Ed Dentzel is a man of many trades. Trained as a classical pianist and a high school football player, he worked as an actor on Star Trek: The Experience, was a writer and held many other jobs before starting a podcast in 2016 focused on missing persons cases. In his time on his podcast, Unfound, Ed has covered approximately 300 cases and has become an expert in why people go missing and is acutely aware of how virtually anyone is vulnerable.

Ed also became a part of the Jonelle Matthews case when he interviewed a suspect, Steve Pankey, and was eventually called as a witness at trial. Matthews was a 12-year-old American girl who disappeared near Greeley, Colorado on December 20, 1984, was mentioned by President Ronald Reagan and became one of the first missing children to be placed on a milk carton. We discuss it all in the first of two episodes with Ed.
