“48 HOURS” CRIME TIME DOUBLE FEATURE: WHERE DID THEY GO?
Back-to-Back Encore Episodes All Summer
Saturday, Aug. 24
9:00 PM, ET/PT – Correspondent Peter Van Sant and 48 HOURS report on the disappearance of Marsha Brantley of Cleveland, Tenn., and the murder case against her husband, Donnie Brantley, in an encore of “Missing Marsha” to be broadcast Saturday, Aug. 24 (9:00-10:00 PM, ET/PT) on the CBS Television Network and streaming on Paramount+. The Brantley case was unusual from the start because for months after Marsha Brantley disappeared in 2009, nobody reported her missing. No one took much notice until her hairdresser, Kelly DeLude, who worried about a missed appointment, started asking. DeLude eventually called the police, and investigators later picked up the case. Donnie Brantley claimed he hadn’t reported Marsha missing because she had left him. Then, police say he lied repeatedly about where she had gone and what she’d taken with her. There was no body to prove a murder had been committed. Donnie Brantley was arrested in 2013, but prosecutors dropped the charges after deciding they didn’t have enough evidence to convict him. In 2014, District Attorney General Stephen Crump charged Brantley again. Then, in February 2018, just before trial, Crump dropped the charges against Brantley, shocking everyone. Watch a preview.
10:00 PM, ET/PT – Millionaire business owner Andreen McDonald was known for her strict workout regimen. When she didn’t show up for work on the morning of March 1, 2019, her employees called the gym, which was her usual first stop in her morning routine. They found out she never showed up there either, which raised red flags. What happened to the businesswoman, wife and mother? Correspondent Peter Van Sant reports in an encore of 48 HOURS: “Andreen McDonald: A Millionaire Vanishes” to be broadcast Saturday, Aug. 24 (10:00-11:00 PM, ET/PT) on the CBS Television Network, and streaming on Paramount+. Watch a preview.
