  • Deadly Friendship: The Shocking Case of Mahogany Jackson
    Dec 18 2024
    In this week’s episode of Weird True Crime, we dive into the tragic and infuriating case of Mahogany Jaquise Jackson—a young mother working hard to turn her life around when her dreams were violently taken from her. At just 20 years old, Mahogany was betrayed by people she thought she could trust, and her life ended in the most unimaginable way.

    Join us as we uncover Mahogany’s story, from her early days of compassion and resilience to the heartbreaking events that led to her untimely death. We discuss the investigation, the key evidence—including shocking video footage—and the fight for justice her family continues to pursue.

    This episode examines themes of loyalty, betrayal, and systemic challenges in seeking justice, all while honoring Mahogany’s legacy as a mother, daughter, and friend.

    If you or someone you know is affected by domestic violence or unsafe relationships, resources are available. Visit National Domestic Violence Hotline or call 1-800-799-SAFE (7233).

I've listened to over 30 audio books. This is the best most practical book I've ever listened to. It works and it is not manipulation--pure gold.
