On May 22, 1989, 23-year-old Dawn Marie Mozino finished her shift as a hostess in the nutrition department at Bryn Mawr Hospital and never arrived home in Wayne after she was expected to take public transportation. Dawn lived with her mother and sister, kept her own bank account and phone line, and was active in the Special Olympics. Her family reported her missing within hours because it was highly out of character for someone described as independent and reliable.

Investigation attention turned quickly to former co-worker Thomas W. Hawkins Jr., after a witness reported seeing Dawn with him shortly before she vanished. Hawkins had a prior conviction for the murder of a teenage girl and was later convicted of the rape and murder of his niece, but he denied involvement in Dawn’s disappearance and was never charged in her case. Dawn’s diary, found after she disappeared, mentioned personal turmoil and two possible love triangles, including an ex-boyfriend and a friend’s affair, which investigators also considered.

Radnor Township Police have continued to pursue leads and have used tools such as DNA analysis over the years, but the case remains unsolved. If anyone knew Dawn, her routines, or saw her on May 22, 1989, please share information that could help answer what happened to her?
