This episode follows the story of Deanne Hastings, who encountered multiple witnesses in the last days and hours before her disappearance. Multiple people looked the other way as Deanne started decompensating due to mental health issues. The episode also looks at another culprit: the U.S. mental health system. Her family believes had Deanne received the care and support she needed, she may still be here.
