- Unreported World follows a private investigator trying to track down the indigenous women going missing without a trace in the wilderness of the United States.
Thousands of indigenous women are believed to be missing or murdered, leaving families and loved ones desperately trying to find answers. But often confusion over jurisdictions between federal, state and tribal authorities can mean that many police investigations become cold cases that are never solved. Now indigenous women across the United States are stepping up to find their women.

The Native American people should be protected at all cost. You will never hear our politicians discuss this issues.
Maybe they shouldn't be their own sovereign nation and assimilate into the US.
Besides, it's their own men who are selling these women to the cartels in exchange for drugs.
How about all people should be protected not just a certain race
Right!
We should, but racists want to continue to perpetuate their colonial and lateral violence
This is such a huge problem where I live. Everyone cares for a few days and then forgets. Don't let them forget anymore.
Blessings to you and your family and friends,I hope everything goes well for you
Praying for you and the safety of all our sisters.
How about honest discussion about the abuse they get from their own which causes the problem.A lot easier to blame Whitey.
Where is this? I promise not to forget. Ever.

My heart hurts for Native Americans and these missing women.
They're not native they're Asian as u can see 👀
I met my Husband in a Foster home..I asked if he was Chinese or Japanese..he said Indian..being Blackfeet/Cree. Natives Have connections to the Asian people. Think about it ,that Russia and Mongolia is next to each other ,just one example of migration patterns.
Thank you. My heart hurts when my own don’t do enough to find who it is that’s missing. Our women shouldn’t go missing. We have enough now that this shouldn’t happen, it’s all at our fingertips.
Crazy how this only has 33k views… shows how much this problem is not important to society! So sad! Prayers to the women and their families
And a town in Mexico addicted to coca cola has 13 million in 1 year....
The media is to blame mostly I feel for not bringing light on these horrible things.
And just how many viewers are in the US, for instance I'm in the UK, it's a tragedy what has happened to the native Americans
Maybe have your own men take accountability for the abuse of their women.
Perhaps in a program like that called "Get Clóset to Rocío" this could be somewhat shown to try to Reach out to México
Get very annoyed whem people like to say "this has been passed on for generations" or "people in my family have done this for generations" but then they turm around to say trauma can't be passed from generations. You didn't become a good doctor EXACTLY because your dad was one, your presence in his life and seeing his daily habits that he saw from his dad that he saw from his dad is what made you that. Seeing the pain of passed generations is the same
The did a study on children and grandchildren of holocaust camp survivors and the trauma of that was imprinted on tgeir DNA (how idk I'm not a geneticist). So of course trauma of slavery or the Native American wars which effected generations can be based down genetically- then on top of nature. It's based down from what we see and learn from our parents- via nurture. Just like a man that hits his wife- is raising children that will abuse or allow abuse 9/10 times. By the time your old enough to want to make a change- you stuck in a rut & it becomes to hard. Hook em while they're young.
I believe it…
The research in this area is now scientifically confirming that trauma genetically transmits alterations to the DNA that are enduring from generation to generation. Anyone who tells you otherwise, ask for their sources. There better be hard core dedicated academic research in professional journals refuting my assertion-but there won’t be. Science is about facts not feelings.
The people who want to hurt Native women know the loopholes between tribal law/civilian law, which makes an already vulnerable population moving targets! And she IS right, Suzy Q WILL get the resources put into her search
I suspect it’s even more simple: men who want to hurt women. It’s the loopholes that make indigenous women targets. A guy wants to rape & kill, why risk it with the white woman down the street who will get an investigation at the very least. Just go hunt on or around the rez & you’ll almost certainly get away with it. Like hunting game. Both federal & tribal governments are setting these women up like involuntary bait, but without traps. They may as well be selling indigenous women hunting licenses. It’s absolutely disgusting, inhumane & terrifying.
it's insane to me that something so universally agreed upon as "trafficking is bad" hasn't stopped these men from victimizing native women and children. Like, whose toes could the government possibly be stepping on by fixing the gapping loophole in the law? What, are the biker gangs lobbying to keep things the way they are? There's literally no good explanation for why the laws haven't been changed, besides indifference.
His body language when being questioned says different...he doesn't come accross as very upset by her disapearance...
Well duh!!! Victims were taken off or away from the Rez!!! Taken to US land!!! Were taken to the American police station or US authorities place!!! Mmmh??? What does this mean??? Mmmm?
There's been several kidnap interceptions here in Oklahoma in 2017. The kidnapped Comanche and Kiowa girls were both traced back to Liberal, Kansas, and the kidnappers were from Mexico. The kidnappers are still being questioned about where the girls are.
How do they know they’re from Mexico?
@@Buttsceatcgee They woman that they lived with told on them, and those Native girls were taken back to Oklahoma. Some of these missing girls hide themselves away and end their own lives. In 2013, a missing Native girl in Anadarko was found completely decomposed and hanging from a tree along the Washita river. She ended her own life after her boyfriend died of a pulmonary embolism.
Mexican human trafficking?
@@dakota3872 Probably organ harvesters, too.
@@harryyazul2385 I cant believe we do this to our own ppl
This is like what's happening in Canada isn't it? And the "Highway of Tears".
Sadly, yes.
Also north Americans. Sad
All of North America, terrible :(
it’s pretty much just all of Canada in general.
Look at Tommy scratches face and being fidgety with no eye contact.. I'm extremely suspicious
Soaring as high as an eagle
He looks like he has a mental illness just how sketchy he look and talk when they asked him questions
The loopholes need to be closed. The agencies need to work together.
Their look of despair is so familiar to me. May Creator avenge and balance the chaos created by the enemies of our souls.
I know about this more than most, I liv in Winnipeg MB (Canada) and this has been an ongoing problem for many years and still the government doesn't do anything about it. It is very sad, I am "Metis" Native/Caucasian
My heartfelt condolences to these beautiful people. God Bless 🙏💐
It's sounded like the police see the American Indian people as a problem in their own. 🤨🧐😠😡 I have a feeling that nothing is going to happen about this missing woman.
Heartbreaking, please get involved! These are the real Americans!!
Actually for all purposes they’re not. That’s literally not how this all works.
@Homeward Bound Yep! They were here before anyone else.
@@CR1T1KaL714 Actually just cause your people weren't in America 1st makes your lot 2nd or last.
So what black people aren't American? Oof
You’re on stolen Indigenous lands INbREDS
Sending love to our brothers & sisters on the reservations.💚🖤❤
Thank you for sharing, bringing this information to us the people who care.
Prayers for susans family and many other missing indigenous women and men
This is so hard to hear you. You can't even fathom the pain, the suffering who could do this to people
He’s extremely suspicious like he knows what happened to her
Why do you suppose Tommy is quiet about her whereabouts?
Thank you for posting this. It.s tragic and horrific.
The cruelty of humans never seizes to shock me. Why but why?! I don’t think there is a culture in the world where women don’t suffer at the hands of men.
the three main abrahamic religions don't really see women as fully-formed, whole people. that probably has something to do with it, at the root. women are still not seen as people in many places.
I like the way he said our missing people instead of there missing people
For the police officer to say that people choose homelessness/addiction and the dangers that come with that is so wrong!
That’s South Dakota for you
It's like the same here across the United States the government feeding them drugs to keep controlling them and keeping them dumb and quiet just like the governor in California legalize marijuana which is an addictive drug and causes cancer... Which millions OD..
From what I understand; it's hard when it happens or the person resides on a reservation. The reservation has it own small police force for 100-1000 square miles. Sometimes one force for multiple reservations. Some of that force is hired out and isn't even from that area. Reservation cops can only deal with people that live in the reservation. The town, county & state cops can't do anything if it happens on the reservation. So if a non native man rapes-kills a native women on a tribal lands- none of the local police can do anything legally to that man. It becomes a federal crime. So then the native spokes person has to raise the flag. However- if they don't know who did the crime- only the victim, then it's the tribal police job to investigate. The tribal police don't have the resources & knowledge how to properly investigate. If they find the body on the huge rugged terrain & while they is still evidence to collect when found. In top of that people on reservation tend to live in less then desirable situation- often. The drugs and alcohol runs rampet. The houseing is poor. Native americans dont really trust (riggtfully so based on history) the goverment. & Often these women are adults- who can chose to go missing, so unless a body is found- there is no assumed crime. If it takes a week for the friend to report her missing, the body is in the elements- then there is no evidence for a poorly prepared small force to look over. It's lose lose situation. Plus the autopsy are done off reservation & native Americans want to buried the person quucklt, bc of spiritual believes. So it's really just a cluster duck of hoops to jump through. The tribes don't want to give up rights to have state police come in- understandable, so it's just stuck in a nothingness & native American women and children pay the price. On top of that if you want to victimize some1 & get away with it; you chose some1 with the smallest voice: poor, homeless, addict, minority (all though most crime is done to people that resembles the prep), child, single person. Crimes are solved when loved ones and communities don't backdown. Even then you have Brian Landrie walk off and kill himself, right under cops nooses while the world warched.
Very well said.
Very illuminating.
Thank you. Every once in a great while you come across a great comment that educates, not eviscerates someone/something. This is one of those rare ones. Because of you I learned a lot today so please know, you’re much appreciated.
Not necessarily. I live within 40 miles of 3 reservations ( not in SD). 2 have tribal police. People on reservations who commit state crimes can be prosecuted by the state regardless of race. Tribal police work with country sheriff departments where I live. Crime, abuse, and alcohol drug abuse are worse on reservation, though. It's sad. They are good people who are hurting
This is absolutely heartbreaking!
Unacceptable
It’s so frustrating to see how MMIW are ignored except for by there own women. I am going to look into how to get involved.
Help me I'm starting something I'm a Ojibwa/ Chippewa from Canada
Tommy is definitely very nervous and figgity. He knows a lot about what happened.
I think he looks like he does drugs other than alcohol. I guess he's unusually chubby for a meth addict (it suppresses appetite), but his fidgeting would fit. it could also be that he's autistic and that's what's known as "stimming", that would also fit his avoidance of eye contact. his nervousness isn't necessarily guilt, it could just be because he's being filmed and he knows that a lot of people suspect him of murder.
he's definitely being dishonest about the abuse though. the question whether they ever fought was phrased in such an open way that if he was honest, he would have said yes.
I didn’t thinking was allowed on these lands seems as if ppl turn a blind eye so sad - Tommy knows more than he’s saying
@@Ass_of_Amalek I was thinking he was either on a hard drug like heroin or mentally handicapped, myself. He's definitely compromised mentally, and not just from booze.
Praying She is found safe and healthy
Tks for awareness 😢😢😢😢
Dunno about Tommy man, he knows more than he let's on, calling it now.
How do you know what Tommy knows ???
@@marythunderhawk1382 I don't, it was just a comment I left based on how he's acting. Like how his first question was if they were detectives. He also seemed very distant during the conversation. I'm by no means an expert however, just going of what I've seen in previous true crime interviews and interrogations.
@@marythunderhawk1382 Usually talking about someone in the past tense is a give away
Really weird, wife is gone missing. Husband doesn't do anything to search? Isn't he the prime suspect?
@@mrnarason probably he is, he sold her for money and foods I think so sus
Makes me sick when law enforcement don’t even care to help or look. I live on an Indian reservation. It’s like we’re invisible unimportant and no worth.
They need some drone's with heat detection cameras.
I’ve been talking about this for years. They delete my profiles because of it. Now you are finally speaking? Seriously? 🦅
Who is doing it?
I am heartbroken because so many indigenous woman go without help because of drug and alcohol addiction issues, because of NO FUNDS TO HELP!. They get Judged because of their addiction PEOPLE SHOULD ALWAYS understand this crippling brain disease. Help ease these families hearts great spirit. Help find lost indigenous women.
It’s called blaming the victims…not different from the “what was she wearing,” “why was she in that place” response to rape. Otherwise, people would have to ask some very disturbing questions of themselves.
This same thing is happening in Canada and Alaska as well. I did a Google search on this and it just broke my heart. 😢
This is so horrible...It makes me sick. I'm sending love and protection to all these women, families. I wish I could do more. ❤
Tommy looks extra shifty.
Wow u know..i didnt hear about these missing ppl till that case with that blonde girl and because of her search they had recovered several other bodies and braught light.this is terrible
I'm a native American that just broke free from a captive hold I was in for a year. I don't feel save. Kimberley sue quill , camp hope a homeless place in Yakima , WA
I'm a native 2 spirited female, 2 different kinds of brain damage, I've been gased out many times. I'm lucky to be alive. I want people to know what bad people do to us. I want to save many others like me being held without chains.
Alcohol abuse has brought so many down...I was homeless for 7 years...I prayed for many alcohol abusers, but many died. So extremely sad...if they could only see what they could have been and chose that route. I keep hope to see more hop off the evil train that will destroy them and never desire to ride it again. 😇🙏
Grateful for your ability to see you're worthy of love not only for yourself but others too, Daryl. God gave us free will to choose the Right or wrong. Seems CTR is the Way to go!While things weren't always smooth, much less easy, it was easier to deal with when Heavenly Father & His Holy Spirit were Lighting the way.
After leaving an abusive husband, I was working but I'd not only developed carpal tunnel in my wrist as a floral designer but lacked a dollar in pay to pay rent & daycare. I asked for help with food but made too much money! Me in yard sale clothes as was my son, a beat up gas guzzler while other women dressed in very nice clothes, gold jewelry, faux designer purses & nice cars..came back out with their hands full & swear two more kids than she went in with!
Long story..the Holy Spirit whispered "Call the Bishop." No. NOPE. Nay, nay. Not been in church for a decade, a wretched me, awful. Three days..kinda notice the 3day thing in Spirit..I can guarantee you, the wretchedness you may think you come from are darkness's demons. If they believe you are heading towards the Light, they'll grab on.
I could write a book but who'd want to read it? (See what just happened? The negative darkness jumped right in!)
The United Way has a plethora of volunteer openings as do others. Volunteer.org which shows such. A long time ago I was a radio reader. Those who were blind had special radios where they'd tune into the broadcast & get newspaper articles of variety, even obituaries. Larger markets got to read from magazines, books, etc. My older neighbor started coming with me on Fridays & was in heaven for her as she was using her well spoken & articulate voice. So I was helping not only the visually impaired but she as well. Of course, me too. Truth be known, the lonely.
🍃🕊️🍃Blessed are the peacemakers.
⚠️Just tapped the link & it came up with a 6 before it, noting not secure for sensitive data. If you search by typing it in, it brings up a variety of volunteer openings. Not seen it before but there's jobs claiming $45/hr. I haven't looked at anything yet but wanted to let you know about the link thing. Remember..NEVER GIVE UP!
Native americans poses the genetic marker to be predisposed to alcoholism (of course not all), just like Latino are highly likly to get diabetes. Maybe bc alcohol is newer for them- idk- white folks can have the marker too. Plus I believe when stuck in a rut were you feel hopeless or pin against alcohol & drugs give instant joy. 135-150 yrs ago the native American world was changed so drastically that it's hard for the spirit to catch up. It like taking a person from 1970 & teaching them new technology. In the 1990s- a phone was stationary, film was developed from a camera, you need a boombox to play a 15$ CD, letters came by post, it cost 20 cents a minute to call one area code over, social media was watching the news with your family or sharing the paper & Google was the library's card catology. Now my phone does more than that and it fits in my back pocket. You can't rip coustume and culture away- replace them with punishment, death and starvtion, poverty & expect the great grandchildren to be ok. Especially of such a proud people that were so connected to the earth- tgeir chakras got tomahawk.

That's so sweet
😢 I'm disturbed about the 7000 killed in Montana since 2016 and I think I know who is the main culprit. I told the Montana Police to check the border crossings for this guy who is killing these women on weekends. How can I contact the tribal Police?
Sometimes those people killing this women or natives the police don't do anything out of racism and hatred towards the natives were the police or Federales..
I pray for natives all the time.
Native lives matters!!!
This on going issue I pray has a resolution soon. The break down in communication is vast. It hurts to hear this to know my ancestors went through this is absolutely horrifying & heartbreaking.
The husband knows what happened to her but he's not sober long enough to give any information. She could be with the homeless man or being trafficked.
Just stumbled onto this. Good video. Was Susan ever found? I'm only learning about this terrible problem, so please forgive any ignorance on my part. What about some sort of task force that includes all possible relevent law enforcement to find ways to work together to solve some of these cases?
How is it that non-natives coming onto the reservation can't be arrested by tribal or state police? That sounds like an outdated and useless law that needs to be reformed. That is doable. Who does have jurisdiction?
What do the people think will help? I like this video because it can help inform more people about what's going on. You need more backing. By that I don't mean just money. Society needs more awareness.
My sense is you are on the right track. Don't give up.
Tommy knows
Yes maam 😢😢 Im sorry
Her husband is touching his mouth when answering the last question.. And please check the way he does that carefully. That's a huge sign of body language being opposite to what he's verbally communicating. He knows more and he's not saying the truth.
Who are all the creepy people in port Angeles
It's an absolute shame how natives live in the USA I don't think there's any group not even people living in the hoods that live as poorly as they do. They have no infrastructure and no safety nets
This....
Allah protect these women!💖
Assisti o filme Wild River e vim pesquisar mais sobre os desaparecimentos. Estou chocada. É muito triste... abraços do Brasil ❤
😢 We need someone to invent a time tunnel like machine, that would solve these crimes and stop the crap. I wrote a short story about this and got 4 stars for it on Amazon.
This is happening in Canada my niece was brutality murdered just weeks ago
The US people should be ashamed of their government. This is a huge problem that proceeds much more than _one or two_ administrations, so be the change you want it to be instead of blaming one or two specific presidents. There needs to be a change in the consciousness of people, there shouldn't be any excuse that _so many_ people living homeless on the streets around the whole US whether they're native or not.
It’s not a good feeling to watch what’s happening in America from an outside perspective, so I can only imagine how it must feel for people who are actually living there. 😔
My heart goes out to all the struggling people and families in the US.
Indigenous people have their own lands so called "reservations" like their little countries. So most of the time the federal government doesn't have the right to interfere with their affairs. Of course because you're an outsider so you're ignorant about that!
@Zen Brainwashed by which media and how???
That is very true ! I hear and see every day here in New Mexico.
LET`S GO BRANDON!
@@dnguyen787 that’s it’s the greatest nation in the world but the last 1.5 years (due to covid) have really revealed to everyone else who was previously ignorant/naive what America is made of. Hugely problematic nation…
man those cops are pretty useless , jeez
This is happening in Canada 🍁 too
Sounds like their are a lot of underlying issues here on top of their race. Drug use, booze, knowing this these aren't good but glazing over them.
If enough digital and regilar forensics experts teamed up on this, there'd bound to be a link.
How can I help?
This is crazy its not even talked bout. Heard about this from a comment in another video.😳
One new subscriber here!🤍🤎🖤
I’m so sorry for these womens pain 😢
Her husband is hiding something.
Praying for my First Nations Sister.
Protect women and children not pipelines.
Very sad. Can't believe this is happening. What is the usa 🇺🇸 government doing about this?
Nothing.
They give utmost priority to the ivory species of humans. Not the ambers, not the ebonies..

They are looking for the boyfriend of whatever her name .
It's happening in Canada too (of course, we put the lines down on Turtle island)
Agreed! It's been centuries of mistrust! #WoundedKneeNeverForget😢
We're all damned because of this 💀
My prayers are always about the homeless, missing, and women and men being trafficked. I know there are many people black, white, native Americans and all race are being kidnapped, murdered and missing every day everywhere. It’s sad to think how everyone here seem like it’s all one race problem.
It’s sad that anyone could go missing and be forgotten! I pray for all indigenous women, men, and babies are found by the grace of Our Lord Jesus Christ. In Jesus Mighty Name. Amen.
Yeah you got a whole bunch of sociopaths, psychopath, weirdos out there....
I want to help! I don't have much! I struggle with addiction myself. This passed down PTSD.
There are more documentaries about the missing Indigenous women. I saw one on Netflix I believe. I think there being 2 types of police would make it harder to find these women. Too much red tape, too many things that aren't being shared.
Why is everyone there
This is a problem in Canada too...
17:11 she has the best laugh ❤
God bless y’all’s heart y’all are doing a wonderful job by speaking up about it don’t stop do everything in your power to keep on talking about it because the problem is going to continue❤
Yeah, Susie is native that's why, but if she was white, everyone and the world would be out looking😮
So interesting. In a polite way, the stereotypes are presenting themselves immediately in the docu. Native America: sacred lands... heavy drinking. I hope confronting these truths, along with additional news, will bring the missing home.
Hmm.. tommy sure is sus.
Where I live all the natives are drunks or on drugs so it makes to wonder if they are really missing or just living on the streets
It all comes down to men taking what they want regardless of what happens.
Yup. It’s sad but true
What drives me is when the cameras are rolling words are just that….words.
Those statistics are staggering....!
The sad part of the world is wen some people enjoying life , some don't
Shes by the pound.. he mentioned it so many times❤
Time to envoke the strength of Ta'xet and Tia and many others depending on your tribe. Asking nature for help is always a good start, but you also need to understand the answer. My heart breaks that this is happening and the evil of this world should be banished or their evil come upon them instantly.
Yet there seems to be ALL kinds of funding, resources, and man power to take from Indigenous people and their land. The US government needs to stop victim blaming and allocate mass funding for social, economic, mental health and substance abuse programs.... We need to clean up the mess that genocide, racism, and enslavement poverty has created. That's accountability.
This femands attention. Justice needs to be served .

The reason MANY choose to be HOMELESS is simple: Too many restrictive RULES.
