Summary
- Retired detective investigates Kierra Coles' 2018 disappearance.
- Coles vanished three months pregnant with no police leads.
- New series explores secret relationships in missing persons cases.
Retired Chicago Detective Pamela Childs is lending her expertise to Investigation Discovery's new series, "Hunt for the Missing: Chicago." The show's premiere episode delves into the perplexing 2018 disappearance of Kierra Coles, a case that has stalled with the Chicago Police Department. Childs expresses frustration with the lack of progress, suspecting that the investigation may have been too narrowly focused on Coles' then-boyfriend.
Childs theorizes that Coles' disappearance may be linked to another individual in her life, a secret relationship she intends to uncover. The series promises to explore this angle, potentially identifying a previously unnamed person of interest. Each episode of "Hunt for the Missing: Chicago" will feature Childs examining other unsolved missing persons cases from the city.
The six-episode series aims to uncover new leads and provide answers for families who have endured prolonged suffering. It also seeks to offer hope and closure to those affected by these decades-old cold cases. "Hunt for the Missing: Chicago" premiered on Wednesday, March 4, 2026, at 10 p.m. ET on ID, with new episodes airing weekly and available for streaming on HBO MAX.
