from Where are they? · host Where are they?

Ella Mae Begay, a beloved Navajo elder and talented rug weaver, vanished from her home in Sweetwater, Arizona, on June 15, 2021. Her silver Ford F-150 disappeared with her, but nearly five years later, neither Ella Mae nor her truck has ever been found. The investigation turned up a person of interest, but the legal process has been frustrating to say the least. The family, and the Navajo Nation community continue to fight for answers, not just for Ella Mae, but for all missing and murdered Indigenous women.
