Transcript of What happened to Bianca Carrasco? Preview Dateline: Missing In America Season 5 New

I really love the Start Today app.

They care about how I feel.

It's the staff on the app. It's the connections you make.

Without good mental and physical health, you have nothing.

It tells me how to cook to keep myself healthy.

I look at my app and I'm like, wow, I didn't know I did 7,000 steps today.

Hi, I'm Kate Snow, NBC News anchor and host of the NBC News podcast, The Drink. This month, I'm sitting down with actor, writer, producer Brendan Hunt. Most of you know him as Coach Beard from Ted Lasso, but there is so much more to his story. We sit down, we talk about all of it, from his bumpy upbringing to his years in improv comedy, and how a Hollywood rejection opened the door to co-creating Ted Lasso. It's an open, funny conversation about perseverance, creativity, and the winding road that brought him right here. We hope you'll join us for The Drink, Listen, and Follow wherever you get your podcasts.

Hey, it's Josh Mankiewicz with a preview of Dateline: Missing in America. In our podcast's 5th season, we share 6 new unsolved mysteries, and we're hoping someone listening might have a clue that could help crack one of these cases. Maybe that someone is you. Here's Dateline. Missing in America. If the American healthcare system were a human body, nurses would be its beating heart. They are the first people a patient interacts with, taking medical histories, running tests, checking vitals, administering medications, and drying tears. They usually spend more time with a patient than any other provider. The job is emotionally demanding and physically taxing. No day, no patient, no treatment plan is the same. The only constant: a nurse is expected to show up ready to work every day. That's what Bianca Carrasco did.

She loved her patients. She wasn't just there trying to do her job.

At 29, Bianca showed up for her patients day after day, shift after shift. She worked in oncology with patients who really needed her help.

She took pride in what she did and took it very seriously.

She did until May 1st, 2016.

And I said, okay, did she call? Did she call in? She said, no, ma'am. And she said, it's not like her.

That morning, Bianca did not show up at all.

From that point, I said, okay, something's really wrong.

It has been 10 years since Bianca Carrasco missed that shift at Topperwine Medical Center. Just outside of San Antonio, Texas. Her sister, Jovanna Birney, is still searching for answers.

I know there are people that have more information and they haven't spoken up, and I just think they're just as guilty by not speaking up.
