What Happened to the Beauty Queen S.21 Ep.26

K & K return in the new year with coverage on a classic Dateline with more twists and turns that a luge track! Keith Morrison is one cool customer in a leather Fonzie jacket trolling the aisles of a small feed store in Arkansas to try and sort out why the murderer of young beautiful Nona Dirksmeyer is taking so long to be brought to justice! This episode has everything you would expect from a Dateline classic: police with tunnel vision, a young kid not requesting an attorney despite us screaming at the screen for him to do so, and a preacher/ policeman/ detective (actually maybe we’ve never seen that before), and an intriguing tri-ginger situation happening in small town America. So grab those boxes of receipts you have been meaning to sort and settle in for the first 2022 episode of A DATE WITH DATELINE: Seeing Red.
