We Are Resilient: An MMIP True Crime Podcast

MURDERED: LaTisha Brien

In 1999, there was no national spotlight on Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women. The movement, as we know it today, didn’t exist. There were no hashtags. No public campaigns. No national awareness.

That year, LaTisha Brien was murdered and for years, her family carried the weight of that loss alone. There was no justice. No recognition. No platform to speak the truth of what happened to her.

Now, more than two decades later, her loved ones have asked us to help share her story.
