Update: Akia Eggleston

We have huge news in the Akia Eggleston case. Akia was a 22-year-old pregnant woman who went missing from Baltimore, Maryland on May 3, 2017. While there was a clear suspect, no arrests were made, and her case went cold. Akia's story started gaining more notoriety toward the end of 2021, and on February 3, 2022, Michael Robertson was arrested for the murders of Akia and her unborn child.

In this episode, we break down this news, go over the probable cause affidavit, and talk about theories. This is followed by a re-release of our original episode on Akia's case from September of 2021.
