The Girl on the Milk Carton is Oxygen’s latest true crime special on Sunday exploring a murder case that took over three decades to solve.
In 1984, 12-year-old Jonelle Matthews disappeared from her Greeley, Colo. home, and not even a nationwide missing child milk carton campaign—one of the first in U.S. history—proved successful in helping find her. The true crime special revisits the entire story on Sunday.

“After 20 years, I just felt like there was nothing I could do,” Angela Hicks, who was married to Jonelle’s murderer at the time of her disappearance, admits in the documentary. “I tried to do something and that didn’t work. It was a lot of waiting and a lot of years.”
Angela had previously suspected her ex-husband, true-crime enthusiast and former Idaho gubernatorial candidate Steve Pankely, was somehow involved in her disappearance. But Angela’s efforts to bring justice were unsuccessful—until 35 years later when Jonelle’s remains were discovered in 2019 just 20 miles from her home.
Angela would later reveal the crucial evidence that ultimately led to Steve’s 2022 conviction for kidnapping and murdering Jonelle. He’s currently serving life in prison with the possibility of parole. (Steve maintained his innocence throughout the trial.)
