Missing Without a Trace: Where is Lauren...

Michelle Cuervo
About this episode

On June 3, 2011, 20-year-old Indiana University student Lauren Spierer vanished after a night out with friends in Bloomington, Indiana. Security footage shows her walking barefoot near her apartment around 4:30 a.m., but she never made it home—and was never seen again. Despite intense media coverage, police investigations, and countless tips, no arrests have been made, and her disappearance remains one of the most haunting unsolved cases in recent history.
