Summary

Life wasn’t always simple for 22-year-old Megan Waterman. She was a single mother, in a relationship with a questionable man, and struggling to make ends meet financially. Luckily, Megan was known for making the best out of complicated situations. Throughout her entire life, Megan was a fiercely independent leader who supported those she cared about. Megan would do anything for her loved ones—and that was especially true for Megan’s 3-year-old daughter, Lily Waterman. When Megan began sex work in 2009, she did it for Lily. And, in 2010, Megan tried to stop doing sex work for Lily. In late May of 2010, Megan and her boyfriend traveled to New York City so Megan could practice sex work one final time. Tragically, Megan never returned home. In this episode, Jac and Alexis delve into Megan's life story and the circumstances surrounding her disappearance. 🎟 Catch up to FOUR bonus episodes per month plus full video episodes over on Patreon: patreon.com/thefirstdegree ❤️ The Heavy Metal Project: theheavymetalproject.com 📸 Instagram: instagram.com/thefirstdegree 🕺 TikTok: tiktok.com/@thefirstdegreee 👤 Facebook: facebook.com/thefirstdegree ⚖️ On the Stand: (818) 446-6889 💩 Worst Thing You’ve Ever Done: (818) 446-6889 🤝 Advice: hello@thefirstdegreepodcast.com 🎟 Catch up to FOUR bonus episodes per month plus full video episodes over on Patreon: patreon.com/thefirstdegree 📸 Instagram: instagram.com/thefirstdegree 🕺 TikTok: tiktok.com/@thefirstdegreee 👤 Facebook: facebook.com/thefirstdegree   Learn more about your ad choices.
