The Girl on the Milk Carton
Five days before Christmas in 1984, Jonelle Matthews went missing from her own living room in the small town of Greeley, Colorado. In an attempt to find Jonelle, her face appeared on milk cartons. Nearly 34 years after her disappearance, her remains were finally found about 20 miles away from her home.
Before gubernatorial candidate Steve Pankey was linked to the brutal murder of 12-year-old Jonelle Matthews, he displayed odd behavior and inserted himself into the investigation.
Oxygen's The Girl on the Milk Carton focuses on the haunting case of Jonelle Matthews, who went missing at age 12, but what happened to other kids who were pictured on cartons?
In the 1980s, images of missing children were plastered on the side of milk cartons in the hopes that families sitting down to eat breakfast together would see the photos of kids who had disappeared and be on alert in their own communities.
It was 1984 when Jonelle Matthews, 12, disappeared, leaving behind a cold case that would echo through decades until an unlikely hero brought forth evidence crucial to solving it.
For 35 years, Jonelle Matthews' disappearance remained one of Colorado’s unrivaled cold cases. In 2019, a grim discovery 20 miles from her home changed everything.
