Episode 116: Where is Phoenix Coldon?


Listen Later

Phoenix Coldon, a 23-year-old African American woman, disappeared on December 18, 2011, after driving away from her parents’ home in Spanish Lake, Missouri. Her 1998 black Chevy Blazer was found abandoned two weeks later in East St. Louis, Illinois, but she was never located. Phoenix, an only child, was homeschooled, talented in fencing and piano, and attended the University of Missouri-St. Louis. She moved back home in 2011 after living independently, a likely challenging transition. Investigations revealed a secret boyfriend, a second phone, and her unenrollment from college, unknown to her parents. A selfie video showed her struggling emotionally, wanting to “start over.” Theories include abduction, homicide, sex trafficking, voluntary disappearance, or suicide. Despite media coverage, her case remains unsolved.
