    S10:E5: The Senseless Murder of Latricia Green (40) "Deadly Delay"

    Detroit, Michigan—Latricia Green was more than just a dedicated employee at Henry Ford Hospital; she was a cherished friend, a reliable co-worker, and a deeply loved presence in the lives of those who knew her. On the morning of August 22, 2025, she followed her usual routine and prepared for another day of work, but Latricia had no way of knowing it would be her last day on earth. Latricia Green did what women are often told to do. She asked for help. She documented the danger. She sought protection. She tried to survive. But protection on paper is not the same as protection in real life. Before her life was taken, Latricia had already raised the alarm. She had already tried to get the system to see the threat in front of her. A personal protection order was granted — but it was never served. And that delay was deadly.  In this episode of Senseless True Crime, we look at the murder of Latricia Green, a woman whose life was taken after warning signs had already surfaced and after the system had already been alerted. Her story raises painful questions about domestic violence, protective orders, and what happens when urgent threats are not treated with the urgency they deserve. This is a case about fear, delay, and a woman who should have had more time. Rest in Peace- Latricia Green 🕯️🕊️🙏 If you or someone you know is experiencing domestic violence, help is available.

    S10:E4: The Senseless Murder of Ebony Byrom (38) "Without Warning"

    ⚠️Content Warning: This episode includes discussion of domestic violence, emotional abuse, and descriptions of suicide. Listener discretion is advised.  Macomb Township, Michigan— On October 1, 2016,  38-year-old Ebony Byrom called 911 during a domestic dispute with her husband, 44-year-old Hal Byrom. Ebony told dispatchers that her husband needed to leave before the situation escalated.  But help did not arrive in time. While Ebony was still on the phone with 911, Hal opened fire, killing her inside their home. Ebony's teenage son was also inside the house at the time and later called 911 himself. After shooting Ebony, Hal turned the gun on himself in what prosecutors later described as a failed murder-suicide attempt.  Ebony’s murder is a devastating reminder that domestic violence does not always look chaotic from the outside. Sometimes the person in danger is doing everything right — calling for help, staying calm, asking the abuser to leave — and still, the violence finds them. This case is not just about a failed murder-suicide. It is about control, escalation, and the horrifying reality that for many victims, the most dangerous moment comes when they try to survive. Rest in Peace - Ebony Byrom 🙏🕊️🕯️ If you or someone you love is experiencing domestic violence, or if you feel unsafe in your relationship, please know that help is available.
