Daniel Robinson : Police seek public’s help finding missing Geologist
Daniel Robinson has been missing for nearly three months. Now his family is hoping that the Gabby Petito case will bring renewed interest in their son’s unsolved disappearance.

Daniel Robinson has been missing for nearly three months. Now, his family is hoping that the Gabby Petito case will bring renewed interest in their son’s unsolved disappearance.
The Search For Daniel Robinson
The 24-year-old geologist was last seen leaving a job site in the area of Sun Valley Parkway and Cactus Road in Buckeye, Arizona, at around 9:15 a.m. on June 23. He was reported missing that same day, and authorities launched a massive search.
Local police, along with outside agencies, covered more than 70 square miles using “UTVs, cadaver dogs and air support including a drone and a helicopter,” police said in a press release last week.
Daniel Robinson’s Car Found
On July 19, Robinson’s Jeep was found approximately four miles southwest of the job site where Robinson was last seen, police said.
According to investigators, the Jeep seemed to have rolled over and landed on its side.
The airbags were deployed and “initial evidence indicates Daniel was wearing a seatbelt at the time of the accident,” police said in a press release at the time. Robinson’s cell phone, wallet and keys were all found in the Jeep.
Then, just over a week later, “a human skull was located in an area south of where the Jeep had been recovered,” police said.
But authorities determined it was not Robinson’s skull.
Family Asks For Public’s Help
Robinson’s father, David Robinson, told KPHO-TV that although his son’s case is different from that of Petito — a 22-year-old woman who went missing while on a cross-country trip with her fiancé, Brian Laundrie, before her body was found Sunday in Wyoming — he is hopeful that the national attention given to Petito will renew interest in finding his son.
“I’ve been up all night, emailing, texting, reaching out to whoever,” David Robinson said. “Just seeing all of a sudden movement, it’s a good feeling.”
“Daniel has an innate passion for adventure and is known to travel inopportune moments. However, he always communicates with friends and family about his travel plans. It has been eight weeks with no leads or evidence towards Daniel’s disappearance. Initially, a missing person report has been filed that same evening on the day he was last seen and we have utilized all avenues that law enforcement could contribute.”
Robinson’s family is offering a $10,000 reward for information that helps find him. They have also set up GoFundMe that has raised over $56,000 to assist in costs associated with the search.
Anyone with information is asked to call the Buckeye Police Department non-emergency number 623-349-6400.
