2Speaker 2
00:01.84 – 00:06.76

The volunteers are marching off for our second large area search.

3Speaker 3
00:08.54 – 00:11.92

They are members of a club no one wants to join.

6Speaker 6
00:12.50 – 00:16.80

It only takes an instant for your entire world to change.

3Speaker 3
00:17.08 – 00:19.90

We're talking about the families of missing persons.

5Speaker 5
00:20.70 – 00:25.58

Sometimes I'll hear music that'll make me think about him and, you know, the tears just

00:25.58 – 00:25.96

flow.

00:26.52 – 00:28.34

I really miss him.

3Speaker 3
00:29.48 – 00:33.14

Now, maybe you can help bring their loved ones home.

00:33.82 – 00:37.22

In each episode, we'll focus on one missing person's case.

00:38.00 – 00:42.94

Listen closely, because one small detail could make all the difference.

2Speaker 2
00:43.26 – 00:49.82

They described a mid-teen Native American female with dark wavy hair with either blonde

00:49.82 – 00:51.26

or orange highlights in it.

00:51.72 – 00:58.10

They saw somebody on the passenger side of the vehicle before it started rolling unoccupied

00:58.10 – 00:59.08

across the freeway.

4Speaker 4
00:59.78 – 01:03.68

They were just a couple blocks from the river, and Beth used to go down to the river and

01:03.68 – 01:04.74

play with her siblings.

3Speaker 3
01:05.64 – 01:10.08

If you think you know something important, investigators want to hear from you.

1Speaker 1
01:10.54 – 01:12.32

Somebody somewhere knows what happened.

01:12.74 – 01:15.26

It's still not too late to come to the sheriff's office.

01:15.66 – 01:16.36

Tell what you know.

3Speaker 3
01:16.92 – 01:22.90

And for the family of a toddler who went missing decades ago, one hope is that their missing

01:22.90 – 01:25.34

person might be you.

6Speaker 6
01:26.34 – 01:33.00

If she was taken to be someone else's child, she would have to suspect that and go looking

01:33.00 – 01:33.94

for her family.

01:35.06 – 01:36.92

Or she might hear a podcast like this.
