Eventually investigators turned their attention to Anita’s former roommate, Nichole Rice, who stood trial and was acquitted of the crime. Blayne and Josh discuss their experiences reporting on acquittals and Blayne shares a podcast-exclusive clip of her interview with Anita’s sister on grief and moving on.

No Finish? What happened?

The story was enthralling, but I kept waiting for the end... which never came. Did they find Angela? What happened to the ignorant husband? 🤔

put together well as usual Dateline. great job

I found it odd that Bob Markham had a buddy run her name in the next day and FBI agent gotta hold of him to say he was investigating her disappearance.. Why wouldn't the FBI agent call her dad during the investigation of her disappearance?
