Case No. 4: Missing & Murdered Black and Latina Women: The Stories That Deserve to Be Heard
Episode notes
Every missing person deserves urgency.
Every homicide deserves a thorough investigation.
Every family deserves answers.
Yet for many Black and Latina women, families and advocates have long raised concerns that disappearances and murders often receive less media attention and fewer public resources than similar cases involving other victims. Whether those perceptions stem from differences in media coverage, public awareness, or other factors, the result is the same for many families—they continue searching for answers while trying to ensure their loved ones are not forgotten.
In this special episode of Cold World Crime Time, Michelle examines the stories of Black and Latina women whose disappearances and murders have left lasting questions. Through verified case information, investigative timelines, and the voices of families and advocates, we explore the challenges these cases have faced and the ongoing efforts to bring justice, accountability, and greater public awareness.
This episode is about more than crime statistics.
It's about daughters.
Sisters.
Mothers.
Friends.
Women whose lives mattered long before they became headlines—or, in too many cases, were never given the headlines they deserved.
At Cold World Crime Time, we are committed to telling victim-centered, evidence-driven true crime stories with compassion, accuracy, and respect. We distinguish between verified facts, investigative findings, and publicly reported information while keeping every victim at the center of their own story.
Listener Discretion: This episode discusses homicide, missing persons, violence against women, and topics that may be difficult for some listeners.
