The final episode is here! Let us all take a moment to mourn the loss of the seven people who were ruthlessly taken away from their families on that fateful night of December 28th, 2000. Their names, Ronette Abrams, Alfred Goodwin, George Porter, Malik Harris, Calvin Helton, and Tyrone Long Jr., must not fade into oblivion. We owe it to them to remember their names and the potential futures that were robbed from them. Let their tragic fate serve as a stark reminder that we must strive to create a society that values human life above all else.

The husband killed them before he left for work then went to the girlfriend's house to change his bloody clothes or he did it naked and took a shower, then got ready for work.

I grew up the Tequila Suter. This devastated our community. She was a beautiful and smart young woman who had her life taken from her in such a horrid way.

There's about 4 of these cases that it's the baby daddy in. Some of them it's appallingly obvious. I feel like there's people lying to protect them or simply holding information inside and it's sad. Holding things inside eats away at you. And I understand some might be afraid of retaliation but if you know where there's evidence or something that's going to get him arrested, he's not coming for you in lockup. We need to start doing better for the victims out there. These pregnant women just wanted to have their babies. it's heartbreaking. Lastly, I believe we need to start charging for those unborn babies. Babies are surviving both younger and younger so they need to be counted as a separate charge when mom is killed.

I love this podcast! I saw you on the Tamron Hall show and decided that your show would be my first podcast EVER! And I am absolutely not disappointed, not at all. I am a 52 yr old black woman who is intrigued by true crime and the lack of attention shown to black women in the media. Please don't ever stop telling their stories. God bless you and yours.

I'm really enjoying the show. My only complaint is the long pauses between sentences. It's kind of odd.
