A clear look at the Tuskegee Experiment — what happened, how families were deceived, and why the trauma didn’t end when the study did.

This episode focuses on the history and the lasting mistrust it created around medical care and autopsies

It’s just past midnight when the pounding starts.
A flash of light. A shout of “Police!”
And in seconds, lives are changed forever.

In this episode, we dive into the history and controversy of no-knock warrants — how they started, what they were meant for, and how they became a symbol of danger and distrust in communities across America.

From the tragedy of Breonna Taylor to the everyday raids that never make the news, The Knock at Midnight explores what happens when justice kicks down the wrong door — and the silence that follows.

🔍 Because understanding the system is the first step to changing it.

In part 1, we discussed the circumstances surrounding the abduction of Ronald Dumas Jr. and the lack of urgency from law enforcement. We left off at the five suspects that Huntsville PD issued arrest warrants for.

In this episode, we dive into the criminal backgrounds of those suspects and how their previous offenses should’ve kept at least three of the suspects in jail but failed, which gave them the opportunity to kidnap Ronald.

[Bonus Episode 2]

37 year old Ronald Dumas Jr. is a Huntsville real estate agent and devoted father. Which is why after December 15, 2024 when no one had heard from him, family filed a missing persons report.

Days later, his car was found abandoned, his phone’s GPS was still moving but Huntsville PD insisted “maybe he left to start a new life”.

It wouldn’t be until February of 2025 that Huntsville PD would upgrade Ronald’s case from “missing person” to “abducted”.

Now, here we are almost a whole year later and Ronald Dumas Jr., is still missing!

From the Do It Fluid & Firesticks “Missing In…” archives, this is Bonus Ep, Devoted Father: What Happened To Ronald Dumas Jr.?

In 2025, a young Black student named Trey Reed is found partially hanging from a tree on a Mississippi college campus. His death is swiftly ruled a suicide, but the evidence tells a different story: a belt three times his size, no marks on his neck, and a GPS signal that kept moving after his death.

This is not just the story of one man. In this in-depth episode of "After Dark," we pull back the curtain on the haunting history of lynchings in Mississippi and explore the modern, disturbing pattern of "lynchings by suicide" that have been reported across the country.

We'll connect the dots from the era of Emmett Till to the suspicious deaths of men like Robert Fuller and Malcolm Harsch, asking the difficult question: When does a pattern of tragedies stop being a coincidence and start being a continuation of history?

On 8/22/20 friends, Taprice & Ariana took a ride from Dayton OH to Riverside OH to meet some friends, a ride they wouldn’t return home from.

Police responded to two (2) phone calls from residents in Riverside hearing shots and car tires screeching.

When they arrived on scene, officers found the two girls and not in a good way. 4 years later, still no one has been caught or questioned about this heinous incident.
