Our first story centers around 16-year-old Tioni Theus, whose life was tragically cut short when she was found murdered along the 110 Freeway in Los Angeles, CA on January 8th, 2022. Despite being a vibrant young girl, her case has seen little progress over the past three years and has remained unsolved with no known leads.

If you have any information that could help solve Tioni Theus's case, contact the California Highway Patrol at (323) 644-9557.

Our second story takes us to a different corner of the country, Cleveland, Ohio. Britney Hardwick was found by police on December 12th, 2020, at approximately 2:45am. She was shot and killed in a car parked in front of her boyfriend’s home on the 1400th block of East 176th Street in Cleveland. Her case remains unsolved, and the police have yet to make any arrests.

As for Britney Hardwick’s memory, I urge anyone with information about her case to please step forward. Contact the Cleveland police homicide unit at 216-623-5464.
