Thanks for tuning back in to "No Tears For Black Girls." Samantha Paul here, and do I have a treat for y'all today! We're diving deep into J.C. Reedburg's latest masterpiece, "No Tears For Black Girls: Prison Pimp'd," available now for free on Amazon Kindle. But act fast, 'cause after today, it's Kindle exclusive. As always, we've switched up some deets to keep things on the DL, but trust, this story is as real as it gets.

Picture this: Gwinnett County, Georgia, just a stone's throw from the A. Inside Phillips State, it ain't about how hard you can throw a punch, but how slick you can play the game. And Dejuan Rivers? This man's got manipulation down to a science. From his tiny cell, he's pulling the strings on a criminal empire that stretches way past the barbed wire.

With nothing but smooth words, black market smokes, and a PhD in mind games, Dejuan's got a whole crew of desperate women wrapped around his finger. Sandra's sending money orders, Keisha's wiring cash no questions asked, Patricia's smuggling in burners, and Valerie's begging him to find her missing kid. They each think they're his one and only, but the gag is, they don't even know about each other.

It's a fragile operation, and when the ladies start getting too curious and the COs start sniffing around, Dejuan's world is on the verge of imploding. In a place where every move is calculated and trust can get you killed, one wrong step could send everything he's built tumbling down like a house of cards.

Tonya Walker, a 51-year-old Black mother, vanished in Sacramento on November 2, 2023. Her family searched for seven months to learn her body lay unclaimed at Mercy Hospital, where she’d died of cardiac arrest. The hospital delayed her death certificate by five months and stored her at an off-site morgue that allegedly harvested her organs without consent. Similar cases of missing Black bodies have emerged, fueling accusations of systemic neglect, organ trafficking, and medical racism.

On September 10th, 2025, the conservative movement was rocked when Charlie Kirk, founder of Turning Point USA, was murdered at Utah Valley University. Tyler Robinson, his killer, claimed he acted because Kirk "spreads too much hate." But Kirk's death may have triggered something far more sinister.

Just five days later, on September 15th, 21-year-old Demartravion "Trey" Reed was found hanging from an oak tree at Delta State University in Mississippi. What authorities initially called a suicide has sparked a chilling theory that's dividing the nation.

Was Trey Reed's death connected to Charlie Kirk's murder? Are we looking at a white supremacist revenge killing - where extremists, enraged by Kirk's assassination, targeted an innocent Black college student in retaliation?

In this episode, we examine the disturbing timeline, the evidence that's emerged, and the questions authorities don't want to answer. From Utah to Mississippi, from political assassination to racial violence - this is the story of two deaths that may be more connected than anyone wants to admit.

⚠️ This episode contains mature themes including discussion of racial violence, murder, and hate crimes. Listener discretion is advised.

In this powerful episode of No Tears For Black Girls, we explore the chilling case of Rebecca "Becky" Bliefnick, whose appearance on Family Feud with her husband became tragically prophetic. When Becky jokingly told Steve Harvey that her biggest mistake was "saying yes to my husband," she had no idea those words would foreshadow her own murder just months later.

On February 23rd, 2023, Becky was found shot to death in her Quincy, Illinois home by her estranged husband Timothy Bliefnick - the same man who smiled on national television while claiming "I love my wife." We dive deep into the investigation that revealed Tim's calculated plan to stalk and murder the mother of his three children, and examine how the system failed to protect Becky despite her desperate pleas for help.

But this episode goes beyond one tragic case. We also tell the story of Korryn Gaines, a 23-year-old Black mother from Baltimore who was killed by police in 2016 while trying to protect herself from an abusive partner. Despite facing similar domestic violence and systemic failures, Korryn's story received a fraction of the media attention that Becky's case generated.

Through these parallel stories, we examine the stark disparity in how our society responds to violence against women - and ask the difficult question: whose tears matter most? Why do some victims become household names while others are forgotten?

Join host Samantha Paul as we demand justice for ALL women and challenge the media's selective empathy. Because every woman deserves to have her story told with dignity, compassion, and the demand for justice - regardless of the color of her skin.
