S3 E8. MMIW: Ashlea Aldrich

Ashlea Aldrich, of the Omaha Tribe in Nebraska, was twenty nine years old and a mother to two boys. Her long term relationship with her sons' father was consistently marked by abuse against Ashlea, though charges were never brought against her boyfriend, despite multiple reported incidents of domestic abuse over the years. In January 2020, Ashlea was found nude in a field, near her boyfriend's abandoned SUV. No criminal charges have been brought in connection with her death.

Ashlea is one of far too many Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women and Girls across the United States and Canada.
