched the entry on a missing person report from Dec. 4, 2003, for James “Jimmy” Amabile, solving a 19-year missing person case in Pennsylvania from December 04, 2003.
This 4 part series documents Adventures With Purpose’s search for James Amabile, following the clues left behind, from a cell phone ping, last phone call, information from his family about insulin levels, and knowing that James woke up in a panic that he was late picking up his daughters from the babysitters, all playing a role in leading to the discovery of where James Amabile and his SUV had gone missing in the river 19-years earlier.

CASE DETAILS
Amabile, 38, vanished on the afternoon of Dec. 4, 2003, after leaving his home in Folsom, PA to go pick up his two daughters from a babysitter in his 2002 green Ford Explorer.
Jimmy had overslept and called the babysitter at 5:13 p.m. to say that he was running a few minutes late.
The call was routed through a cellphone tower at Morton Avenue and MacDade Boulevard.
The babysitter’s home was a short distance away, near Bullens Lane, but Amabile never arrived.
In the intervening years, investigators chased down any and all leads, though there was not much to go on.
Jimmy’s credit cards, bank accounts, and cell phone remained unused.
Though he was an insulin-dependent diabetic, no prescriptions were ever filled in his name.
The Pennsylvania State Police conducted helicopter searches, looked into reports of sightings and unidentified bodies found in New York and New Jersey, even going to the Poconos after a Ford Explorer was found torched there.
Our thoughts and prayers go out to Jimmy’s family during this difficult time.
Hug the ones you love for you never know when it might be the last time you see them.

You really went above and beyond for this case! How complex this was. You guys are great!
You guys made for this
Considering the view at 26:49 how are they thinking he got in the river?? Like it doesn't appear he just drove off the road
I cannot see the barge company getting away with how they left that pylon. Like all of their work needs to be assessed cause that's a major safety hazard they signed off on. Take a shortcut one and you're gonna do it again
Doug God has Blessed you with skill and knowledge.
Amazing 3 part series. ðŸ™ðŸ™ðŸ™ðŸ‘ðŸ‘ðŸ‘â¤ï¸â¤ï¸â¤ï¸
I still can't believe they drilled the pylon through the hood into the engine block. What are the odds of that? I bet Jimmy was like hey what the hell are you doing to my car!
These recoveries are awesome to watch aside from the tragic side
ðŸ™ðŸ¼ðŸ•Šâ™¥ï¸ðŸ•ŠðŸŒ¹Rest In Peace Jimmy. God Bless AWP

30:32 don’t ever take your stabilizing hand off of a chainsaw…unless you WANT to risk mutilating your face in half.
Doug is amazing. Edited to add: Keep in mind it's 20 degrees.
Absolutely fantastic recovery .x
I’m so proud of you Dougâ£ï¸ I watched in awe the whole operation you orchestrated and lead. As the wrecker drove away I just pictured James with a smile on his face waving to you with a tear running down his cheek. You’re a rare soul buddy! This world needs more people like youâ£ï¸
Thanks to everyone involved that worked so well together! The community and police,firefighters and the crane company! It’s so refreshing to see the egos put aside to cooperate in bringing the family some peace 😊🇨🇦
It’s good for the family to know he didn’t just leave them! Thanks for helping!
The “You’d be so proud of them.†Got me.
You's do great work love from Dublin Ireland,â¤ï¸â¤ï¸
WOW! Is there ANYTHING Doug can't do? Mind-blowing!! Thanks for NEVER QUITTING!
You guys are awesome! So professional and respectful. It’s a pleasure to support your cause.
This entire collaborative effort was absolutely humbling. Humans working together for the greater good. May god bless you all abundantly.
That arial shot is insane! I can't believe that crane can even hold up the weight of its own boom up like that!
Thank you for bringing all of the lost souls home. You are a team of amazing angels 😇
How did the surveyors for the new dock, miss a car underwater, and attempt to drive a pylon through something that solid. Or didn't they bother to survey the area first 🙁
Hope the name of the barge company was spread around for wanting an astronomical fee when they are the ones who drlled thru the vehicle.
God bless Pro Crane
Shit, Doug, you’re ok â¤ï¸
good job to everyone involved and prayers to the family
God bless each and everyone bringing Jimmy back home to his families and Loved Ones my Heroes Forever Thank You All
The dude that chuckled at 8:28 and then looked around to see if anyone else did, my man 🤣
Pro Cranes & their crew ROCKS!!!
I used to use the insulin pump, but it almost killed me too — many times. It's a life saver and a life taker depending on whatever's going on with your blood sugar. The pump does deliver insulin continuously and sometimes you get so LOW that you can't turn it off. In fact, a person can have seizures and be so confused that they don't know who they are. This was my personal experience with the device. I had to call the ambulance many different times. I'm amazed that I made it to where I am today. I should be dead. Instead, I received a pancreas transplant. Now, I'm no longer diabetic. Rest in peace, Jimmy. I could easily have been un the same situation. What a good man and a loved father.
Doug, you are always so humble and appreciative as well as respectful to the family and communities you work with. You and your team are honorable. I sometimes expect you to do a group prayer before you dive.
Thank you and your team for everything you do. â¤ðŸ˜Šâ¤
Thats so awesome to see everyone Volunteer their service to help the family bring their loved one home. America job everyone involved. Much love, sending prayers up for Jimmy's family and friends ðŸ™
there's a 14 km stretch along the trent river between trenton and frankford ontario . there is a major highways on both sides . its a main route for people going to work a lot is shift work , over the years there have been numerous cars go in , on that i recall my parents talking about when i was a kid was this young girl that went in. she drowned , the pulled car out by front and her body was in the back window they sat she looked liked she was screaming and trying to claw out. they towed the car to wherever they took it untarped for everyone to see.this was in the seventies . I also remember an elderly man having a heart attack in a canadian tire parking lot . there was no barrier and he drove right into trent river . this was downtown and 100s of people gathered around and again they never tarped anything this was also in the seventies. . if this happened today it would be national news , were people less sensitive back then?
Wonderful
RIP Jimmy
Y'all are the best if the best! ðŸ™ðŸ™ðŸ™ðŸ™ðŸ™ for continued success, stamina and blessings, julie
Doug has zero ego and it is so refreshing. So well doneâ¤ï¸
OH Shit moment!
Incredible work Doug & the Team. The most complex I've watched of your recoveries so far… and to all the people involved who offered their services for nothing without a second thought, gives faith back to the human race. Thank you for all that AWP do unconditionally to bring closure to the people left behind with so many unanswered questions in tragedies like these, & to bring awareness to the fact that so much more can be done with regard to missing persons in these types of circumstancesâ¤ðŸ¤
