She Seeks Justice

She was just 9 years old when she disappeared from her home in Shelby, North Carolina, during the early morning hours of February 14, 2000. Since then, her case has become one of the most recognized—and most perplexing—missing child investigations in America. Recent developments have renewed hope that answers may finally be within reach, but many questions remain. I spent countless hours researching law enforcement records, timelines, court documents, and credible reporting to create what I hope is the most comprehensive, factual account of Asha's case. This isn't built on internet rumors or sensational theories. It's a carefully documented timeline that follows the investigation from the night Asha disappeared through the major developments that have reshaped the case more than two decades later. If you care about cold cases, missing children, and the pursuit of justice, I hope you'll read it—and share it. Every new set of eyes helps keep Asha's story alive. Rea...

She was only 17 years old. She was four months pregnant. She left home expecting to return—and she never did. More than 30 years have passed since Angela Freeman vanished from Petal, Mississippi. Her abandoned car was found near Mahned Bridge. Blood evidence was recovered. Investigators believe she was the victim of foul play. Yet no one has ever been held accountable, and Angela has never been found. Behind every cold case is a family forced to live with unanswered questions. Behind every missing person's poster is a life that mattered. I take a closer look at Angela's disappearance, the investigation, the evidence, and the heartbreaking search for justice in my latest Faith, Fire & the Forgotten story.

She was Camden Arkansas's first female attorney. She passed the bar with the highest score in her class. She was respected, influential, and deeply involved in a legal battle over a fortune worth millions. Then she vanished. On March 2, 1957, Maud Robinson Crawford disappeared from her Camden, Arkansas home under circumstances that continue to baffle investigators nearly seventy years later. Her purse was left behind. Her car remained in the driveway. A pan of beans sat unfinished. It was as if she simply vanished into thin air. But as journalists and investigators dug deeper, they uncovered allegations involving a powerful Arkansas family, a disputed estate, missing documents, political influence, and witnesses who remained fearful decades after her disappearance. Was Maud the victim of a crime connected to one of Arkansas's most controversial estate battles? Or is the truth still hidden somewhere in the shadows of history?

  Forty-one years later, the disappearance of eight-year-old Marjorie Christina Luna remains one of Florida's most heartbreaking unsolved mysteries. On a warm Sunday afternoon in May 1984, eight-year-old Marjorie Christina Luna left her home in Greenacres City, Florida, to make a simple trip to a neighborhood grocery store. The store was only a few hundred feet away. It was the kind of errand parents asked children to run every day. The kind of short walk that seemed safe. The kind of ordinary moment that no one imagines will become the last time a child is ever seen. Marjorie, known to her family as Christy, purchased cat food at Greenacres Grocery on May 27, 1984. Witnesses reported seeing her at the store sometime around 3:00 p.m. Investigators believe she may have remained there for several hours, possibly playing video games before heading toward home or a nearby park. What happened after that remains a mystery. Marjorie never returned home. As evening turned into night, her f...
