UNSOLVED MURDER: Faith Hedgepeth (Haliwa Saponi)

When UNC Chapel Hill student Faith Hedgepeth is murdered in her off campus apartment, the UNC community is shocked -- especially since it's been just four short years since their student body president, Eve Carson, was also murdered near her off campus home. But in 2024, Faith's alleged killer remains in jail nearly three years after his arrest. In this episode, we take a deep dive into Faith's story and speak with Faith's father, Roland Hedgepeth, about why he believes Faith's case remains open.
