Long Lost: An Investigative History Series

Episode 6: What Remains

In the final episode of Long Lost, host Jack El-Hai takes stock of where things stand with the case of the missing Klein brothers, what can be done and what we owe to the family who is still searching for answers.

Episode 5: Hope

How can we begin to understand the loss the Klein family has experienced? It's impossible, but also an important step in how we can try to empathize with and support families in this unthinkable situation. Betty and Kenneth are no longer able to share their experience, so Jack El-Hai sat down with Patty Wetterling to discuss how her family navigated the tragedy of her son Jacob's abduction, and what's changed since they learned of his fate after 27 years of searching.

Episode 4: What's Hidden

A tragedy of this scale has long reaching effects that reverberate through the years and touch family members in different ways. Memories fade, or change, and new questions emerge as the Kleins reckon with the lack of answers they have and who is ultimately responsible.

Episode 3: The Suspects

In a case that has been closed, with no crime scene and virtually no physical evidence, how do you even begin to imagine a list of potential suspects? Jessica Miller and Lance Salls go back to the beginning and scrutinize every interview and report to try to reconstruct the possible fates of the Klein brothers and find, incredibly, there are still avenues to pursue in this almost 70 year old case.

Episode 2: Searching Endlessly

While police closed the case of the missing Klein brothers after only five days, family and friends never stopped searching for Kenny, David and Danny. For decades, Kenneth and Betty Klein doggedly followed up on leads and worked to keep the story alive. Decades later, help would arrive from an unexpected source, and bring new energy and insights to a case many thought was too cold to ever solve.
