MISSING OUR VOICE TRUE CRIME (The Voice of Missing Persons and Homicide Victims))
My name is Tawana Spann, and I created Missing Our Voices because I know the heartbreak of losing a child. My son, Jabez Spann, went missing at 14 years old. I’m a mother who never got to bring her baby home—and I know I’m not alone.This podcast is for every person still searching for answers. Behind every missing person is a story too often silenced. Missing Our Voices is a true crime podcast that brings light to the lives stolen, the families shattered, and the questions that remain unanswered. We focus on the voices that have been lost in the noise—those of missing children, unsolved homicides, and cases that never received the attention they deserved. This is more than just storytelling—this is advocacy. Through powerful interviews, gripping case details, and raw emotional reflection, Missing Our Voices gives space to the mothers, fathers, siblings, and communities left behind. They speak, and we listen. The ache of not knowing where your child is—or what happened to your loved one—never fades. It's a pain marked by sleepless nights, false leads, and moments of hope that vanish just as quickly. But in that ache, there is also a fire: a determination to keep searching, to demand justice, and to never let a name be forgotten. Join us as we uncover the truth, honor the missing, and give voice to those silenced by violence and neglect. Their stories matter. Their names matter. And we won't stop telling them.
