About this episode

This episode explores the mysterious death of Shanquella Robinson during a birthday trip to Cabo.

In October of 2022, 25-year-old entrepreneur Shanquella Robinson left Charlotte, North Carolina for what was supposed to be a fun birthday getaway in Cabo with friends. Less than 24 hours later, she was dead. At first, her family was told she had died from alcohol poisoning—but inconsistent stories, a disturbing video, and conflicting autopsy reports would soon reveal a much darker and more complicated truth. In this episode, we look at Shanquella’s final hours, the so-called friends who returned home without her, and the unanswered questions her family is still fighting to have answered. This is her story… If you or someone you know has information about Shanquella Robinson’s death, you can contact the Charlotte, North Carolina FBI field office at 704-672-6100.
