118: The Final Call: The Disappearance of Coral Hall

Fourteen-year-old Coral Hall made one last desperate call to a friend from a pay phone in Flint, Michigan on September 22, 1998—the day after her birthday. Just hours earlier, she had gone to the state Department of Human Services to report the abuse happening at home. But by the time help arrived, Coral was gone. For years, police believed she was a runaway. But beneath the surface was a history of family violence, neglect, and a system that failed to protect her. This episode traces Coral’s final days, the overlooked red flags, and the long road to the truth about what happened to her. 🎙️ She Goes by Jane tells the stories of unsolved cases of missing and unidentified women and girls. 📍 Flint, Michigan | 1998 📖 Featuring an original poem written in her honor, read by Aimee ➡️ Help bring attention to stories like Coral’s—subscribe and share this episode. 📍 Find us on Instagram & Facebook. 📚 Get Aimee’s book, Doe, now available via University of Akron Press, Bookshop.org, and Amazon. 📰 For more women-centered true crime content, subscribe to Aimee’s newsletter, GIRLHUNT.
