Summary

A woman goes missing under bizarre circumstances with a very clear suspect. Sound familiar? You probably haven't heard the story of Akia Eggleston, the 22-year-old black woman who went missing from Baltimore in 2017 when she was eight months pregnant. Despite a difficult pregnancy and suspicious circumstances surrounding her disappearance, Baltimore City Police suggested that she simply took off. But Akia didn't show up to her own baby shower, and her family knew something was horribly wrong. They have spent the last four years trying to get answers and justice for Akia Eggleston and her unborn child, and bring them both home.Find us everywhere: linktr.ee/attwgpodSupport us on Patreon: patreon.com/attwgpodSources: (Full list on our blog at andthentheyweregone.com) Where is Akia Eggleston?
