  • When the System Fails Our Sons: The Terron Evans Jr. Story
    May 20 2025

    On January 8, 2021, 26-year-old Terron Evans Jr. was found unresponsive in upstate New York. The official ruling? Suicide by overdose. But the autopsy told a different story — no pills, no residue, no signs of overdose. And no real answers.

    In this episode of After the Headlines, host Solomon Richberg, LCSW, dives into the facts that don’t add up, the timeline that raises questions, and the mother — Jennifer Baxtron — who refused to stay silent. We explore the red flags in the investigation, the pattern of premature case closures, and the emotional toll of institutional silence.

    Terron’s story isn’t just about one young man. It’s about how systems fail Black families — and what happens when a mother turns grief into a movement.

    🎧 Plus: Join us Live with Jennifer Baxtron on Thursday, May 22 @ 8PM EST on TikTok.

  • Gabriel Fernandez: When the System Looked Away
    May 13 2025

    Gabriel Fernandez was only 8 years old when his life was cut short — not just by the people who harmed him, but by the very institutions that failed to protect him. In this episode of After the Headlines, we revisit Gabriel’s life, the warning signs that were ignored, and the heartbreaking breakdown of the systems meant to keep children safe.

    This is not just a story about tragedy — it’s a call to action. We’ll explore the legal aftermath, the cultural reckoning, and what still needs to change today. Gabriel’s name should never be forgotten. Let it be a turning point.

  • Tamla Horsford: What Happened After the Birthday?
    May 6 2025

    Tamla Horsford was the only Black woman at an all-white slumber party in Forsyth County, Georgia. By morning, she was found dead in the backyard — and the official explanation? An accidental fall.

    But the bruises, inconsistencies, and missing evidence suggest a story far more complicated — and deeply unsettling.

    In this premiere episode of After the Headlines: Unheard Stories, Solomon Richberg, LCSW, unpacks the case, the history of Forsyth County, and the unanswered questions Tamla’s family — and the public — are still demanding be addressed.
