In this episode, I revisit the story of Phoenix Coldon, a 23-year-old woman who vanished after leaving her home in Spanish Lake, Missouri, on December 18, 2011. As her parents searched desperately for answers, they uncovered a life filled with secrets they never knew Phoenix was keeping. From mysterious relationships to a haunting video message, Phoenix’s case is one filled with twists, theories, and heartbreaking questions that still remain unanswered more than a decade later.

In this re-released episode of Black Girl Gone, we revisit the heartbreaking story of 16-year-old Tioni Theus. In January 2022, Tioni was found murdered on the side of a freeway in Los Angeles — a young life taken far too soon. When we first told her story in 2023, there were still no answers. Sadly, that hasn’t changed. Tioni’s case remains unsolved, and the fight for justice continues. This episode is a reminder that her story still matters — and that someone out there knows the truth.
