The Case of Joshlin Smith

from The Misery Machine · host The Misery Machine

This week, Drewby and Yergy head to South Africa to discuss the case of Joshlin Smith, a beautiful little girl who live with her mother and siblings in a small one room shack in the village of Middelpos. But when Joshlin went missing on February 19th, 2024, her community was in shock and went out looking for her. But when rumor spread that her mother, Kelly, sold her to a "sangoma" or "witch" for her skin and eyes, that same community demanded swift justice be served. As of the date of this recording in 2025, Joshlin has never been found.
