A Massive Hunt
“I was a little scared. I didn’t think they’d find him alive,” Yanisko admitted in an interview with The Times-Tribune sometime in April 2017.

Worried Locals
Message boards across Pennsylvanian highways displayed information about the missing federal judge. “I’m shocked. I’m very upset because he’s a great man and we don’t want anything happening to him,” commented Georgia Fisch, a local from Madison Township.
She had known Judge Kosik for many years, like a lot of people in the region did. She herself went on a personal search mission by driving around on Thursday to see if she would find any leads about his whereabouts. “I’ve gone up the mountain, Aston Mountain, checking the back roads and stuff, just seeing if he made a wrong turn somewhere and got lost!”
