Nancy Grace’s goal: Find 50 people in 50 days
Nancy Grace's new show, "Nancy Grace: America's Missing," debuts tonight on HLN.
Nancy is dedicated to finding missing persons in the United States. The program, which relies heavily upon audience participation, urges viewers to find people as well as bring attention to victims whose stories never made it to the airwaves.
Nancy and her team are utilizing social media, CNN iReport, phone lines and their show to achieve the goal of finding 50 people in 50 days.
Tonight’s debut program will feature the case of Lindsey Baum, a 10-year-old girl from Washington state who went missing in 2009 as she walked home from a friend’s house.
CNN spoke to Nancy just prior to the show’s live premiere.
CNN: What inspired you to focus your show solely on missing persons?
Nancy Grace: Well, you’re in the news business just like us - although I don’t really think of myself that way, I think of myself more as a prosecutor - and our news cycle chews somebody and spits them out every 24 hours. And I get it. I’m not trashing that because there’s more news to report that people want to know, need to know and should know.
I understand that you can’t stay with a case forever. You’ve got to pick up and move on to the next group of people that need your help. But this is a real chance to go back and pick up those pieces and put them back together again.
When I was prosecuting, I got the satisfaction of being called in on a crime scene, helping to analyze and process the scene, investigate it, take it to the grand jury… after conviction, take it myself to an appeals court and argue it. I could see the end. I would take the case to fruition.
We don’t get to do that. We cover cases as long as there’s news, and when there’s not news anymore, we move on to cases that have news, more people that need to be found. Many of them stick in my mind and in my heart; and my EP [Executive Producer], Dean Sicoli, same way. And my staff, same way. We saw this as an opportunity to try and go back and look at the cases that remain unsolved and try again.
CNN: Does each installment of "America's Missing" focus on one missing person?
Grace: Yes, exactly. 50 people in 50 nights.
CNN: Are you featuring both missing children and adults, male and female?
Grace: Oh yes. We’re across the board.
CNN: Did the missing persons have to have gone missing recently, or is there no timeframe?
Grace: Absolutely no timeframe. In fact, tonight we may lead off with the case of a female child who’s just gone missing and then go into the main story that we’re covering just so we can get it out there.
CNN: Do you think the show's "beat the clock" sort of mentality will stir up a sense of urgency regarding cases that otherwise may have gone forgotten?
Grace: We hope so. That’s our goal.
CNN: If someone has a loved one who is missing, what can they do to get their story out there?
Grace: They can contact us. That’s actually how we found out about many of these cases. Just e-mail me or call the show [1-877-NANCY-01]. If people have cases, or know of cases, that no one’s covering - we’ll cover them.
CNN: What would you say to someone with a missing friend or family member who has lost all hope of finding their loved one either because too much time has passed or due to grim statistics?
Grace: I always use examples; for instance, Elizabeth Smart. Also, in a case that we covered recently, a little girl got taken along the eastern seaboard but a viewer saw her in California with her abductor who was panhandling in front of a 7-11. A woman called in and sure enough it was her [the missing girl]. She was found alive! It does happen!
And I would also tell anyone: Don’t just rely on law enforcement. They’re just as overloaded as everybody else in this world. They’re just as swamped. You get out there, you make the difference.
And, frankly, what’s more important than that is what you do up front when it comes to letting your children play outside or letting your children play unsupervised. Avoid a missing child incident before it happens. For instance, we did the HLN digital fingerprinting. Have information on file and ready for police if they need it. To this day, in my own neighborhood, I see children walking around from one place to the next by themselves. That’s not okay. Also, be careful at pick-ups and drop-off locations at school and after school activities.
Of course there’s always the aberration. Remember the Erin Runnion case? Her daughter, [5-year-old] Samantha Runnion, was right there in the front yard with the grandmother inside looking out the window and she got taken out of the front yard. It does happen, but a lot of this is avoidable. There are ways to protect, and that’s the message I want to get out.
"Nancy Grace: America's Missing" airs at 9 p.m. ET immediately following Grace's other program, "Nancy Grace" on HLN.

Watch Nancy Grace Monday through Sunday starting at 8 p.m. ET on HLN. For the latest from Nancy Grace click here.

I hate her just go look at her Elizabeth smart interview where smart made her shut up. how she stays around i have no clue
Please Read this:
Here we go again! Another round of legal troubles with DCS! When does it stop? My MAIN objective in this note is to bring to light all the FACTS which need to be known before this round spirals out of control AGAIN> Because no one has heard all the facts about this situation and in the proper order, in order to render a competent decision.
Ask me what I have gone thru over and over and over again with my daughters behavior! Ask me about her mental state of mind from one minute to the next. Ask me how many times she has been drunk, or drugging, and totally disregarding of any rules of normal living. Ask me why I still back her up or pick up the pieces each and every time she falls into or creates another mess. I can tell you that I always thought that since God gave her to me, that "I" was responsible for her well being and her survival as best I could do. I have been thru a living hell with this child of mine for 23 years; in and out of re-habs, leaving home at all hours, going who knows where and when to return. I have heard her cries for help. I have healed up all her hurts that others have done to her and those she did to herself! She has burned every bridge behind her and has no one to turn to from anywhere. Luckily now she has a husband who is willing to take the wheel for her now that I am not able to make any progress, and he should receive the sympathy cards now. I will never degrade her for her sins to me or others. I will only keep stressing to her the facts that she has born 2 daughters and now she should show some responsibility to care for them as I have for her. I have seen her struggle with the addictions she has and the losses she has gone thru. She is a survivor. She will make things right. I have tried in every way I know how to reach out for help for her to no avail in this county! She has made progress in the last 3 years more than ever before. I KNOW she can stay clean and sober; but I know she is like a time-bomb inside of herself. We never know when that bomb is going to be set off. It may stem from not agreeing with her on something. It may be because she has no respect for anyone in this world in authority, and never has! She is narcissistic. She has ADD, she has Borderline Personality Disorder, and is very strong willed and determined to have everything her way or everyone pays the price for it. She is a master of manipulating anyone and every situation to go her way. Unless I have her sober and calm there is no way she will listen to anything I try to talk to her about. I have felt like she was the devil himself more than 80% of my life; and my only respite was PRAYING constantly day and night for God to fix her or help her. She knows the hell she has put me and this family thru, and she admits her mistakes and choices. She regrets much of what she has done to me and her children. She has the want to change things and she will fail to live up to her own expectations. But when she has the counseling or the real gumption to stick with it it works for a while, then she becomes restless and flighty... and therein comes another round of trouble. Its not a matter of if she will fall again, it's a matter of when. We never know when the bottom is going to fall out; and we have tried to give her some freedom with Phoebe, but she will still manage to fall into the same pattern of wanting to be in control of every situation about everything. If I had not had custody of Phoebe, I KNOW things would not be good for Phoebe's safety. There have been times she would run off with her and take her to Knoxville or wherever to Kentucky and just be carefree with who she brings Phoebe in contact with. I am totally in disagreement with her on who she lets into Phoebe's life. With me she is not exposed to the type of people Lisa has exposed her to. She has safety here with me and Bob, and considers this her home. We have picked up Phoebe in the middle of the night 3 times in the past 3 weeks, because of situations happening with Lisa and her husband. She has left him 2 times and moved everything back here, and re-moved back to him, and taken Phoebe without any PERMISSION to Knoxville and took our vehicle we let her husband use to take things back to their home; and the truck broke down at 1 AM with her and Phoebe and she had her ex boyfriends parents pick them up and stayed in Knoxville. We immediately went to pick up Phoebe from there and left Lisa there; and recovered and fixed the vehicle; another expense on us once again. I have been beaten up by Lisa over 5 times in 3 years and she has been in jail for 2 of those times, And STILL when I tried to put a protective order for me and Phoebe and our home and for Phoebes safety... the Judge doesn't see fit to issue that order, but instead orders her to have weekend visitations with her!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! HOW insane does the justice system get when they don't ask all the things that need to be known BEFORE making such a compromise with Phoebe's safety first!???
We are never going to give up fighting for the custody and care of this baby because throughout it all we know what is best for her. She is innocent and should not be subjected to living with strangers. We have many many BLOOD RELATIVES in 5 states who are ready, willing, and able, to provide security and comfort and well-being of this baby, and I see NO reason whatsoever that the Judge would not appropriate this request to have Phoebe released to a blood family member until all the other pending legal issues and Lisa's sobriety can be accomplished! It will take years for Lisa to stay clean and sober and everyone I or she knows, KNOWS the hell we have had to live with from Lisa's behavior. Please give us some hope and comfort in knowing that Phoebe will be in our family's circle while her mother is trying to attain some sobriety and get thru her legal issues. If Phoebe is left with strangers this will be damaging to her well being. She has never been in any harms way except when her mother is out of control. I was already going thru another hell week from Lisa's actions over the past few weeks and I was tired and drained emotionally, mentally, and physically from everything she has put us thru these last few months; and mainly this week before all of this other situation occurred. I had not slept much in weeks and have been stressed over the coming and going of Lisa in our house and trying to just get things back on track. When I picked her up in Knoxville I was driving home and she begged me to take her to her friends house to pick up some things. I tried to tell her NO, it was not a good idea. Again I fell prey to her demands and we did go there. I know I had a drink then I waited for her to be ready to leave, that did not happen like I wanted. I wish I would have just dropped her off there and left, but I wanted her to come back home and help me with the last mess she left here. I wanted to rest to I could get back some strength to carry on. She gave me some Ambien and I fell asleep. Thats where I messed up. I NEVER saw coming whatever happened after that. I was totally asleep from that point on. When I was at home my husband took care of getting me into the house. I do not remember anything from after taking the 2 Ambien. I NEVER allowed Lisa to drive us home. I could have stayed right there and all be okay. I called my husband at one point and told him where we were. I have phone records to this fact. I know my part in this situation and am willing to pay the price for it. But I am not willing to let this system take my granddaughter and keep her with strangers during this matter being resolved. I know they want to help Lisa regain custody of Phoebe, but it is impossible to tell when that could occur, or if it ever will. She has already lost one daughter for almost 7 years now, and has made no attempt at cleaning up for her return of trying to get piper back also. If I haven't done all I could to keep her sober, how do they think she will act in the future. It never ends with the drama and chaos that Lisa brings to whoever she comes in contact with. I have to break this cycle with me and Lisa. I finally realize that nothing I can do will ever make her change, believe me, I have tried everyway I know how to just maintain my sanity to be able to care for her child while all along I have the constant interruptions of Lisa's nomadic, chaotic lifestyle to deal with thru it all. Please see where I am coming from when it comes to trying to keep Phoebe from being lost in the shuffle. She is a loving, smart, peaceful and pleasant, and manerly child that me and Bob have raised properly since her birth. Her mother has not stayed clean past a week at a time since Phoebe was born !!!! I have prayed for the day of her awakening to try and work toward being how a mother should be and I have failed to make that happen. I have sent her to jail for our safety and then they keep sending her free again to redo the same things. The progression of her inabilaty to stay clean or seek the help to keep her straight has failed. I get no support from the judge on this behavior of hers. He instead of protecting Phoebe, gibes visitation to a woman who is not capable of doing what needs to be done to stay sober. Yet I am now in a lose-lose situation because Phoebe is not with family once again and they are making arraignments to keep her from us for God only knows how long with little or no knowledge of her well being! And all because they perceived to prejudge ME during her arraignment, before investigation what led up to the moment Phoebe was taken from her bed sleeping! Why are the rules okay for DCS, the revengeful policeman, and the strangers we do not even know, who by all accounts are still upset about us winning custody over 3 years ago when they were set on making me and Lisa the bad guys in all of this. I wrote to the governor the first time we were denied a proper meeting with DCS and whoever makes the decisions about Phoebe's care and safety. I make ONE mistake and she is taken, and Lisa makes a million and is set free every time to redo the same actions that started this whole mess!!!! If you cannot see the pressure and stress I have had to endure from Lisa's actions in all her 38 years and you do not want to listen to my heart; then at least give my husband and Lisa's husband and my BLOOD relatives the chance to be heard BEFORE ANY DECISION is made on this baby's welfare! This is ALL I am asking of whoever is responsible to render the final decision on all of this. PLEASE hear from MY FAMILY and friends on EVERY THING that has happened throughout Lisa's life and lifestyle before making me the fall guy on this one. I have struggled without rest or reprieve and a constant guard over protecting Phoebe from the one person who can do her the most harm.... and that is her mother until she has total proven and withstanding sobriety for a long amount of time! Please know, that I will NOT stop at any level going to whoever I have to, all the way top the Supreme Court and the President of the USA until I am satisfied that Phoebe is put in her home where she truly belongs. Whatever it takes to accomplish this, I am willing to do. I will not let this baby be in a system that I have SEEN already put her in the hands of people who can manage to take her off to the Gulf Coast while they have her with them, given to them by a system who fails to get all the questions and answers FIRST, before they place her with anyone. We only want Phoebe safe and loved and happy and content, and kept alive! I know my family, me and my husband, and any one who knows Phoebe wants that same goal. Please hear me and them BEFORE she is given to non-family! I am relentless and determined to have Phoebe in the proper hands by Monday or this nation will know I will not quit trying or give in to signing her life away so easily to strangers, till this is done. Ask Phoebe if you need to know what she knows, she will tell you the facts also as I have, and she is smart enough to know the truth and let it be known. She is not going to be another statistic; I will see to that, no matter what I have to endure trying! Give her to the ones her heart wants, not to strangers. I have never felt so alone and helpless in my life, while in constant fear that Phoebe is not safe or comforted by those she loves! I need the legal assistance of anyone who is willing to help me prove the truth on this situation. All I have seen from this justice system is egotistical think-they-know-it-all type of persons involved with this mess, that I cannot ever be comforted until Phoebe is where she belongs and where she wants to be to be loved and cared for, and kept alive. God has helped me thru all of this with her, and God wants Phoebe with FAMILY! Do you not understand that we cannot rest until she is? Start by hearing the truth from my family before believing strangers and asking us nothing. It feels like you have shot first and take names later. Well, I have the truth and it will prevail. Gos assures me of this. Ask Phoebe where Jesus is! She will amaze you in every aspect of her being; she is heaven sent and she should be treated as such. Do not let her feel this separation any longer from her loved ones. Give her to our family SOON ! Please. Any help from anyone who receives this letter will be sincerely appreciated. If only your statement to the judge, that is enough to help resolve this situation. I will not give up or give in EVER! Thank you for your reading this. I am knowing God is on my side one hundred percent! HE has seen it ALL. And HE sustains me thru every adversity I have had to live with since my daughter was born! And it is no easy job fighting and living with the devil himself, and thats what I have had to do for 38 years, NO ONE will doubt my word on anything of this, it is the TRUTH! Know it, and make the right and true judgment, and immediately, before Phoebe is given once again over to this system. Thank you. Linda M Harris, Grandmother of Phoebe Mya Bell. She is the one hurting most out of all of this. The longer this drags on, the more hurt she has to endure! Do not take me lightly, I am not one to quit trying . I never will till my last breath, and going thru this mess is pushing that moment along way too fast. I want Phoebe's happiness and safety more than ANYONE in this WORLD! More than anyone could possibly ever comprehend.

If what you tell us is true, your daughter is clearly mentally ill and possibly evil. Also, protective services may not offer perfect shelter, they can keep your daughter away from your granddaughter. I believe that is very important for the little girl's mental health. Her mother will not be able to drop in and take the little one when ever she feels like it. Live your own life before you are as messed up as your daughter. Possible the court lets you visit your granddaughter. If you truly want the best for everyone, let go, and live your life.
From one that learned the hard way.
linda i red ur page about ur grandaughter dnt give up if it takes every breath u have. i been there the state of indiana took both my boys for nothin .i swear they planned this from get go took my 5yr. old now hes 26 took him cohorsed him into saying things promised him everything. yeah right all lies my son was tossed from home to home as he gotten older tossed into the messed up system juvie here an there.no kind of life for a kid.then to make matters worse they destroyed both my sons life when the 26yr. old truned 18 the state done damaged him mentally...emotionally.my son now lives his life in prison.my son is damaged goods thanks to our screwed up system.so i beg of u fight with every breath u have .i fought for 2yrs. straight an lost. i guess its true u cant win the system unless a person i so called rich.i wish u da best dont give up fight.............lots of love...and best wishes to you an ur family...
just wondered why there has been no talk of Hailey Dunn lately. something is just not right there and somebody knows where she is. very sad. there has been so much child abuse lately and the one about the baby found in a toilet is horrible. also the one that got murdered because the mother was on the computer playing games. the 3 boys in michigan i believe their father did something to them. beautiful children gone but not forgotten!! i have two sones who are now grown and have families of their own and am a very proud grandmother!! just don't understand people and how they can do things to little ones. and then there's casey anthony!! what a dol kaylee was. thanks for your time in reading this and for keeping the lost and hurt ones alive with your show. your twins are adorable!!!
Nancy Grace is a talented interviewer and researcher. It is unfortunate that her video editors seem to have jumped out of college determined to use every video special effect in the book. They have not matured to the point of knowing "a little goes a long way" when it comes to special effects. We want to see a child's or other missing person's face–not a caricature of it. We do not want video that looks like a fire burned away the background; we do not want to see a picture that looks like it came out of the 19th century. Just show the facts: the real pictures; the real story. Special effects are for science fiction, and even then, they should be used sparingly.
To Linda and Bob Harris: I will pray for you and your family. It is unwise, however, to post your physical address on the internet. My heart goes out to you in your pain.
My mother Carmelita Johnson has been missing since Jan. 5, 2010. She is 48 years old. She was last seen leaving the 5500 blk of Seeley Ave. in Chicago IL headed eastbound on the bus and never made it to her destination. She was last seen wearing a white coat, pink hat, blue jeans, and brown boots. Any info is helpful. Please contact the area one police at 312-747-8385 Det. Riley is assigned to the case. It has been very hard for the family. I never imagined anything like this would ever happen to us. Please continue to keep us in your prays and we will do the same for you all!!
please examine he toni sharpless case in Pennsylvania.

Here's are some goals for you Nancy.
1.Find integrity in 100 days.
2.Find an apology for the Duke La cross team (you know the ones you 'Knew' were guilty. Funny how it turns out you were WRONG
3. that's it I'm thinking those two right there should be more than enough of a challenge for you.
I'm thinking if there is a chance that Nancy Grace could ever actually have any integrity then there is still a shot for Satan to get into heaven.
