Dateline NBC “Footprints in the Snow” 2/17/23 Episode Summary
Before they identify a suspect whose unusual behaviour in the wake of Jonelle Matthews, 12, disappearing in Colorado, police spend more than three decades unravelling the mystery surrounding her disappearance.
American 12-year-old Jonelle Matthews disappeared on December 20, 1984, near Greeley, Colorado.
Her remains were discovered on July 24, 2019, by workers erecting a new pipeline 24 kilometres (15 miles) away from her house.
After being apprehended in 2020, her killer Steven Pankey was given a life sentence on October 31, 2022. A Weld County jury found Pankey guilty of taking Jonelle hostage and killing her. He was given a 20- to life-in-prison sentence. He could be released as early as 2042, when he would be 91 years old.
The story from Greeley, Colorado is reported by Dennis Murphy.
The episode features interviews with Detectives Robert Cash and Mike Prill, Jonelle’s parents Jim and Gloria Matthews, Weld County D.A. Michael Rourke, journalist Ashley Fantz, and more.
