## Resource

In this episode, we cover the devastating case of eight-year-old Cherish Periwinkle, whose excitement over a summer trip turned into tragedy after a stranger offered to “help” her family during a shopping trip in Jacksonville, Florida. We break down the timeline of that night, the security footage that captured her final moments, the investigation that followed, and the disturbing criminal history of the man responsible. This is a heartbreaking but important case that highlights manipulation, missed red flags, and the lasting impact on Cherish’s family. Listener discretion is advised.
