True Crime with Xyla is a true crime podcast that focuses on bringing the public’s attention to lesser known cases. Each episode is researched, written, produced and hosted by me (Xyla). Every Wednesday, we revisit solved and unsolved stories that may not have made national headlines, but still matter deeply. My mission is to keep their names and stories in the public’s eye, and to re-tell each case with empathy, compassion, and the care every story deserves.
In this week's short episode, host Xyla talks about 3 missing persons cases that are currently unfolding.
Case #1: Kourtney Lynn King - Missing 16 year old Kourtney King was last seen on surveillance cameras on July 14th, 2025. Since then, her whereabouts are unknown. Please help us locate Kourtney!
