When 60-year-old Ilene Gowan disappeared from Council Bluffs, police didn’t start with a suspect, they started with a camera. The new episode of See No Evil, airing Tuesday, July 8, on Investigation Discovery, follows a missing persons case that spirals into something darker, all traced through the watchful eyes of local surveillance.
The episode, titled One Hour in Omaha, opens with Ilene’s last known movements near the Iowa-Nebraska border. With no clear witnesses, detectives retrace her steps minute by minute, combing through city cameras, traffic footage, and store security reels. The trail doesn’t just show where she went, it shows who was following her—and who wasn’t telling the truth.
See No Evil has built a loyal audience by grounding each case in digital proof, removing speculation from the investigation and laying the facts bare. This week’s case leans hard on that premise, building a timeline from timestamped footage that directly contradicts statements made by someone close to Ilene. It’s a forensic takedown without a lab, using footage, not fingerprints.
See No Evil remains a staple on ID’s midweek schedule. Its commitment to methodical detail, case resolution, and technical accuracy keeps it sharp in a crowded true crime space.
One Hour in Omaha airs Tuesday, July 8, at 9:00 PM ET.
