S9:E5: The Senseless Murder of Kada Scott (23) "Fatal Trap"

Philadelphia, PA—In this episode, we trace the heartbreaking timeline that led up to the disappearance and murder of 23-year-old Kada Scott, who stepped away from her shift at a Chestnut Hill care facility and vanished into the night– from her disappearance that made national headlines, to the tragic discovery behind an abandoned middle school two weeks later. 

We will dive into the systemic failures that allowed a known predator with a violent history to remain free. 

We also explore how a flurry of text messages lured a promising young woman into a fatal trap. 

Kada Scott's story is a painful reminder that the systems designed to protect us often fail the most vulnerable. Kada's life was taken by a senseless act of violence, her voice will never be silenced. 

Senseless True Crime stands with the Scott family in their fight for "Kada’s Law"- which is a call to action for legislative reform- that prioritizes victims over violent offenders.

Listen to Season 9: Episode 5 to find out the heartbreaking details of this case. 

Rest in Peace - Kada Scott 🕯️🙏🕊️
