The Unsolved Freeway Phantom Murders

From April 1971 to September 1972, the nation's capital was gripped by fear. Six young Black girls—all abducted from their own neighborhoods—were found murdered and dumped along highways in D.C. and Maryland. Their killer, still unidentified, became known as the Freeway Phantom.

In this episode, I walk you through the chilling story of each victim, the patterns that link them, the suspects who were never charged, and the institutional failures that allowed this serial killer to vanish without a trace.

We’ll also talk about:

• The haunting phone calls made by one of the victims during her abduction
• The controversial role race and class played in how the case was handled
• The enduring trauma faced by the victims’ families, still searching for answers
• And the terrifying possibility that the killer was someone hiding in plain sight

🎧 Grab your headphones for this one—it’s heartbreaking, infuriating, and unforgettable.
