Missing dad Albert Richardson's case gets deeper look as more vanish in same area | Missing

This week, our "Missing" series looks at the case of Albert "Peanut" Richardson, who vanished around Cane Island Loop in Kissimmee, Florida. Richardson was last seen in September and his family says it was unusual for him to go more than a few days without speaking to them. While he struggled with addiction, his family tells NewsNation's Marni Hughes that Richardson was a loving father, friend and family member.

The area where he vanished is known for missing cases, with the Osceola sheriff saying they had over 300 missing cases in 2025. Investigators are hoping to find Richardson and inform him how worried his family is for his safety. The sheriff's office tells NewsNation that technology could play a vital role in helping find him. Hughes spoke with Albert's older sister about the case, what the family wants to say to him and how his daughters are handling their father's disappearance.
