Almost 38,000 missing people are reported to police every year in Australia; that’s one every 14 minutes. The Missing exists to find them.

Mother of four Joanne Butterfield disappeared from far North Queensland in June, 1998, after visiting a friend. Three days later personal property belonging to Joanne including the dress she was wearing when she was last seen alive, was found near a railway track 150 kilometers away. This month Police renewed an appeal for information into Joanne's disappearance.

Please note: this is an older episode of The Missing from a few years ago. The audio quality is better in series 2 (from June 2023), but the content and story is just as important.

Someone, somewhere, knows something. Almost 38,000 missing people are reported to police every year in Australia; that’s one every 14 minutes. Some do not return home. For their families, it’s a never-ending nightmare. For police, the search for answers can sometimes last for decades.

The Missing exists to change this. Presented by former police officer Meni Caroutas, it aims to break new ground on these cold cases – because there’s always someone out there who knows what happened to a missing person.

The challenge is to find them.
