How did the disappearance of a vibrant 16-year-old girl expose systemic racial biases in law enforcement? Join me  as I  navigate the heart-wrenching story of Susana Morales, whose tragic journey from missing person to murder victim reveals the harrowing gaps in our justice system. I'll shed light on Susana's dreams and the tireless struggle of her family against an unresponsive police force, exploring the disturbing role of former Doraville officer Miles Bryant, now on trial for her kidnapping and murder.

Imagine rekindling a childhood friendship, only to find yourself entangled in a web of suspicion and unsettling behavior. This episode unravels the complex relationship between Alasha Bates and Miles Bryant, providing crucial context for the ongoing case. Hear Alasha's compelling account of her interactions with Miles, from reconnections to chilling encounters that left her questioning his true intentions. Her story offers a poignant lens through which we can better understand the gravity of the situation.

I also confront the pervasive issue of women's safety, crucially illustrated through Alasha's and Miles' interactions. By examining the alarming statistics and societal challenges women face, I  underscore the importance of respecting personal boundaries and the role of the criminal justice system. Learn about alternative therapeutic practices like yoga and chakra work, especially beneficial for people of color, as a means of coping with trauma. This episode promises an in-depth, thought-provoking discussion that extends beyond the courtroom and into the very fabric of our societal values.
