This case was originally told in an episode released in January 2022, but we pulled Cyntoia's story to be one of sixteen episodes from the archives we'll be bringing you every Thursday now through end of year... for good reason! We highly recommend you listen to each episode between now and end of 2024, and follow us on Instagram @crimejunkiepodcast so you're the first to know what's coming next! <3
