November 20, 2022 marked both Transgender Day of Remembrance and the 10-year-anniversary of Sage Smith's disappearance in Charlottesville, Virginia. Sage is still missing, but her case has been classified as a homicide. The man she was supposed to be meeting that night, Erik McFadden, has also been missing since shortly after her disappearance. We are re-releasing our two-part episode on Sage Smith in hopes of getting her name out there more and generating new leads.

On November 20, 2012, 19-year-old Sage Smith was supposed to meet a man she had been seeing. She told her roommate where she was going and headed down to Charlottesville, Virginia's Main Street, where they were supposed to meet. Sage has never been seen after that night. Police spoke with the man she was supposed to meet that night, Erik McFadden, but he disappeared from the area just days after Sage. While he did give conflicting stories via phone and email, police have never been able to interview him in person.

Now, 10 years later, both Sage and Erik have missing person reports filed on them, and a community is wondering why this case is still unsolved. Her family blames the fact that Sage is a black, transgendered woman for the lack of police response and publicity as compared to similar cases of white women in the area. They know that there are people out there who hold the answers to this case and have the ability to bring Sage home.
