The Daughter Who Solved Her Mother’s Murder

About this episode

In this deeply personal and technical episode, we sit down with Megan Tomlinson to discuss a journey that feels like it was written for a true crime script—except it was her reality. Megan spent years teaching herself Open-Source Intelligence (OSINT) to help find missing persons, never realizing she would eventually use those exact tools to solve her own mother’s murder. We also pull back the curtain on the Hailey Buzbee case. Megan shares her involvement in the search for Hailey and the legislative push for Hailey's Law. We discuss the terrifying reality of digital grooming, why "runaway" labels are costing children their lives, and what parents need to know about the shift toward encrypted messaging apps.
