The Hunt with John Walsh took viewers on a journey across the United States, delving into some of the most intriguing and heartbreaking criminal cases of our time. The show was divided into different segments, each of which had its own unique focus.

One of the most gripping segments on the show was titled "The Hunted", which featured profiles of some of the most dangerous and elusive criminals in America.

During these segments, Walsh revisited cases that had been closed, often featuring interviews with law enforcement officials and the families of the victims. The show highlighted the hard work and dedication of the detectives who solved these crimes, while also giving hope to families who were still searching for answers.
