Dateline NBC

Blayne Alexander sits down with José Díaz-Balart, anchor of “Dateline en español,” to discuss his episode, “Missing Ana.” In December 2023, after separating from her husband, 40-year-old Ana Maria Knezevich moved from South Florida to Madrid, Spain, for a fresh start. Just two months later, Ana vanished. Close friends received text messages from Ana claiming she had met a man and gone on a trip. Skeptical of the messages, the friends sprang into action to find Ana. What followed was an international investigation spanning Serbia, Spain, and Florida. José shares what it was like reporting from Madrid, the city where he grew up. He and Blayne discuss Spain’s elite detective unit and the extraordinary lengths investigators went to in their search for the person responsible. Plus, José and Alex Lo Re, one of the producers of the episode, answer your questions from social media.
