Akia Eggleston Update: The Trial

We are also re-releasing our update episode on Akia Eggleston, which details Robertson's arrest and delves into the Probable Cause Affidavit.

On May 3, 2017, Akia Eggleston, who was eight months pregnant, was planning to move into a new home with Michael Robertson, the father of her child. That day, she went to several banks and ATMs and withdrew large sums of money to pay expenses related to the new apartment. That evening, she sent a Facebook message inviting someone to her baby shower, but then all communication from the young mother stopped. Four days later, Akia failed to show up to her own baby shower, and her family knew something was wrong.

It would take over four years, but police arrested the father of her child, Michael Robertson for her murder and that of their unborn son, Anubis. This week, we're bringing you the trial of Michael Robertson, and justice for Akia and Anubis.
