Dangerous desert mountains complicate search for missing general with UFO ties | Reality Check

Three weeks after the disappearance of retired Air Force Major General William Neil McCasland, authorities say they have little clues and no video footage from the night he vanished. In this special edition of "Reality Check": NewsNation correspondent Alex Caprariello reports on the ground and speaks to hikers. One hiker expressed frustration at what he feels is a lack of a robust search effort, telling NewsNation, "I feel like I'm the only one out here looking."
