A mother of five attends an all-women’s sleepover in an upscale Georgia neighborhood.

By morning, she’s found face-down in the backyard.

And the story they tell?

It doesn’t add up.

Was it a fall… or a cover-up?

In this episode of Black, Brown, & Unsolved, we dig deep into the mysterious death of Tamla Horsford—the only Black woman at a party that would end in tragedy, silence, and more questions than answers.


Because when it comes to Black, Brown, and Indigenous lives—

the missing are too often forgotten, and the murdered are too easily dismissed.
