While the Dateline team was in Nome, Alaska this summer for an all-new two-hour episode airing on Friday, October 14, we met a woman named Blaire Okpealuk.

On August 31, 2020, 33-year-old Florence Okpealuk was last seen on West Beach in Nome, Alaska at about 4:00 p.m. Florence’s younger sister, Alexandria Okpealuk, said it was unlike her to disappear or not answer her phone. When a whole day passed without hearing from her, Blaire and Alex said they began to worry. The Nome Police Department says Florence was reported missing on August 31, 2020, at 6:15 p.m.

“It wasn’t a very good conversation,” Blaire said. “I was just scolding her about her drinking and what she was losing in life.” For Alexandria, it was too painful to search. She told Dateline, “It was one of the scariest, hardest things I ever had to do and I couldn’t do it for very long.” Over the course of the last two years, the Nome Police Department has enlisted the help of several agencies, including the Alaska State Troopers and the FBI. The Nome Police Department told Dateline they cannot comment on the details of the case at this time as the investigation is still ongoing.
