Black Girl Missing returns with a gripping and harrowing follow-up to the case of Na'Ziyah Harris, a 13-year-old girl from Detroit who vanished on January 9, 2024. In this episode, we explore the chilling details surrounding the trial and guilty plea of Jarvis Butts, the man charged with her murder and sexual assault. As the layers of this case unfold, we uncover a disturbing pattern of predatory behavior that spans generations within Na'Ziyah's own family. Join us as we navigate through the complexities of trauma, accountability, and the urgent need for community awareness. This episode is not just about the pursuit of justice for Na'Ziyah; it’s a call to action for all of us to recognize the signs of abuse and to protect our children.
