Dateline: Missing in America is returning for its fourth season, and a collection of missing persons cases could use your help.
The award-winning original Dateline NBC podcast will again focus on the mysterious disappearances of six individuals. Relatives, friends, and law enforcement join Dateline host Josh Mankiewicz to unpack the head-scratching details with only one question at the forefront: Where is their missing loved one?
“I will not stop,” one guest told Mankiewicz.
One stunning detail of the Season 4 trailer had the veteran Dateline correspondent question whether he actually encountered one of the missing women featured in the podcast.
“I had a strong sense when I heard her name that I had met your mom,” he told one guest.
“Wow,” the other responded.
Dateline: Missing in America is a podcast that serves as an audio extension of the Dateline digital series of the same name.
The original initiative began in December 2013, when Dateline started posting about missing persons brought to its attention by followers on social media. Several of the cases wound up being solved and prompted in-depth episodes on Dateline.
Of the more than 570 missing persons highlighted in the series since the online project began, nearly half remain missing today, including those featured in this new season.
Season 4 of the Dateline: Missing in America podcast kicks off on Tuesday, June 10, 2025. New episodes air every Tuesday for six unmissable episodes, concluding on Tuesday, July 15.
Those featured in Season 4 of Dateline: Missing in America include the following:
Danielle Lopez, 37, who was believed to be camping in New Jersey when she disappeared in 2024; Roy Whited, 64, a and real estate agent last seen visiting clients in his Tennessee town; Tiffany Reid, 16, who disappeared in New Mexico in 2004 while walking to school; Teekah Lewis, just 2 when likely abducted from a Tacoma, Washington bowling alley in 1999; Nancy Snow, 44, a Republican National Committee employee who vanished just after the 1980 presidential election; and Sophie Reeder, 15, whom cameras captured in 2017 walking near her Fort Lauderdale home in the middle of the night, never to return.
“The not knowing is the hardest part,” one of their loved ones said in the recent trailer.
Perhaps listeners — like yourself — can help relatives, friends, and law enforcement agencies get closer to finding those Missing in America.
