Impact of Influence: The Murdaugh Family Murders and Other Cases

MURDERED: The Murder of Lori Paige
2026-11-12 17:59:00

On June 3, 2023, twelve-year-old Lori Paige was reported missing from her home in Tallahassee, Florida. She had just finished sixth grade. Police initially classified her as a runaway, but as the months passed, the search for Lori crossed state lines. It would take nearly two years to find her, and evidence uncovered during the search would point investigators to the person they believed had killed her.

In this episode of Black Girl Gone, I tell Lori’s story and look at what can be overlooked when a missing child is labeled a runaway.
