Show Notes

In October 1994 a young mom from a small town in South Carolina reported that she was carjacked on a rural road. Susan Smith claimed that an unknown Black man forced her out of her car at gunpoint and then drove away with her two toddlers in the backseat.  

The search for the boys and Smith’s emotional pleas for their return drew media attention from around the world for nine days. On this episode of History of the 90s host Kathy Kenzora looks back at the case and the shocking outcome.
