🎄 12 Days of Christmas on Black, Brown, & Unsolved.
This is not an unsolved case… and that’s exactly why it needed to be covered.
In this episode, we examine the case of Armond Langford, a man with a documented history of violent crime who was released early and allowed back into the community… only to go on and commit one of the most terrifying crimes imaginable.
A Louisville mother was kidnapped at knifepoint.
Her two children were in the car.
She was stabbed.
And she was forced to help rob a bank to survive.
This episode isn’t about race.
It’s about systems.
It’s about shock probation, recidivism, and how someone serving a 14-year sentence can walk free after just a few years… while others sit behind bars for decades over non-violent offenses.
It’s about how we define “low risk.”
Who gets second chances.
And who pays the price when those decisions go wrong.
And this… this is the story of what happens when habitual offenders are allowed to walk.
