Search continues for Cassandra Gross, local mother missing for nearly 2 years

UNITY TOWNSHIP, Pa. — The search for Cassandra Gross continues nearly two years after she last seen be her friends and family.

Gross disappeared from her Latrobe home in April 2018. About 24 hours after she was last seen, her burned-out car was discovered near Twin Lakes Park in Hempfield.

This week, a forensic anthropology team comprised of students and staff from Seton Hill University was joined by state police to search along the train tracks in Unity Township.

Previously, state police have searched the properties of an estranged boyfriend, Thomas Stanko, on both Macey Road and White Fence Lane next to Unity Cemetery.

Stanko is in jail on charges unrelated to her disappearance.

Cassandra Gross has legally been declared dead as a homicide victim and the case remains open.
