From my understanding, they are going to feature Tara Grinstead in the first half and Jennifer Kesse in the 2nd half. If you do not have cable, but have any way of getting just network tv, it will be on your local CBS channel at 9p est/8p central.
I will do my best to report in real time, but might need help from someone else. thanks

Stolen Beauty
June 30, 2008 (CBS) Former beauty queen Tara Grinstead was a beloved school teacher in Irwin County, Ga., with aspirations of becoming a high school principal, when she vanished from her home in October 2005. There were no signs of forced entry, no sign of a struggle and only her pocketbook and keys were missing.
But investigators suspected foul play when a latex glove was discovered in her front yard. Now, two and a half years later, Georgia authorities prepare to reveal new information to 48 Hours that could solve the Tara Grinstead case. And our cameras follow the Georgia Bureau of Investigation to Florida, where they explore a possible connection between this eerie disappearance and another troubling case, in Orlando.
Three months after Grinstead's disappearance, Jennifer Kesse vanished from her Orlando, Fla., home. Like Tara, Jennifer was young, beautiful and successful. And like Tara, there was no sign of forced entry, no sign of a struggle and only Jennifer's keys and purse were missing. Similarly, investigators uncovered a clue that they believe is essential to solving their case - grainy surveillance footage showing an unidentified shadowy figure, who authorities believe could be Kesse's abductor, emerging from her car.
Two women, nearly 300 miles apart, vanish without a trace and each investigation holds a clue that could be the key to cracking their case.
Correspondent Peter Van Sant reports on the case this Tuesday, July 1, at 9 p.m. ET/PT.

Tara last seen around 11pm on Sat Oct 22nd... reported missing Mon morning October 24th-- 34 hrs later. Described herself as a "happy person". Won Miss Tifton in 1999. She was a teacher and went to grad school at night.
When police chief first got there, car still in carport, no signs of forced entry or struggle in house.
Two things: latex glove found in yard and also a business card wedged in front door.
Cell phone was in charger but purse and keys missing.
Clothes that she was wearing when she was last seen were found in the house, so made it home from a cookout that she was at that night...
oki-back on

commercial time...
Described by family and friends as "least likely person to just disappear"- GBI feels same
Immediately fliers created and massive extensive search began... GBI guy states the most extensive he's seen in his 27 years.
No one heard any screams that weekend so question is did she possibly leave with someone she knew?
GBI id'd any romantic boyfriend-- several relationshiops...
most recent ex boyfriend was a former cop/army ranger... 6 yr relationship- described as stormy but always was in love with him.
2 weeks before she vanished, he told her relationship was over (Marcus)... she was sad and crying because she wanted to marry him one day.
He went on Greta and said that he saw her week before she disappeared and said that she was crying and irrational and ex said that Tara told him that if they couldnt be together would commit suicide...
GBI does not think she committed suicide- body would have been found by now- hard to hide your own body.
More to come..

Ex had alibi that he was at bar with friends and then went riding around town with friend who was a cop... alibi corruporated so far... for Tara
Former student of hers had violent outburst in March 2005 in which police report made.. Anthony Vickers--- tried to force his way into Tara's house... possibly became obsessive.
He knocked excessively on doors and windows using vulgar language- appeared to be out of control-- GBI has yet to draw connection...
Business card left on door---
actually that of a police officer from another town who was married...
According to neighbor he was a frequent visitor.
Weekend that Tara disappeared he actually came by on Sunday... and had left 2 dozen messages on her phone.
NO ONE has been ruled out--- no one has alibis for all 34 hrs...
family said "piece of puzzle missing that will bring answers"
New evidence is with that of the latex glove---- They have DNA and fingerprint--- DNA is Male Profile...
Out of 100 people they DNA tested that were connected to Tara in some way- no DNA or fingerprints of theirs matches... yet no one ruled out as possibly 3rd party involved- accomplice...

They haven't reported on anything that we haven't covered here at all. They still contend the height of the POI is between 5 ft. 3 in. and 5 ft. 6 in. and LE says the clothing is that of a worker of some kind such a painter.
I didn't give you a blow by blow report because I came in too late, but there is nothing new in their report. Rob is not considered a suspect since his phone was pinging where he lived and he did go to work 2 1/2 hours away.
Two years after her disappearance, her family and friends are still looking for her. Detectives have followed up on over a 1,000 leads in 50 states.
Rob never told Jenn he loved her. (I find this odd personally.)
The Kesse and Grinstead teams met up to compare notes and found nothing after 3 hours to connect the cases in any way.
