About this episode

This episode tells the story of Tyeasha Starks, a young mother who was murdered during a custody exchange, and the ongoing search for justice by her family.

On February 20, 2023, 23-year-old Tyeasha Starks went to pick up her young son in Jackson, Tennessee. What should have been a routine custody exchange ended with Tyeasha being shot and killed. Tyeasha was a devoted mother and college student whose family says she was trying to navigate an increasingly strained co-parenting relationship. In the years since her death, no criminal charges have been filed, and her loved ones continue to seek answers. On this episode of Black Girl Gone, I tell the story of Tyeasha Starks and the circumstances surrounding her murder.
